In New York he was an influential figure in the New American Cinema, although he came to film-making relatively late.

Este libro se basó en artículos que publiqué entre 1967 y 1970 en The Los Angeles Free Press, el primero y el más influyente de los periódicos underground que florecieron en los Estados Unidos en esa época. Las columnas sobre nuevos medios aparecieron bajo el logo "Cine expandido", un término acuñado entre 1966 por el cineasta experimental y artista pionero de multimedios norteamericano Stan Vanderbeek.
