Description
Continuous Sound and Image Moments is a hand-drawn black-and-white animated film loop with no beginning or end. Conceived as a cinematic expansion of pictorial means, the process of making thousands of drawings (rather than any individual picture) is the subject of the aesthetic experience. Each image is shown for only a few frames, constituting momentary retinal impressions that assimilate in time into an insubstantial yet coherent multiformity. The film was later used in many events/performances and situations/installations such as Emergences of Continuous Forms (1966), This is No Thing - This is a Situation of Opportunity (1967), Glove Screen (1967), Corpocinema (1967) and MovieMovie (1967).
