6. A minimalistic style of music developed through experimentation by musician LaMonte Young (solo artist and member of the band The Dream Syndicate) in the 1960s. In the decades that followed, it was hybridized with styles as diverse as ambient music (through a partnership between Brian Eno and Robert Fripp and the duo Stars of the Lid), rock (especially in the shoegazing genre of the early 1990s and on the album Metal Machine Music, released in 1975 by Lou Reed), electronic music (Kraftwerk's first album and several tracks by Aphex Twin and Coil) and even metal (e.g., Sunn O and Boris).

28. Although only some of the films analyzed in this study share this haptic visuality (which I believe is strictly restricted to the examples cited in this paragraph), I have opted to discuss hapticity within the set of characteristics that I associate with flow aesthetics to allow for some interesting digressions into the sensory immersion promoted by this genre of contemporary cinema.
