1/57: Experiment with Synthetic Sound (Test) (1957)
• March 1st, 1957 • 0h 1min
Documentary
Overview
Mostly dark, rejecting images which are repeated. A stone wall, the chamber of a revolver which is, at first not recognizable, a close-up of a cactus. The duration of the takes emphasises the photographic character of the pictures, simultaneously with a crackling, brutal sound. (Hans Scheugl)
