Asyl




I think Kurt Kren's Asyl has to be one of my favourite films ever, certainly one of my very favourite short films. When I was in Germany last month I came across a book about him, all in German, which meant my understanding of it was limited, but the diagrams he drew to plan out his structuralist films are amazing. Here's the planning he did for Asyl. Some are for timing, some for different areas of the 16mm frame to be exposed at different times during the year.

There are a few of his films on UBU but they're more the films he did with the Vienna Acionists/
