Someone asked me this question a few month before Brakhage died, so I
asked him. He could not remember the company he did the commercial for.
"Downey" did not ring a bell when I mentioned it. He has always seemed a
little proud that the technique in the commercial seemed innovative to
many in the "industry." I trust that someone on this list has access to
the January 1973 issue of "Artforum," a special Eisenstein./Brakhage
issue that's worth getting. I can't lay my hands on my copy at the
moment. Anyway, it has a filmography prepared with his help that
includes the commercial work, and I'm pretty sure it included a
reference to that commercial, and I too remember "Scott." So, someone
please post the info from that issue.
