Spectres
Of The Spectrum
by Craig Baldwin
1999; 16mm; 91:00
Agitprop
genius Craig Baldwin, director of TRIBULATION 99 and SONIC OUTLAWS,
returns with his grandest work to date! SPECTRES OF THE SPECTRUM
plunders Baldwin's treasure trove of early television shows, industrial
and educational films, Hollywood movies, advertisements and cartoons,
combining these with live-action footage, no-budget special effects,
and relentless narration to generate a wholly original paranoid
science-fiction epic.
BooBoo, a
young telepath, and her father, Yogi, are revolutionaries pitted
against the "New Electromagnetic Order". Their story, set in the
year 2007 in a blighted Nevada outpost, is interwoven with a history
of the development of electromagnetic technologies, from X-rays
to atom bombs, from television to the Internet. "At once politically
charged and wildly imaginative, this unique extravaganza confirms
director Baldwin as an avant-garde superstar". -- Christian Science
