Synopsis

This spin-off from Emshwiller's original concept for *Relativity* (1966) continued his vision of exploring "space in a kind of flying camera, a dream of flying, a kind of sensual, sexual imagery where you were constantly going into an unknown space." In the piece, a trio of dancers—Carolyn Carlson, Emery Hermans, and Bob Beswick—appear "first in leotards, then in bluejeans, then naked, as they 'pass through rituals of movement.'"

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 5

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
