Amongst others, [[Andy Warhol]] began creating films and videos,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.warholstars.org/andy_warhol_films.html|title=Andy Warhol Films|website=www.warholstars.org}}</ref> and mid decade he sponsored [[The Velvet Underground]] and staged events and performative actions in New York, such as the [[Exploding Plastic Inevitable]] (1966), that included live rock music, explosive lights and films.<ref name="Aspen">{{Cite web|title=From the research laboratories of Andy Warhol comes this issue of Aspen Magazine|date=April 1967|url=http://www.ubu.com/aspen/advertisements/aspen3Ad.html|publisher=Evergreen Review|volume=11|number=46}}</ref><ref name="BWJ">{{Cite journal|author-link=Branden W.
