Re: [Frameworks] Optical sound - Structural film
Synchromy by Norman McLaren is a great example. He photographed printed cards that went both on the sound space and the visual space of the film. And check out all the series of tests he made for similar experiments. You can find them in the DVD box set of his work. For more recent work: -Apollo by Tom Nishikawa is great. He shoots high-contrast pictures on 16mm by using a 35mm camera to cover the whole 16mm strip with images. He has some other pinhole films that work on a similar dynamic. -TB TX Dance by Roger Bebee is also a great piece that ironically synchs visual sound with image.

[Frameworks] Optical sound – Structural film
Hello, Does anybody know structural or structural-materialist or minimal/abstract films from the sixties or seventies where the sound of the film comes directly from the graphic treatment on the optical sound area of the celluloid? Kurt Kren drew a line with ink in his film Trees of Autumn (1960) and Guy Sherwin shot pictures on the variable area of the soundtrack. Those films were collected on the Optical Sound Films (1971-2007) DVD. I thought the soundtrack of Roh Film (1968) by Birgit Wilhelm Hein was done directly from the collage materials attached on the surface of the emulsion but it is not. It was done afterwards, as an autonomous noise piece by Christian Michelis. I'm thinking about films like Dynamo Dresden (1971) by Lis Rhodes or Soundtrack (1969) by Barry Spinello, but they are more abstract animation pieces following the visual music tradition than the structural or systemic patterns. Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thank you very much, Albert Alcoz-- http://visionaryfilm.net/ http://albertalcoz.com/ ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
