What are underlying aesthetics and what are the > specific interface contexts? > > *Social Cinema* > Has cinema found its way onto the Web? Did it change the essential features > of cinema? What are the new possibilities of collaborative production? Does > the future of film museums and cinematheques lie in online cinematic > databases? > * > Architecture and Moving Image* > Online video offers an immense database of moving images, which could be > displayed in urban public space. What are the existing cinematographic > visions of the future of the moving image in public space? (In films such as > Blade Runner, Minority Report, Children of Men, etc.) Which visions can be > directly implemented, and which will remain film scenography? > > *Video Sharing* > What are the standards and alternatives for sharing, licensing and hosting > moving images on the Web? This theme explores issues around the > distribution, licensing, collaborative production, and video hosting. > > *Technology and politics of the moving image* > What is the future of visual browsers?
