...Interplay. The money alone that goes into commercial production is stupefying. Film Director Stanley Kubrick, himself something of a big spender (2001: A Space Odyssey cost $11 million), observed recently that "a feature film made with the same kind of care as a commercial would have to cost $50 million." As it is, the cost of a one-minute commercial rehearsals, filming, reshooting, dubbing, scoring, animation, printing runs to an average of $22,000 or about five times more than a minute of TV entertainment...
...true innovators in film it is they who pack a succinct story into a few seconds and in the process produce many new cinematic ideas. The work of such directors as Michael Cimino for Kodak, Howard Zieff for Benson & Hedges and Mike Elliott for Rheingold, has precipitated an interplay of ideas that flows freely between Madison Avenue and the conventional movie set.

As the viewer gazes at it, his reflection becomes a part of the picture, suggesting that all art is based on the interplay between reality and the memory of how artists in ages past have dealt with the problem...

Whatever emotions Cunningham's audiences feel are entirely in dividual. The same movement or interplay of bodies might engender fear in one person and laughter in another-and that is the way it is meant...
...students to latch on to a certain philosophy and use it as their panacea. Too often this philosophy becomes dogma, blinds its proponents to other viewpoints, and leads them to the all or nothing stage. It is then that the intellectual process breaks down, and a meaningful and productive interplay of ideas, which is so desperately needed now, ceases. I can only hope that both students and administrators will never be afraid to open themselves continually to self-doubt and self-questioning-to break the gel that means stagnation and, ultimately, failure...
