Viet-Flakes

Carolee Schneemann

1967, 08:33 minutes, colour, n/a sound

TAPECODE 120.01

Viet-Flakes was composed from an obsessive collection of Vietnam atrocity images, compiled over five years from foreign magazines and newspapers. Schneemann used an 8mm camera and a unique lens system to “travel” within the photographs, producing a volatile animation. Broken rhythms and visual fractures are heightened in a sound collage by James Tenney, which features Vietnamese religious chants and secular songs, fragments of Bach and 1960s pop hits.
