Cuban dance focuses on traditional Cuban rumba (particular versions of professional, traditional, and general public rumba as well as two National Cuban Ballet Companies, the National Cuban Modern Dance Company (Danza Nacional), and three National Folkloric Companies (Conjunto Folklorico, Folklorico de Oriente, and Cutumba). Haitian heritage in Cuba and influences in the Caribbean are also documented in Tumba Francesa from the eighteenth century and Gaga from the twentieth century. Afro-Caribbean religious materials are highlighted first in dance traditions but also in ritual behavior: Yoruba, Palo, Abakua, Arara, and Vodun in Cuba; Rada and Congo rites in Haitian Vodun (including installation of mambos and an annual celebration at Sucrie de Nasch); and Bahian versions of Candomblé. There are a few segments of contemporary popular dance including comparsas and carnival examples.

Footage shot over 15 years by Timreck.  A large percentage, if not all, covers work by SI archeologist Bill Fitzhugh.  RED PAINT PEOPLE was cut from this footage.  Timreck (and Fitzhugh) are continuing to shoot material that is a continuation of this project.  This material of interviews, sites, Labrador, etc. is known as the Northeast Archeology Project.

Outtakes of a film project exploring comparative maritime adaptations especially between Scandanavia and northeastern North America and aspects of the circumpolar culture theory in northern anthropology with focus on the Smithsonian's maritime Archaic archeology project conducted 1970-1980. Footage includes interviews with Graham Clark, William Fitzhugh, Erika Hellskog, Alice Kehoe, Eric Brink Petersen, Paul Simonsen, James Tuck, and Steve Williams. Locations filmed include the coast of Maine; Denmark; Norway; Varanger Fjord, Norway; and Labrador, Newfoundland, Canada. Also included are: artifacts in the Tromso Museum; standing stones, petroglyphs, and cairns at Bohustlan, Sweden; Bronze age village site on St. Mary, Scilly Isles, England; merry maiden stone circle in Cornwall, England; Carnac, France; Port au Choix artifacts in Newfoundland Museum; artifacts in Port au Choix Museum; and excavations at Nulliak Cove, Labrador. Edited film, RED PAINT PEOPLE, was produced from this footage.

content: Footage documenting archaeological sites representing Anasazi occupation in the American Southwest. Included is film of the excavation of settlement sites by Earl H. Morris in Hidden Valley, near Durango, Colorado. Film of the site is very brief, however, evidence has revealed occupation dates from the AD 700s. Basket Maker III occupation of the site was characterized by isolated pit houses and surface granaries, the excavation of one such unit being visible in the film. The footage also captures archaeological sites, however not excavations, at the Canyon del Muerto, in Southeast Arizona. Documented are dozens of petroglyphs representing animal forms as well as geometric designs. In addition, the Mummy Cave Tower is also visible in the film, notable because of E. Morris' discovery of prayer sticks embedded in the adobe walls of the structure. Interpretation has suggested initial occupation from Basket Maker II and III on through Pueblo III.
