The Karin Hodgin Jones independent film collection (2001-2003) consists of art related films and video installations created by Jones while a student of sculpture at the University of Utah. Jones' films are analytical experiments with frameless animation and Technicolor film processing. This collection is part of the Utah Independent Film Archive (UIFA).
The materials are arranged chonologically.
Audio-visual materials can be fragile and require specialized equipment to play back. For this reason, access to audio-visual materials is provided through digital copies, and it might take longer to provide access to items that are not yet digitized. Access to parts of this collection may be restricted under provisions of state or federal law, condition of the material, or by donor.
