Immersion, a buzz word in the realm of virtual entertainment, has been the holy grail of cinematic technologies for more than half a century. Cinerama, a film display system involving three synchronized projectors and a screen wide enough to encompass the viewer’s field of vision, was introduced in 1952. This is Cinerama, a film made to present the system, contains a rollercoaster sequence that is a continuous point of view shot taken from the frontmost seat on the coaster.

The few vintage vinyl fanatics who know Antrell’s album classify it as “Sunshine Pop,” a post Beach Boys style prevalent in Southern California in the mid- to late-1960s. From what I’ve been able to hear of the album—only three songs so far-—this is only a partly accurate description; I’d call much of the material soft rock.

A Note from the Editor-in-ChiefI feel as though I grew up with Mel Bochner as part of my art education in NYC in the late 70’s. Bochner’s work reached across the vast spectrum of young artists at the time. I remember that he kept and keeps both old school conceptualists and painters happy in perhaps the same ways. I thank Mel for this issue as well as the writers and our wonderful editor.

There are, of course, plenty of books, websites, television programs, museum exhibitions, and so on that draw attention to and discuss female rock artists.

PA:How about in relation to your use of sound, specifically? It seems to me that sound has become a more obviously compositional element in some of your recent work. PP:Moving into sound seems natural after working with moving images.
