Merce by Merce by Paik Part One: Blue Studio: Five Segments 1975-1976
Viewers interested in modern cinema often explore Merce by Merce by Paik Part One: Blue Studio: Five Segments 1975-1976 because of its cast, story direction, and audience popularity.
Blue Studio: Five Segments is a groundbreaking work of videodance by postmodern master Merce Cunningham and his then filmmaker-in-residence, Charles Atlas. In a series of short pieces choreographed and performed specifically for video space, Cunningham is multiplied, overlaid and transported from the studio to a series of unexpected landscapes. Cunningham's gestural dance is manipulated to the accompaniment of a disjunctive audio collage that includes the voices of John Cage and Jasper Johns.
