Palindrome

Hollis Frampton... Palindrome (1969, 16mm, color, silent, 22 min) at UbuWeb Film & Video. "...While working at a photo lab, Frampton found that the waste at both ends of the rolls of processed film - where chemicals worked on the emulsion through clips used to attach the film to the machine - produced images far too interesting to be discarded. For Palindrome, Frampton selected images which he described as 'tending towards the biomorphic,' resembling abstract surrealist painting."
