Book Presentation:
The history of experimental cinema is run through with practices and ideas which interrogate, contest or inflect the uses of film technology ordained by the film industry. In experimental film a large portion of technical inventiveness is devoted to conceiving technical get-ups which will enable filmmakers to invent original forms. This idea of “bricolage” will be a touchstone in this digital book, which will see technical thinking as a way to open up a field of possibilities, and which will also show how the demands of efficiency which underpin cinematic engineering can be found even in its “margins,” with sometimes spectacular results.
