Disorderly thoughts on synesthesia and other mysteries of the human sensorium ’ is the subtitle of the lecture of American radical and experimental filmmaker  Ken Jacobs ( USA ). Ken Jacobs began filmmaking in the mid-fifties with the seven-hour long  Star Spangled to Death ( 1957-59 /2003-4 ). During 1960s he was an important figure in Underground Film ; aspiring to a democratic rather than demagogic cinema he created The Millennium Film Workshop . He devised a unique system of live film-projection performances The Nervous System, in which he plays with the flickering effect of projecting the same film a few frames apart , deriving a 3D-effect from standard 2D-film , using most often archival or found footage . Since 2000  he has performed  The Nervous Magic Lantern, a single projection set-up , utilising neither film nor video .
