| The ideas expressed here have no wish to be well balanced, or even sane. They are a call to reinvest moving images with the marvelous , not through other worldly flights of imagery but through seeing the very production of the moving image in a new light. They are a cry for a multiplicity of "cinemas", past, present and future. Like philosophical toys themselves, these texts and images are designed to be playful and provoke thought. Inspired in part by the education rebus books of the 19th century described by Walter Benjamin, in which wherever possible, nouns are represented by small illustrative pictures or icons. He notes that the word rebus can be traced back not to res (thing) but to rêver (to dream). Here conceptual constellations, will project you on a journey crisscrossing a host of parallel cinemas. |
