recut

The meadow was being recut, the great red poppies were reopening in the garden.

Nothing seemed to work without my messing with shims, recuts, etc.

In these works Farocki recovers, recuts, and reframes archival images, largely drawn from institutional records, industrial films, instruction videos, surveillance tapes, and home movies, of such subjects as labor practices, production models, training methods, weapons tests, control spaces, and "everyday life" (as it is still, somewhat optimistically, called).
