A short video, using sock puppet actors, focusing on two incidents within the life and times of Allen Ginsberg; (1) a segment for an appearence on Firing Line w/ William F. Buckley, and (2) a sound collage from the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago, IL. with Ginsberg chanting over top.

  • Peculiar and delightful. Do you have any of the original video files from which you acquired the audio? It'd be great if you could upload them.

  • I don't know. I can tell you that some off the voices from Section Two are: Ed Sanders, Tom Hayden, David Dellinger, Rennie Davis, and Ginsberg. The first section is obviously William F. Buckley and Ginsberg from an episode of Firing Line. I can't remember where I found the audio from Section Two. But it would be fairly easy to find if you were looking for video concerning the Chicago DNC in '68. All the audio is from their and the chanting in the background in Ginsberg in Lincoln Park.

  • Yeah, there's actually some video footage of Ginsberg chanting outside the 68' DNC in Chicago in the film "Chicago 10." I guess I was really just hoping I could find that entire Firing Line interview. I'm sure its out there somewhere...

  • Thank you samgould for this beautiful Video.

  • umm..actually the world was MUCH more violent back then.

    There were riots all the time all over the country. And there were more protests..so really we're doing alot better than than the boomer generation..as pathetic as that fact is.

  • This is absolutely brilliant. Very entertaining.

  • The moral of this video is that beauty is only skin deep. Unfortunately no one takes the time to look deeper before they use the knife to cut out what they don't like to see.

  • Exceptional. Top video.
