Summary |
Through the Looking Glass examines John Cage's interactions and collaborations with avant-garde filmmakers, and in turn seeks out the implications of the audiovisual experience on Cage's career. The examples chosen highlight moments of rupture within Cage's notions of the audiovisual experience and the medium-specific ontology of a work of art |
