Our guest on this episode is the American filmmaker Nathanial Dorsky, a prolific and poetic filmmaker who has been making short experimental films since the mid 1960’s. His book Devotional Cinema is essential reading for anyone interested in the transformative nature of film. We discuss shooting the light on a plant, his approach to open form editing and why he only shows work at 18 fps. We also talk about his relationship with Stan Brakhage, who of course, we named this podcast after. Thank you to Graeme Hogg (aka Hogge)for recording his own 16mm projector running at 18 fps for this episode. This episode of Into the Mothlight is sponsored by The Film and Video Poetry Society
