Sixteen experimental short films created 1965-2017 that provide a vivid account of creative processes used in the recycling of images in experimental moving image art.

​Found Footage filmmakers hold a significant place within the canon of the experimental and avant-garde filmmaking oeuvre. Creative film artists have employed previously filmed footage obtained from various sources, and originating from other film genres – including home movies, newsreels, educational films, scientific studies, industrial films, and fiction films – to fashion their own distinctive visions of cinematographic texture and textual meaning. These range from explorations of the materiality of the celluloid film stock, studies of time and motion, power and gender representation, construction of geographical travel diaries, deconstruction of political messaging, and emotional states of being.
