Re: [microsound] "Expanded Cinema"

I second that recommendation, it's a great book.  What I find really 
intriguing is the information about the series of experimental video shows 
done at KQED in the late '60s/early '70s.  The most famous one probably 
being Music With Balls (or For Balls?)  with Terry Riley playing his 
time-lag-accumulator on a set of metallic balloons and video feedback!

Has anyone seen any of those old KQED shows?  The only information I could 
find online the last time I looked was that some group was in the process of 
trying to have them restored.  I can't imagine growing up watching that kind 
of stuff on public television!  Though by the time I was a kid KQED was 
showing lots of Doctor Who which is even better!
