«Cinema and video art –the border. The Utopia of slow video».
Reality captured on cinefilm is fractured, while reality captured on video
lingers. Unlike the motion-picture camera, the camera-recorder records image and
sound simultaneously. If the cinefilm achieves the distancing effect, the major
achievement of video is an ability to create a copy of reality. Cinema being a
human mind’s discontinuity incarnate, invented after the “Death of God”, it is
video that returns to human kind the holistic world view. A human being with a
discontinuous consciousness, brought up within the cinema culture, looks into a
syncretic thinking camera-recorder. What will come of it?
(Milena Musina).
