Presented in association with the Whitney Museum of American Art's exhibition "Beat Culture and the New America: 1950-65," this disc includes original master recordings by Charlie Parker, Thelonius Monk, Miles Davis, and John Coltrane; images by Jackson Pollock, Franz Kline, Wallace Berman, Bruce Conner, and over thirty other artists; excerpts from over twenty underground films by Kenneth Anger, Stan Brakhage, Maya Deren and others; as well as texts, photos, spoken word, and films by and about William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, and other key figures of the Beat generation. More than just an anthology, the CD-ROM brings the roots of contemporary art and culture to life through specially designed graphics by Sue Coe, Kevin Kerslake, Stephen Kroninger, Gary Panter, and Suzan Pitt, as well as provocative explorations into sexuality and intoxication integral to the Beat experience.

This is a hybrid Mac/PC CD image, compressed with Stuffit 5.5.
An odd thing about the application on this CD is that, although it was created in 1995, it was modified in 2006…and this is an image of original media!
