Throbs - Fred Worden (USA, 1972, 16mm, 7:00 min)
Found footage of circuses, fairgrounds and car crashes
is repeated, distorted and layered, brought to the point of destruction and
then back again, recoalescing to a hypnotic, looping and crescendoing
soundtrack. Frequently employing an optical printer for his projects, Worden’s
investigations involve subtle explorations of light, texture, colour, exposure,
detail, and the other physical qualities of celluloid, emulsion, and the light
that must pass through it. In Throbs unusually
beautiful clashes of colour and shape occur a result of Worden’s creative
manipulation of time and use of superimpositions.
