Abstract, direct animation consisting of triangular shapes that flow past the frame. Apparently the source for "Filmabuse" (F.2011-01-0262) and "Filmabuse Loop" (F.2011-01-0263), this original painted material is presented in an edge-to-edge scan to replicate the look of the unslit double 8mm object. Although no date information is available, it was likely produced circa 1975 ahead of the other "Filmabuse" elements.
