The Greek word for "insect" is entomon literally meaning "to cut up or divide into segments," and is the source of the word entomology. The Greeks had used the term for insects because of the clear division of insect bodies into three segments, now called the head, thorax, and abdomen. In pre-digital filmmaking the edit process literally cut the film in order to splice two disparate sections back together and run them through the film projector to form a linear edit. The “Montage” edit juxtaposes two separate images in order that the viewer might make connections between them to form new meaning. By the use of “cut up” we find a new whole.

First visit after browsing the catalogue

First visit to the Special Collections is after looking at the catalogue lent to me during the strike. Want to see the Memorial books. They are odd as they are Harry Page’s own creations. A collection of Victorian Funeral memorabilia or as the catalogue describes
