Joyce’s Rat Life and Diet in North America

The rats move north to Canada and grow vegetables - no DDTs!

Another from Frampton, regrettably neither contemporary nor “by frameworkers here” (unless Hollis is here from the Bardo)
Works and Days, 1969, 12:00min.   see FMC

one of Joyce Wieland’s films (some frameworker surely knows which) contains the Beach Boy’s song Vegetable.

ps.  if you accept ethnographic films as “experimental” (and i don’t know why you would but the A-G category excludes some brilliant non-narrative non-feature films)
there are some wonderful films about agriculture by such filmmakers as John Marshall and Robert Gardner.
Gardner and Karl Muller’s Land Divers of Melanesia  concerns a yam harvest.
distributed by DER, which has an entire “Agriculture” section in their index of films.

Hi all,

I'm putting together an experimental film screening "In Praise of Vegetables", (to happen in Scotland, on 27th November).

I would really welcome some suggestions. Initially thinking of some works such as Suzan Pitt's Asparagus (1978), Barbara Hammer's Women I Love (1976), Hollis Frampton's Carrots & Peas (1969) - I could certainly use some more contemporary recommendations, and anything made by frameworkers here.

Many thanks,

Richard
