- Summary
- Since 1950, Mekas has been keeping a film diary. To keep a film (camera) diary, is to react (with the camera) immediately, now, this instant: either you get it now, or you don't get it at all. To get it now, as it happens, demands the total mastery of one's tools (in this case, a Bolex camera). All the structuring (editing) is done right there, during the shooting, in the camera. Walden contains materials from the years 1965-69, strung together in chronological order.
