FLicKeR
BY NIK HILL
Poet, artist and mystic Brion Gysin believed that the seemingly simple dream machine he created would revolutionize human consciousness. Director Nik Sheehan takes us on a journey into Gysin’s life—his art, his complex ideas and his friendships with some of the 20th century's key counterculture figures. Features luminaries like William S. Burroughs (in archival footage), Marianne Faithfull, Genesis P-Orridge of Psychic TV, Iggy Pop, Kenneth Anger and DJ Spooky, FLicKeR is a hypnotic documentary. (2008, 72 min, digital video)
