Cinema in Digital Media
-----------------------
This talk is about digital media - its technological base, its visual
language, and its aesthetics - through the history of cinema. I suggest
that a number of key principles, which we associate with digital media,
such as sampling, random access, and the database, were already present
in cinema from its first days. I also argue that digital media brings
back pro-cinematic techniques which characterized the moving image in
the nineteenth century and which were suppressed or eliminated by the
twentieth century institution of cinema.
