A little late to the party... ...However, a couple of my works may be interesting to the Caryn and the list.
Both of these are video works, but they are single-channel and designed for cinema presentation, so they'd fit with a film screening scenario. *Scalene*, 2008 This work uses a text of Aristotle's excerpted from his (fragmentarily extant) "Protrepticus". The work stars Michael Snow, who reads the Aristotle text in the original Greek. http://manimazinani.net/scalene/ *Screen Scene*, 2011 The piece incorporates two separate Plato excerpts dealing with a theory of vision. The actual text is appears in the context of the work. http://manimazinani.net/screen-scene/ Thanks and if you follow the links and view the work, your thoughts are welcome! m...@manimazinani.net. Best, Mani PS> Speaking of Michael Snow, his *So Is This* (1982) quotes Plato's *Phaedrus*. On Sun, Jun 26, 2016 at 11:23 PM, Caryn Cline <carynycl...@gmail.com> wrote: > I agree, Owen.
