Between 1964 and 1966, Andy Warhol filmed a series of silent, black and white 16mm short films called “Screen Tests” that featured his hip friends like Lou Reed and Yoko Ono sitting around and doing very little for seven-minute uninterrupted takes.

Check out some clips from the original tests for Dennis Hopper, Salvador Dali (in all of his upside-down glory) and Nico for inspiration after the jump, then go wild! And by “go wild” I mean just sit there.
