Science Friction (1959): Experimental film remained an active force through a transitional period in the 1950s, with seeds planted for what was to come. Here director Stan Vanderbeek assembles a rapid-fire visual collage of photos and other print elements depicting political figures, celebrities, and other images of popular consumption, resulting in a kind of visual and aural tension reflected in the title itself.
