[Frameworks] Painting directly to film

[Myron Ort]

The 35mm Sistiaga film was shown several years ago in San Francisco unfortunately with a very loud and overbearing soundtrack of live “music” (inescapable electronic noise and thumbing bass as I recall). I really don’t know why they do that.

There seems to be a couple of  digital relics on Youtube and one which requires a subscription of some kind to watch which I have not.

The film is definitely an example of extended painting on film with its feature length of 1 hr. and 15 min.

I remember seeing in at the cinema projected in its original 35 mm cinemascope, and I remember seeing things like shoes, or objects whatever. Some years later I got to know what direct cinema filmmaking meant and I felt lucky to have seen that film on film.

On my one viewing, I was in many ways disappointed, but that could change on later viewings, and in any case it is unique, not really like anything I have seen, and anyone interested in abstract filmmaking should see it. It is also, gloriously in my view, silent.
