Restricted: For research use. 508 Sound by Steve Reich. 520 A snippet of the Steve Reich sound collage begins over opening credits (unlike in the original 1963 version); then the film goes silent as R.G. Davis, founder of the San Francisco Mime Troupe, has absurd interactions with various geometric objects on a highly stylized constructivist set. At 242 ft. the film goes to black for about 100 ft., during which Steve Reich's sound collage, which cuts up a boxing announcer's exaltations, is heard. After the black, the images from the beginning of the film repeat in a truncated form with audio from an improvised mock interview with the director (Robert Nelson, playing the role of a filmmaker from India). This final section only lasts approximately 17 ft.--almost all of the interview from the original version has been omitted and the film ends abruptly. 655 7 Personal/independent works.|2mim 655 7 Shorts.|2mim 700 1 Nelson, Robert. 700 1 Wiley, William T. 700 1 Davis, Ron G. 700 1 Hudson, Robert H. 700 1 Reich, Steve. 710 2 Canyon Cinema. 740 02 Plastic haircut better off. 935 GLADN151847815 941 0 PFA 1604-01-12418.
