Color Sound Frames (1974)
Sharits produced Color Sound Frames by rephotographing strips of his previous films. He moved the strips, singly and in pairs, across a light table in front of the camera at various speeds. Sprocket holes of the original strips are visible at the edges of the frame, and the soundtrack of this film replicates the rat-a-tat of silent film sprocket holes played with the sound on. - CMOA
