Insect Artisans (1923, silent)

The Insect Artisans are the Ailanthus Silk Moth and the Red Admiral. The pictures show how these creatures spin silk and weave a cocoon, and the way in which the change from caterpillar to moth is effected. We digitized and uploaded this film from the Orgone Archive.
