I love Brakhages short experimental films, particulay I...Dream, which is remarkably different from his other films as it features a sound track. The soundtrack is a collage of Stephen foster's songs, composed by Joel Heartling.
In places Brakhage has scatched lyrics form the song into the films emulsion. The film is composed of "small minimalist images" and often uses a steady mounted camera.
In other experimental films, Brakhage painted or scratched abstract designs directly onto celluloid, and films of his such as Dog Star Man (1962) use repetitive or unrelated imagery in ways that often alienate viewers.
