Synopsis:

In the mid-1960s, Paul Sharits developed an abstract cinema in radical opposition to the pictorial tradition. His works taken together propose a reflection on the very nature of cinema and its component parts: the film strip, single frames, the flow of film through the projector, sprocket holes, screen, projectionS Using mainly the flicker technique (flickering between pictures and colors), he highlights frame by frame discontin-uity, thus revealing the hidden powers of editing. Includes a booklet by Vincent Deville with writings by Paul Sharits. 3 films by Paul Sharits: T,O,U,C,H,I,N,G: A subversive experimental short film in which the word 'Destroy' is uttered constantly while images on an individual are show with changes colors and the letters T,O,U,C,H,I,N,G displayed. N:O:T:H:I:N:G: An experimental short film primarily consisting of flickering color screens with the occasional image of a light bulb or chair displayed.
