Eye Myth
''Eye Myth'' is an experimental short film by Stan Brakhage, produced in 1967. The film has a running time of only nine seconds, but took about a year to produce. ==Production==
Brakhage described the film's title as follows:
In the eyes, constantly, the eyes are flaring with little... stories, little forms and shapes, some of which are quite disturbing, like the swastika... The little myth that's made up of bits and pieces of painted things onto a piece of film that’s called an Eye Myth. In other words, it’s not a word myth; myth means mouth, actually... but an Eye Myth is kind of beautifully oxymoronic.〔Commentary by Stan Brakhage on ''By Brakhage: An Anthology, Volume 1,'' taken from 2002 interview with Bruce Kawin〕 ''Eye Myths abstract style, achieved by painting images directly onto the film cells, was inspired when Brakhage was diagnosed with a condition causing rapid eye movement.〔(Review of ''By Brakhage: An Anthology'' by Jake Euker ) PopMatters, 15 September 2003 - accessed November 17, 2010〕 In producing the film, he hoped to achieve a nervous system feedback "through the physiology of the proximity of the eye and the brain."〔 ''Eye Myth'' took Brakhage about a year to produce.〔〔MacDonald, Scott (2005) ''A critical cinema: interviews with independent filmmakers,'' p64-66〕 He attributes the film's lengthy production period to his being skeptical that "you could make a myth that was just vision,”〔 a doubt that was resolved only by actually "doing it."〔 Brakhage described the film, despite its short length, as being "intrinsically epic."〔 Brakhage has screened ''Eye Myth'' alongside Jan Troell's ''The Emigrants'', and argued that "if you give it a chance, the ''weight'' of this nine-second film will balance the length of Treoll's film."〔 Brakhage later re-edited images from ''Eye Myth'' into the 26-minute work ''The Horseman, the Woman and the Moth'' (1968),〔 and the two-minute long ''Eye Myth Educational'' (1972).
