For an elegiac film, may I recommend to your notice my film, A Knowledge They 
Cannot Lose? It's on vimeo.

The Future is Bright (2011) by Jodie Mack   .. It was played at Scott Nygren's  
funeral service (on video) at the University of Florida in 2014 ... Scott was 
Jodie's (and my) former professor.  I didn't know that it was shown at the 
service until I screened it in Gainesville the following year for the New 
England Home Movie Tour.. alongside a few of Rob's filmsAfterwards, 
Scott's's wife, Maureen Turim (also our former professor),  approached me with 
tears in her eyes. She said the print overwhelmed her -- it was her first time 
experiencing the physical film.  We ended the program with that film just by 
chance that night... It certainly changed how I experienced and programed the 
film for the rest of the tour... Gainesville was stop 1.. 16 other stops 
followed.. We showed Rob's Undergrowth and Trembling Palace that night with 
films by me, Colin Brant, Luther Price, Jo Dery, Rob, Jodie, and  Jonathan 
Schwartz... been thinking about that tour a lot these last 2 weeks...

Hi Framers,

I second/third Phil Solomon's Still Raining, Still Dreaming and Mary Helena
Clarke's The Dragon is the Frame.

I add Eric Stewart's Wake, Margaret Rorison's The Waiting Sands, and David
Gatten's So Sure of Nowhere Buying Times to Come.

I'm also surprised no one has brought up any of the films from the 'A Roll
for Peter' Peter Hutton memorial screening yet. I wasn't able to attend
one, but my understanding was that quite a few folks made films for him (I
only saw one made by Anna Kipervaser, called Fair Winds and Following Seas,
but I know there were also films by at least a dozen others - full list
here: https://erictheise.com/films/a-roll-for-peter/). Perhaps someone
might want to organize a similar call for Rob.

I'd also be curious to see what the final elegy program is for Rob, as I
can't make it out to Boston for his memorial.  We've lost a true friend and
talent.

My 10-minute digital film, Threnody,  is a consideration of mortality in which 
I examined the residue and physical artifacts of death and memorialized the 
loss of friends ( including Hollis Frampton and James Broughton)  and victims 
of 9/11/01.
It is available from Canyon Cinema in San Francisco and LUX in London and is 
streaming here:

I feel like Bruce Conner's White Rose has so many of the right elements of an 
elegy.

Perhaps Necrology by Standish Lawder.  Does it work as elegy, for you to decide:

Necrology (Standish Lawder, 1970)


When we had a memorial screening for Brakhage, we included
Passage Through: A Ritual  (1990, 16mm, color/ sound, 50min)

And also Brakhage’s Panels for the Walls of Heaven is really lovely (2002, 
color, silent, 31 min.) Print courtesy of the Academy Film Archive.

And Kitch’s Last Meal, by Carolee Schneemann, (1976, 55 min.), perhaps.  Hard

elegies do you know?

The Poetry Foundation defines an elegy as: "In traditional English poetry, it 
is often a melancholy poem that laments its subject’s death but ends in 
consolation."

Perhaps Necrology by Standish Lawder.  Does it work as elegy, for you to
decide:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dadi7mw5gCs

When we had a memorial screening for Brakhage, we included
Passage Through: A Ritual  (1990, 16mm, color/ sound, 50min)
   
And also Brakhage¹s Panels for the Walls of Heaven is really lovely (2002,
color, silent, 31 min.) Print courtesy of the Academy Film Archive.

And Kitch¹s Last Meal, by Carolee Schneemann, (1976, 55 min.), perhaps.
Hard to know what will work as consolation.

Best regards,

Adam Hyman

[Frameworks] Seeking examples of film elegies

[Sarah Bliss]

Greetings Frameworkers,

I write from AgX in Boston, where we are making our way, in grief and with 
love, since the death of our beloved Rob Todd.  At AgX, we sometimes hold a 
salon for members. The theme of our next will be elegies.  What filmic examples 
of elegies do you know?

The Poetry Foundation defines an elegy as: "In traditional English poetry, it 
is often a melancholy poem that laments its subject’s death but ends in 
consolation."
