Bronenosets Potyomkin (Battleship Potemkin) (1925)
Director: Sergei M. Eisenstein, Grigori Aleksandrov
Producer: Jacob Bliokh
Production Company: Goskino
Sponsor: k-otic.com
Considered one of the most important films in the history of silent pictures, as well as possibly Eisenstein's greatest work, Battleship Potemkin brought Eisenstein's theories of cinema art to the world in a powerful showcase;
his emphasis on montage, his stress of intellectual contact, and his treatment of the mass instead of the individual as the protagonist.
The film tells the story of the mutiny on the Russian ship Prince Potemkin during the 1905 uprising.

Final cut of the full-length movie for the classic album. This utilizes the backdrop films the band used during their initial US, UK, and French tours for the album, with additional footage used for "Breathe" and live footage from 1972 added to "Time". The mix of the album for the video contains extended versions of "Speak To Me" and "On the Run".

OK I am sure some of you will like this...
Me? I think this is one of the most over rated albums of all time. No heart or soul to it at all in my opinion and I feel that it benefited immensely from being released at a time when stereo systems were becoming more and more affordable.
I didn’t think that Tim Leary was a hero
'...what it boiled down to was that I didn’t think that Tim Leary was a hero. Not a hero to me, anyway. In fact, if I were going to be real precise about what I think, I think Tim Leary was probably the worst thing that ever happened to the psychedelic movement. He made everything difficult for all of us; he wouldn’t listen to any of us who tried to tell him to back off a bit. He was most probably primarily responsible for all the draconian laws we have today on the use of psychedelics and other mind-altering things.'- Owsley Stanley on Timothy Leary

...Sometimes I wonder whether my life
is scripted. The $, the power, the coordination behind the scenes to
stop us. It will all be exposed..
