Scope and Contents
This performance video is the reading of nine poems from Emmett Williams' "An Anthology of Concrete Poetry." Using a musical background, and interpretive photography, the emphasis is on the visual aspect of the words and not on the linguistic. The film was donated to the Anthology Film Archives and transferred to DVD in 2006. According to 2006 media standards, the film should be considered quaint, historic and dated. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
