"Dance of Darkness," a doc on Butoh by Edin Velez, has some interesting segmentations of the screen to avoid the typical setup. Plus it's the best film about Butoh ever made.

  Don't remember whose talking head it is in one section of Caspar Stracke's CIRCLES SHORT CIRCUIT, but some of the time she is conventionally seated, facing the camera, and at other times her head floats and moves around (composited on another image) in a quite unconventional manner. She is talking about Alexander Graham Bell and the invention of the telephone. She makes the wry claim that "Mr. Watson come here. I need you!" was the first emergency call.

  I'm researching documentaries that feature/explore
  non-traditional/alternative interviews in terms of formal setups (not
  necessarily content, though obviously there's an inter-relationship there).

  Suggestions?

  Thanks, Ken
