"Peter Kubelka is the perfectionist of the film medium: and, as I honor that quality above all others at this time (finding such a lack of it now elsewhere), I would simply like to say: Peter Kubelka is the world's greatest film-maker - which is to say, simple: see his films! ... by all means/above all else ... et cetera." - Stan Brakhage
