Summer Notes (Remix) is a program Joe Frank aired as part of the series Work In Progress. It is a slightly shorter version of Summer Notes, which aired in 1979.
A segment from this program was turned into an animated short film.
Synopsis
- Interview with an armed guy (Arthur Miller) on the beach.
- Scenes in which a sugary couple encounters disaster, interspersed by a panel discussion.
- A sailing trip that ends lost in the fog.
- The history of picnics and picnic etiquette. A hike that ends in berry picking and poisoning.
- A man in the street tries to get attention - offers little girl sandwiches and sings "you are my sunshine."
- Outdoor theater, performing scenes according to the time of day.
- The street performer fights with passers-by, threatens them, then apologizes.
- The history of theater.
- The couple builds a fire and catches the forest.
- Joe interviews people about resort communities - Woodstock, a nature resort in the Cook islands, and some sort of retirement community.
- The couple argues, watches multiple televisions.
- Animated monologue describing scenes of summer: a man on the subway shouts, "I'm not dead"; an idyllic neighboring family man goes mad; Houdini's act as the ultimate form of protest; a blind man carries a cripple on his back; shooting people at the beach as art; Joe repeats lines from the street performer and the acted dialog; "the sun shines from one place in the sky."
- Beach technology: radios, beach scanners, seismographs.
