To a mention of "Secondary Currents' I'd also add "SpiritMatters", made by writing the script directly on celluloid and then refilming the strips and using them as subtitles. It can be seen at http://www.ubu.com/film/rose_spirit.html
Peter Rose -----Original Message----- From: Beebe, Roger <roge...@ufl.edu> To: Experimental Film Discussion List <frameworks@jonasmekasfilms.com> Sent: Fri, Nov 15, 2013 1:03 pm Subject: Re: [Frameworks] films/videos using/made up of text In the same vein as Gently Down the Stream, you might take a look at Lauren Cook's Altitude Zero. I do think Lauren's film (like Gently and many of the others listed) rely on IMAGES just as much as text. It seems the list narrows considerably if you're thinking about films that are only textual (like Peter Rose's Secondary Currents), but even those films are not really "just" text, since they rely on a choice of typeface, a specific decision about where to place the text in the frame, etc. Some of David Gatten's text-heavy films, for example, seem to me equally to be about typography and about the texture of the pages as much as they're about the words themselves. ...
