Hi Kim,

I don¹t recall her being mentioned, but Stephanie Barber¹s films and videos
frequently make significant use of on-screen and spoken text in cryptic,
poetic, unsettling, obtuse, and many other ways. Plus, they are great.

Also, Marcel Broodthaers¹ ³Le Corbeau et le Renard² (1967), viewable in a
not-horrible version (but not great, either) on ubu.com.
