Response to Scratch Film Junkies "To the Beat"

For starters I didn't really know what to think as I was watching this film. With very little background in experimental film I didn't really know what to look for. I tried focusing and looking too much into it. I also tried just letting the images pass before my eyes, but the beat began to get annoying. About midway through the film the combination of colors and crashing percussion started to agitate me. I got the feeling of chaos surrounding me. I felt like a middle school band director in a room full of bratty kids bashing on and misusing all the instruments. Just wanted to yell, "STOP! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING!" I don't have a good understanding or appreciation of the techniques they were using. Hopefully I will be able to make some sense of it all to better appreciate it in the future.
