The possibility of extraterrestrial visitors is one of science fiction's most enduring subjects. Within the Science New Wave, aliens take on additional meanings. They're the seeds that stow away in imported wool, mysterious audio signals, the otherworldly microscopic creatures that we share our living spaces with (by the untold billions), the scientists who contend with Earth's overbearing gravity to study us in turn. "The Aliens" reconfigures the trope through direct film experimentation, documentary, and dance.
