Hi,
Institutional Qualityby George Landow was created from a found soundtrack, in
this case a tape recorder about an instructional test.
Does anyone know other examples that uses found soundtracks for experimental
films, especially from the sixties and seventies?
Thanks,

I've been thinking about films that express an impatience with achievement. An
initial form of this would be the kind of filmmaker who spoofs the documentary
form. But let's put experimentation in the hot seat. If we disallow those
cases in which it really is just an artist suffering from res

Brakhage would include frames of black leader in between shots to

There are a number of filmmakers who have made the splice, and the quality
of the cut, extremely important - Peter Gidal is (arguably) the most
important of these. If you think about it, it is an attribute of shaping
time which can be used - you may want to.

Which Frampton film uses some kind of a Chinese lectionary for soundtrack?
Probably from the seventies. I believe it was double system, sound was on
reel-to-reel tape. That was a found soundtrack.

I think what Albert's asking for are films that utilize a more or less intact
found soundtrack, rather than a collaged soundtrack that includes found sound
segments.
Lipsett, Pat O'Neill, and plenty of other artists have made some exciting use
of collaged found elements, but I'd also love to he

Yes Mark, you are right, I was asking for films that use intact found
soundtracks to produce the entire film, instead of using collaged soundtracks
from different found sources.
They could be labeled as "Perfect found soundtracks", just as those Perfect
Films by Ken Jacobs or Hollis Frampton.
...to which Tom Whiteside refers is *Ordinary Matter (Hapax Legomena V)*.
The soundtrack indeed consists of a booming male voice reciting a Chinese
language syllabary and is also double-system sound (i.e. sound on "tape;"
film is projected at 16/18fps btw). I believe that this soundtrack was

It's a pretty obvious example, but (nostalgia) is [among other things] an

Thanks for the info, Steve. Interesting that it was made rather than found. To
be truly found, must it have previously been lost? (and this is a digression,
as I fully understand the request made in the original post.) My memory of
"Ordinary Matter" is that the soundtrack "plays" like a found s
H people!
So, ok, I have a question.
I want to make prints of a few choice Super 8 film frames, and I don't know how
the heck to go about it. I'd like the prints to vary - some about 12 inches
across, others 24 inches across, some maybe even bigger.
I'm guessing… It's probably a case
I've done this with Super 8 reversal film by cutting out the frames I wanted to
print (a strip of six inches or so) and scanning the strip in my Minolta Dimage

you suggest, you'd need to have access to telecine equipm

Tom Whiteside's description of his own *Home Safe Badminton* actually
reminds me of a very "early" Luis Recoder piece, the title of which I do
not recall, which paired an un-edited and untreated sound-off "found film"

Yes, that's a good one too. I was going to mention it but couldn't remember the
title.
