Dear Peter, Two of my films, *The Gas Thus Cuts in Bits* (2012-13) and *The Illuminating Gas* (2012) were made entirely as explorations of optical sound. Images are subsidiary to the soundtrack. I usually present them in a performance setting (The Gas Works <http://esperanzacollado.org/WORKS/thegasworks.html>) that includes pre-recorded voice, sewing machine, gas mask, feather duster, and altered loops apart from the projection of the two mentioned films. During the performance, cinema is literally derailed and subjected to stitching (not without a great dose of humour). I'd be happy to show you videos and documentation if interested. The two films were intended to break during projection (there's no copies and no negatives), but they are still in one piece. I also have digital scans of them.
Best, Esperanza Collado - - - - - - - - - - - - - - www.esperanzacollado.org
