Hi Folks!

Just found three new Brakhage shorts on eMule. They seem to be the first three of this "Prelude"-series from 1996. Again only one full source, so let's help each other.

PRELUDES 1-6 is comprised of six hand-painted and double-frame printed sections of 16mm film:

1) Turquoise and maroon-toned thin lines of paint are inter-spersed with variously toned circular "water-marks" of blotched paint giving-way to multi-colored brush strokes and finally fulsomely darkened and thickened brush-strokes which then thin to something akin to the beginning.

2) Interplay of toned rectangular shapes, vertical and horizontal and diagonal lines in juxtaposition with hardened darker shapes which gradually shift tone and lighten until ending on thin blues.

3) Many white interruptive frames and absolutely straight-edged multi-colored lines amidst "clouds" of color, finally thickened into blobs with lengthy white (clear leader) spacing between them.
