In 2002, when the Virginia Film Festival theme was WET, I gathered a hit
parade of experimental programmers (Scott MacDonald, Mark McElhatten, Kathy
Geritz, Steve Seid, Ralph McKay, John Columbus, Patti Bruck, and Abina
Manning) to join me in programming experimental films on water and fluids.

Frye, Lynn Hershman, and Eve Heller. Here are the titles I pulled off the
