SUN RA
MAGIC SUN

A film by PHILL NIBLOCK featuring SUN RA & HIS SOLAR ARKESTRA. Composer, photographer and filmmaker Phill Niblock’s classic of experimental underground filmmaking with a sensational soundtrack by pianist Sun Ra and the members of his Solar Arkestra! Shot in the mid ’60s, when the Arkestra was based in New York, this film was produced using a unique negative process andultra-tight close-ups on the moving hands and mouths of the musicians. The result is a virtually abstract music film, mastered from a new print in all its incredibly sharp black & white glory. SPECIAL FEATURES: A gallery of exclusive mid- 60s Sun Ra photos along with 4 astonishing, never heard Ra philosophical proclamations also from the Magic Sun period. “Featuring rare & exclusive SUN RA footage, photos & audio”
