[Frameworks] RIP Gene Youngblood

[Dominic Angerame]

I was also sorry to hear of Scott’s passing. He was such a great
supporter/promoter of experimental cinema. When he was teaching at the
College of Santa Fe he was one of Canyon’s biggest renters of films for his
class. Viewing experimental cinema via celluloid was a major concern of
his. He felt his students needed to view the work in the format in which it
was created. Showing cinema as cinema was one of his major concerns. He
will be missed.

Thank you Scott!

Dominic
