Howard believes that Barbara, who is also a marine, now has the part, so Howard and his henchmen set out to kill Barbara and Johnny and get the part, but Howard is underestimating what Barbara is willing to do to protect Johnny.

With the aid of usb microscopes and X-ray scanners, this is the first of many test films, peering into the surface structure of decayed and rotted 35 mm celluloid film. Thank you Brian Eno for the music.

"Created as a silent, large-scale installation for public spaces, National Tapestry draws our focus to the weft and the warp of the woven image. The materiality of a distressed patriotic symbol echoes the struggles and ambitions of a culture, land and history that are both loved and despised by many. This is Steven Woloshen’s first film exploring ethnology and politics in film."

In Barthes' essay, "The Grain of the Voice", the concept of the "genosong" was evoked to separate the sound of the voice from its language. Visual Music for Ten Voices distinguishes the physicality of the optical vocal track as having a unique identity from its actual resonance in sound films. Designed as a 10-foot black box projection loop, this film focuses on the rhythm and materiality of ten 35mm optical soundtracks. Each musical passage maintains its original length and linear harmony with the other tracks, collectively creating a new sense of motion and repetition.
