4 X 8 = 16 (1966)

Overview

One of the earliest multi-image presentations, creating four frames of action in a single screen, then subsequently layering full-size footage of a cavorting film crew over the four frames, creating a wall of visuals that overwhelm the viewer. Color 8mm UCLA Student Film, Preserved by the UCLA Film and Television Archive. "A whimsical entertaining psychedelic dada film, this is a New American Cinema experiment in the use of multiple imagery, not in superimposition, but in simultaneous projection on individual areas of the screen, accompanied by a lively folk-rock music track"--Creative Film Society 16 mm. film rental & sale catalogue, 1975. [does not have folk music]
