Abbott Meader
Racetrack
(16mm, 1970-72, 5:30 minutes)
Where does a racetrack start or finish unless we establish such places? And some simply go
around and around forever.
A small child. A red white and blue tricycle. It is difficult to write a brief comment
about this film. It was made in 1970 as a silent piece - late in the Vietnam war era.
Later I built a sound track and that form fulfilled my intent and was printed in 1972.
One print exists, which you see digitally tranferred here. The verticle scratch that it
received back in the day somehow seems a perfect addition.
