Multimedia artist Doug Aitken embarked on what is easily the most ambitious cross-country rail journey of the 21st century: over 24 days, he traveled from New York to California aboard a nine-car train full of musicians, visual artists, and curators, stopping along the way to mount dazzling, site-specific happenings. Comprised of 62 one-minute films that document the before, during, and after of each participant’s experience/performance, this incredible experiment in cross-country creativity includes musical luminaries like Ariel Pink, Thurston Moore, THEEsatisfaction, Cat Power, Suicide, Giorgio Moroder, and a dozen others. This exquisite and eclectic grab bag of a doc is not to be missed.
