Technology and the Making of Experimental Film Culture - John (Assistant Professor of Film and Media Studies Powers - Bog

Technology and the Making of Experimental Film Culture examines how the avant-garde embraced small-gauge media technologies such as the Bolex camera, 16mm reversal film stocks, commercial film laboratories, and low-budget optical printers, investing them with meaning and value. This book uses technology as a lens for examining the process of making: where ideas come from, how they are put into practice, and how arguments about those ideas foster cultural and
artistic commitments and communities.
