Did my question about structuralism on the Snow thread somehow invoke this one? I may know some people who have Frampton films on tape. I'll ask, but isn't Framption-on-tape something like heresy?

well, i don't think i can afford 16mm prints. i have only seen two frampton films and one of them was "less" which is only 1 second long (though repeated) so i'm not super familiar with his work - and i just want to see more.

the holy grail of experimental film that i want on video is robert nelson's "bleu shut" - i saw this film in class and would love to watch it over and over. but i don't know where to find it.

and yeah, the michael snow thread did trigger the frampton thoughs, because the other frampton film i saw had michael snow doing narration about photographs as they burned slowly on an electric stove, except the photograph you saw burning related to the narration for the previous one.

That one's called (nostalgia) and it's such a beautiful and sad idea, and so well executed.

Hi. I'm looking for the audio of the last part of Nostalgia. I need it desperately for a project of mine. If someone knows how to get it, let me know. Please!!!!
