- Plakatmaler

- They gave me another chance; I filmed the people who paint cinema posters painting, and the results were meant to provide inserts for a magazine program entitled Kino 75. They didn't, but throughout the history of television, the fact that something wasn't broadcast has never meant that nothing was broadcast. (Harun Farocki)

1974
- Die Arbeit mit Bildern
- Eine Telekritik von Harun Farocki
-
- What do the images in television information broadcasting, in feature programs and documentaries actually convey? Do they tell us anything important about their subjects? Do they make anything more obvious? Are they at all relevant to the topic? Or do they merely serve as background for the text. What does the outside of things have to say about unseen connections?Harun Farocki uses examples to demonstrate the lack of curiosity television often exhibits when using sounds and images, how little the viewer's curiosity is awakened as a result, and the extent to which television usage of camera and sound recording distances it from the real world.
