[Frameworks] films/videos using/made up of text

[Stephen Broomer]

Joyce Wieland uses text prominently in several of her films: 1933, Reason Over Passion, Sailboat, Solidarity, Pierre Vallieres. Mike Rice mentioned Hollis Frampton -- Frampton collaborated on the alphabetical permutations of text of Wieland's Reason Over Passion.
There's a short chapter on text and film in Bruce Elder's book on Canadian experimental film, Image and Identity (1989), "The Relation of Text and Image: Postmodernist Strategies," 293-295. There he also mentions Patricia Gruben's The Central Character, and his own films 1857: Fool's Gold, Illuminated Texts, and Lamentations.
