Dear Frameworks, Re. films about or evocative of physics or astronomy. Jim Davis¹s films are suggestive of cosmic genesis, plasma energy, or ³liquid² light, with waves of color. Especially Color Dances (1952), Becoming (1955), Energies (1957), Impulses (1959). For more on Davis and his often abstract cinema see my forthcoming book ³Dancing With Light² (Anthology Film Archives, 2012). -R. Haller
