Watch NowA dynamo whose thunderous potential was cut short by his premature death in July, 2012, Japanese moving-image artist Stom Sogo was a romantic rebel if ever there was one. For over two decades he created a hair-raising, retina-burning body of distinctive and aggressively beautiful films and videos.

Watch NowIn Guided By Voices, Sogo constructs a film version of Dennis Cooper's novel Guide. The highly abstracted, colored digital video (shot on video and Super-8) evokes a psychedelic experience. As Sogo recalls: "It was 5:45 AM; [I was] crashing at a friend's h ...
Watch Now"A vaporous, stop-motion continuum of barely legible images dynamized by a pulsating electronic soundtrack. Although he draws on a bunch of avant-garde classics from Ernie Gehr's Reverberation to Brakhage's hand-painted films, Sogo's voice is assured and a ...
Watch Now"The film begins within Thoreauan-Brakhage territory, with black-and-white shots of leaves in a forest. Slowly, to the sounds of electronic noise, the images transform into blotchy green, yellow and purple compositions that become increasingly abstract thr ...
