    Really? Archival collections listings are so incorrect, ouch. Fischinger’s papers, films and animation drawings are at Center for Visual Music, Los Angeles, which also has a huge film and artwork/painting collection, and currently restores, promotes and distributes the films, http://www.centerforvisualmusic.org

    Anthology Film Archives has NO archival Fischinger collection, nor does Frick. The entry of 1,000 films for Anthology is incredibly misleading, these are not Fischinger films.

    NYU’s 17 linear feet of the Canemaker collection includes a very small amount of Fischinger clippings and Fischinger-related correspondence.

    The David James interview with Pat O’Neill does not belong on this list, it’s not substantial re Fischinger. There are so many other texts, please link to the CVM Bibliography,
    http://www.centerforvisualmusic.org/Fischinger.

    Currently CVM has several Fischinger exhibitions at major museums as well. How could you not find or include CVM in all the links and references above, we’re a bit amazed at the exclusion.
