Complete Record: A poetic portrait of sculptor and artist Merrill Bickford, or Stuart Harwood as he was known as for the latter portion of his life. Bickford recounts parts of his formal education in bronze casting, only to extend the traditional methods into a more crude and experimental form of casting. Pour represents one of composer Martin Bresnick's earliest film scores using computer music.
