In 1977 Cindy Sherman made a series of black and white photographs called ‘Untitled Film Stills’. We all know the ones. In 1997 Cindy Sherman wrote and directed her

first feature film, Office Killer, starring eighties teen dream Molly Ringwald. You might not know the one because, among other things, it’s a bit of a stinker.

In 2003 we set out to mash these two strands of Cindy’s practice – her faked film stills and her real ones. This was ‘The Untitled Library Book Remix Project’.

1) Rent Office Killer from the video store. 2) Make black and white stills of the film by photographing the television set as the video is playing. 3) From these photos, select the images where Molly is alone / looks like Cindy / is channelling the ‘Untitled Film Still’ vibe.

4) Borrow books on Cindy Sherman from an art school library. 5) Insert your Office Killer film stills into the library books, pasting them over images of Cindy’s original ‘Untitled Film Stills’. Be careful to format the photos to the appropriate size, and colour-match the paper and the print with those of the book.

6) Return the remixed books to the library so some unsuspecting art school kid can describe your images in their obligatory end-of-semester Cindy Sherman essay.
