All editions of Movie Mural are comprised of six moving image programs, three timed 35mm slide programs and one digital slide program, and one overhead projection. Content loops simultaneously in a particular arrangement designated by the Archive. Content is based on VanDerBeek’s notes for his multimedia installations performed 1965-1968 and includes material representative of his varied approaches to film-making: collage films; computer films; newsreel and found film; dance and performance films; and multiple slideshows combining original and found still images. The fixed number of programs are comprised of material made 1957-1968.
