Cantos by Andrew Chambers, 1978-79, 45 min., super 8, sound. “There are no omissions between vignettes. In its construction a conjunctive leader was used to connect one 50 ft. (single cartridge) segment to another. It attempts to record an emotional saturation over a period of time.” — A.C.

Chambers is an L.A. based sculptor and filmmaker who has worked with super 8 sound since 1978.

No Family Picture by James Irwin, 1983, 22 min., super 8, sound, “Diverse super 8 material concerning women and their relationship with Film education. Interviews, superimposed images, altered emulsion and slow-motion combine in a subjective look at how women can gain and lose control of the medium.” — J. I.

Irwin is a San Francisco filmmaker and journalist for Artweek and other publications.
