Hello, I'm looking for texts and works that draw connections (and erase them too, sure) between early cinema and the beginnings of video. And, for that matter, with other nascent technologies and their shared tendencies. Camera tricks, formal inventiveness, actualities, etc.
Also, while I've got you — I was thinking about the (perhaps apocryphal, cunningly Gunningly so) stories of genuine fears about the Lumière train's first projection and the stories of the outraged audience at an early showing of L'Age D'Or throwing ink at the screen in protest. Ink on the screen is a pretty amazing gesture (it is about to not go without saying that I am obviously staunchly in the camp of artists over reactionary right-wingers) even/especially with its scale of potency to poetry. Are there other related stories you'd like to share? Torn down screens? Shadow puppets between the projector and the screen? Well-deployed spoilers? *JM* -- *// // // J E S S E M A L M E D * 505.690.7899 // jesse.mal...@gmail.com // live to tape <http://livetotapefestival.tumblr.com/> jessemalmed.net <http://www.jessemalmed.net> // deep leap <http://www.deepleap.net> // nightingale <http://nightingalecinema.org/> // trunk show <http://trunk--show.com> // projective verse <http://urbanhonking.com/projectiveverse/> // bad at sports <http://badatsports.com/tags/jesse-malmed/> // acre_tv <http://acretv.org/> // western pole <http://westernpole.tumblr.com> * <http://www.chicagoreader.com/chicago/trunk-show-jesse-malmed-raven-falquez-munsell-bumper-stickers-eric-fleischauer/Content?oid=15719804>Trunk Show in Newcity <http://art.newcity.com/2015/05/30/portrait-of-a-gallery-trunk-show/>** / **JM on WDCB <https://soundcloud.com/wdcbnews/the-arts-section-chicago-fest>** /** Live to Tape in the Reader <http://www.chicagoreader.com/Bleader/archives/2015/05/14/live-to-tape-fest-is-like-if-weird-al-yankovics-uhf-were-a-gallery-installation> / **Trunk Show in the Chicago Reader <http://www.chicagoreader.com/chicago/trunk-show-jesse-malmed-raven-falquez-munsell-bumper-stickers-eric-fleischauer/Content?oid=15719804> / JM in the Reader <http://www.chicagoreader.com/Bleader/archives/2015/01/20/the-next-month-is-the-time-to-catch-the-thriving-local-experimental-video-art-scene> / Gapers Block <http://gapersblock.com/ac/2015/01/25/jesse-malmed-the-film-studies-center/> / South Side Weekly <http://southsideweekly.com/yes-to-humor-no-to-laughs/> / Chicago Tribune Best of 2015 <http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/music/ct-best-art-2015-ent-1213-20151209-story.html>*
