I agree whole-heartedly about Lance Austin Olsen. There is a remarkable imagination at work here, and your film analogy rings true, but I was thinking more in terms of horror rather than noir! I loved the powerful sense of doom in ‘Meditation…’, some only-just-human noises emerging from a droning and scraping backdrop.
I do though disagree with one of your [slight] misgivings about Linda Caitlin Smith -I enjoy her ‘noodling’! What a great series, and the booklet is fascinating in terms of context – it’s clear that Canada has its own distinct non-European and non-USA voices, but with no overt school of thought or practice.
