Mladen Stilinović Početnica 1, 2, 3, HR, 1973, 5', SD videoOriginal format: 16 mm
First reader 1, 2, 3 deals with language and the relationship between verbal, phonic and visual sign, and analyses the relationship between the rhythm of reading and the rhythm of seeing. The film is silent and organised in three parts. The first part, depciting scenes of different street signs filmed in 57 to 67 Vlaška street in Zagreb, begins with a title card saying: “The audience is kindly asked to read the text out loud”. The second part, Reader, portrays a poetic text by Mladen Stilinović, broken down by its transfer into the moving image media. The third part, Picture Book, showing a fable, begins with the instruction: “The audience is kindly asked to read both the text and the image out loud”.
