Rhizome (2008)
Directed by Dana Plays
Overview
A continuation of Dana Plays’ SALVAGE PARADIGM series compounding detritus of history and memory derived from found-footage salvaged from 1,600 educational films, thrown into a dumpster by Syracuse University after its downsizing effort closed the S.U. Educational Film Library. Plays optically re-photographs archival footage segments that she extracts with a focus on war documentation, science experiments, motion picture and optical inventions and other subjects throughout the history of the twentieth century.
Length 5 minutes
