Many of the suggestions so far except mine are for pretty well-known
films. There is a lesser known city film by a well-known filmmaker, Stan
Brakhage, titled /City Streaming/, that is quite great. I don't believe
it is available digitally, however. There is of course Frampton's
(fairly long) /Zorns Lemma/.

Hello,
In 2010, the Centre Pompidou in Paris released a DVD called "*La Ville
Moderne : Films issus de la collection du Centre Pompidou*" with a
bilingual booklet French/English and 7 short movies. Here are these
movies. Many are available on Youtube or elsewhere on the internet.
Otherwise, here is the Worldcat link:

I can't help but think of Man With a Movie Camera and of course
Daybreak Express, though.
