Cinema & New Media
Thematic film program curated for Cinemateket, the Danish Filminstitute, 2000. A guest appearance by Lev Manovich was organized in collaboration with Artnode foundation and The Danish FilmWorkshop.
SUMMARY:
The program features a selection of experimental film- and videos that illuminate the transition from old to new media
from a cinematic perspective - a transition not only defined by recent technological innovation but also characterized
by artistic expressions and ways of employing the moving image across genres.
With the computer as both tool and medium the cinematic core - the moving image -
has recently been liberated from its narrative, distributive and productive tradition and returned
to its mysterious pre-cinematic origin.
