But didn't Mr Warhol himself say something like, he
wanted people to be able to wander in and out of the
cinema and just see bits of the film at various
points?
I remember reading this, and thinking it was so much
like the concept of a video installation and that
maybe Mr Warhol had in effect invented the video
installation in this way.
Of course he was still planning to exhibit in a
cinema, and his work wasn't looped but constantly
changing (which to me seems like a much more
interesting idea, that various people might see
something and think they had all seen the same thing
but had seen it at different times)
I'm not sure which of his films he was talking about
however. I think it might have been empire?
