A frame-by-frame collage of everything imaginable. First shown in a New York production of K. Stockhausen’s Originale Track from these performances. “Breer…contemplates and manipulates ‘still’ images from his past in what is apparently a moving family album. Black-and-white photographs of his wife as a girl, of himself at his work table… are scrambled together with fragments of cartoons, a handwritten letter passing too fast to be legible, fingers, a bare foot, a mouse in a cartoon trying to turn on a lamp, and a real mouse falling through space – to isolate a few of the more striking images.” – P. Adams Sitney, Visionary Film
