"As crucial as the smells and tactile impact of the performances were to Pauline’s vision, Reiss’s films package the carnage into Lynchian nightmares transplanted from the open-air parking lots and fairgrounds to unreal space at once infinite and claustrophobic. His films synthesize footage from multiple primitive video cameras, depriving the film audience of the live attendees’ ability to scan the chaos from a distance."
