But her Hand Eye Coordination certainly counts, even if Removed doesn’t…

Hey Patrick (and Tess)..

I thought that Naomi Uman's REMOVED was a scratched film for many years too. 
But, she told me a few years ago that she applied (clear?) nail polish to the 
parts of the images she wanted to keep -- frame by frame - for many months. 
Then, she gave the film a bleach bath...  I guess that's why there are faint 
images of bodies left on the bleached out portions of the film and cracks and 
crevices on the other parts of the image.

hope that helps,
Warren

Animated scratching: Broken Down Film (Osamu Tezuka, 1985)

Naomi Uman’s Removed (1999)

Isidore Isou’s Venom and Eternity (1951)

But, these and the other suggestions so far, um, only scratch the surface.

Tess, hi -



I had a colleague in the Film Department, recently transplanted to Ann Arbor, 
who wouldn’t let a frame of her film go through the gate unless she had 
scratched on it.



I overstate but Naz Dincel’s practice relentlessly involves scratching on her 
film -- or, that is to say, involves relentless scratching. Her film “Her 
Silent Seaming” -- to cite an example -- was a Jury Award winner at FLEX this 
year and also screened at Images, among other places.



(I think she has her ear to the ground so she may respond to you off-list? Naz, 
contact Tess.)



Also there is that propositional film that Frampton talked about in “A 
Lecture,” its constantly inscribed scratch transplanting what the film is about 
from “Lana Turner” to that very scratch, if I recall correctly.



What’s with Roger Beebe’s premature fatigue? Man!



Carl

Subject: [Frameworks] Titles of scratch films

I'm doing something on films that employ scratching directly on celluloid like 
Brakhage's Chinese Series, David Gatten's Fragrant Portals..., Dona Cameron's 
World Trade Alphabet, Barbel Neubauer's work, Pierre Hebert's work, Storm 
DeHirsch's Peyote Queen, and Len Lye's Free Radicals.

What am I missing? Old and New?

Bonus points it it's set to African drums...
