This edited Ektachrome home movie with titles documents a 1959 street fair, upper Grant Avenue, San Francisco--the center of Beat culture. The film includes shots of filmmaker Dion Vigne and his wife Loreon, artist and occultist Marjorie Cameron and her daughter Crystal, artist Wallace Berman and his wife Shirley, and Beat poet and surrealist Bob Kaufman.
In Dion Vigne’s bopping “North Beach,” a five-minute 1958 film that exults in the textures, colors and motion of the neighborhood, a kaleidoscope of fast-cut images and patterns fills the screen.
An animation by Dion Vigne
Stroboscopic Images consists of pulsating abstract, geometric shapes.
