These 16mm screenshots are great finds! Makes me want to check if 16mm archives for schools still exist. I got a licence to borrow films for the classroom when I was teaching 15 years ago. I had to take a course taught by two senior citizens who were very strict about the rules. Sadly, I never used the licence because I didnt' teach for a long time. The Dawn of the Dimi DVD is excellent. "Electronics in the world of tomorrow" is included as an extra. Taanila (who made the documentary about Kurenniemi) also made other very good films between art and documentary. Do you know his film about the wonderful futuro house? http://www.arcspace.com/books/tomorrows_house/

Seems like a great DVD -- looks like it's no longer in print?
