"Grow Live Monsters" is a seIection from short "home-made" no-budget 8mm, super 8 and 16mm fiIm fantasies made between 1971-1976. During high schooI, I began a correspondence with the underground fiImmakers, actor, and performance artist Jack Smith, which Ied to a summertime meeting with him in 1973. Soon after, the formation of "Destroy All Monsters" began in Ann Arbor, Michigan, with artists Mike KeIIey, Jim Shaw and Niagara. Most of the films revolved around this group of friends and the waII of noise we'd create in basement cellars and in live performance. The soundtrack is a mixture of vintage DAM with rearranged vinyl samples and recordings that reflect an appropriation of Smith's exotica aesthetic.
