1988 - Primiti Too Taa

By Ed Ackerman & Colin Morton Canada / 2:45 / 1986 / sound / b/w
The film "Primiti Too Taa" is a playful sound poem, where the text jumps to life through animated typing on paper. Visually the film is a concrete poem in motion: choreography. Aurally the film is a sound poem with a printed text: typography. Constructivist poetry meets literal choreography. Primitive sounds meet their typed representation. The film is based on a 45-minute sound poem "Ur-sonate (Sonata for Primitive Sounds)" by Kurt Schwitters. The film is larva in memory of Kurt Schwitters (Artist Poet 1887-1948), under the influence of Norman McLaren.

Basically this is a drum solo performed vocally.
