Re: [Frameworks] Travelogues
There's the Brakhage film Unconscious London Strata -- perhaps a little more abstract than you're looking for? -- but also another little Brakhage film, not often screened, though one I've always liked (for whatever that's worth), is Other (3 minutes, 1980), described as: A film photographed in Amsterdam but dedicated to capturing a quality of mind engendered there -- not, certainly, alienation (as often in travel) but rather some heightened sense of being other.

Re: [Frameworks] Travelogues
Belaboring the obvious, I suppose, but I don't think anyone has mentioned 'Sans Soleil' yet, (or 'Letter From Siberia' though AFAIK it's not ion distribution). ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
Re: [Frameworks] Travelogues
Another film called Travelogue is the 1969 experimental documentary by Swedish filmmaker Claes Söderquist. He visited New York, California and the in between in 1968 were he met and interviewed among others Robert Nelson,Edward Keinholz and Howard Kanowitz. It's a highly personal record of a travel through a foreign country where the perception of art and reality are the main themes. Also, maybe some of James Bennings film could fit? /André 2011/11/10 Adam R.
