Kenneth Anger: Film as Magical Ritual(de)
Anger discusses his Aleister Crowley-inspired theories of art: How he views his camera like a wand and how he casts his films, preferring to consider his actors, not human beings but as elemental spirits.

This is as direct an explanation of Anger’s cinemagical modus operandi as I have ever heard him articulate anywhere.
