[Frameworks] sprockets

[Pip Chodorov]

Hans Richter used the white square in Rythmus 21  (1921-1924).

And Len Lye used sprocket actual holes in Trade Tattoo  (1936). At 
the end of Trade Tattoo a white envelope recedes into the distance 
just like in Rhythmus 21 making reference both to Richter's film and 
to the sprocket holes.
