New Book: No Dog

A new fashionable way of walking swept through the snazzier sections of the dying American empire in the first quarter of the 21st century, namely walking as if you had a fancy dog on a leash.

Among these street aristocrats one could glimpse now and then a number of clones walking and running like their fashion idols, with one shoulder higher than the other, heads lifted in expectation of the wind ruffling their tresses, and a covert vibe that read "Dig my dog?"

I tried. But when I looked at where the object of their pride should have trotted or minced, there was nothing. No dog.

interview | animation | bio | poetry | happenings

directed by Julian Semilian | produced by Clark Peterson

Director Julian Semilian’s documentary-collage centers around the life and times of.... From Dada to quadrupedalism, this ode to free-thinking and free-wheeling.is s a playful paean that counters all forms of functional fixedness

Julian and Andrei met in Italy in 1966 as both fled post WWII Romania – they actually arrived together in the US. If you get them together and give them a drink – they’ll regale you with stories of jumping from bridges, seductions by princesses and appearing in Pasolini films! It’s a pleasure to watch these two avant-savants meld on screen

Experimental filmmaker Julian Semilian is a film editor, teacher, poet, translator, and novelist. What he won’t tell you is that he learned his art from Bernie Gribble, legendary editor on a number midcentury films, including Death Wish. Julian is a very modest, fantastic director, producer, translator, and a well-loved professor of film. Learn more here
