[Note for 3-5: Yes, this is not the ideal way to experience these. But I’m writing a short piece on Baillie (and Chick Strand, as seen below) and needed to know more about his work than what I’ve read in books and on the interwebs. Besides, I’ll be seeing all of these on 16mm when it screens here.]
