The Throwback Thursdays Retro Video Project Pres; Destroy All Monsters pt.2

Another in my Throwback Thursdays Retro Video Project. This week; Destroy All Monsters pt.2;
This collection features videos using films made by Flux Films from 1965-67. Flux Films was an American Dada art collective that made a series of silent short films meant to be played at art showings, usually on a repeating loops. Some of their members included Yoko Ono and John Cale.

DESTROY ALL MONSTERS ~ "TO PLANET M240";


Made with a short film by George Maciunas

DESTROY ALL MONSTERS ~ "GO FOR IT"


Made with a short film by Robert Watts.

DESTROY ALL MONSTERS ~ "ELECTRO BANSHEE";


Made with another short film, an Op-Art piece by George Maciunas.

DESTROY ALL MONSTERS ~ "FADES BEFORE FIVE";


Another George Maciunas film, a collage called "Sears Catalogue".

DESTROY ALL MONSTERS ~ "NIXONOXIN";


This track features Richard Nixon's resignation speech, apparently recorded off the TV (one of the group can be heard clapping). Accordingly for this track I made a collage of still images of Nixon charictures.
