Just a small correction for the records:
I was the preservationist for these Engel projects (and numerous others for Engel's films):
Jules Engel's Train Landscape, 1974, 16mm, color, sound, 3 min.
Jules Engel's Silence, 1968, 16mm, color, silent, 3 min.
The Academy of MP Arts & Sciences was not involved in those preservation projects, as is credited below.
As an aside, William Moritz initiated the preservation of Shapes & Gestures, which was done by AMPAS.
best regards,
