Some of Stan Brakhage's films were intended to be silent.
Sound can sometimes distract the viewer from experiencing images in a different light.
I'm sure that Lee has carefully thought about this and adds something new that Stan would've appreciated,
but let's not forget that his main objective was for us to learn to see again.
I'd love to know what Lee's thoughts are on this.
Thanks for those links, hipster.
