Considering how culturally indispensable digital technology is today, it is ironic that computer-generated art was attacked when it burst onto the scene in the early 1960s. In fact, no other twentieth-century art form has elicited such a negative and hostile response. When the Machine Made Art examines the cultural and critical response to computer art, or what we refer to today as digital art. Tracing the heated debates between art and science, the societal anxiety over nascent computer technology, and the myths and philosophies surrounding digital computation, Taylor is able to identify the destabilizing forces that shape and eventually fragment the computer art movement.

R505 Discovery Miles 5 050 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

A fully bilingual catalogue (English/Japanese) for an exhibition of the Japanese video/film artist Yu Araki, at The Container, Tokyo. The catalogue explores in writings and images Araki's practice and the exhibition "Wrong Translation," featuring a video installation inspired by Araki's recent residency in Santander, Spain, summer 2013. The video installation, entitled "ANGELO LIVES," makes references to Shusaku Endo's novel "Silence" (1966), and fictitiously narrated by Anjiro, a Japanese convicted murderer who fled Japan to the Malaysian state Malacca in the 16th century, returning later back to Japan with Saint Francis Xavier and two additional Jesuits, as an interpreter, in what is documented as the first Jesuit mission to Japan. The installation also forges false connections between the spread of Christianity to the new world and the export of olive oil. The Container, as the name suggests, is no more than a constructed shipping container (485x180x177cm) in Nakameguro, Tokyo. The exhibition space, the brainchild of Tokyo-based curator Shai Ohayon, invites Japanese and international artists to make site-specific installations four times a year. Each installation remains on view to the public for two-and-a-half months. www.the-container.com

The 0ne Rupee Film Project is an independent and ultra-low-budget crowd-funded feature length docu-fiction out of India. The makers of the film had to go through a 474 day long fundraising campaign. They asked for a minimum contribution of one rupee from everyone they came across. Thus, 2,85,000 Indian rupees could be raised to complete the production and the initial stages of post-production. The film is titled Aashmani Jawaharat aka Diamonds in the Sky but the campaign had been so huge that it is still popularly recognized as the one rupee film. The books of this series contains stories, backgrounds and experiences the makers of the 0ne Rupee Film Project had during this extra-ordinary journey of theirs. If you are interested in what kind of reality the marginal independent filmmakers have to face or what unique face of reality they see everyday, this book will surely amuse you.

Francois Truffaut called "Night and Fog" "the greatest film ever made." But when Alain Resnais finished his documentary, with its depiction of Nazi atrocities, the resistance of the French censors was fierce. A mere decade had passed since the end of the war, and the French public was unprepared to confront the horrors shown in the film--let alone the possibility of French complicity. In fact it would be through "Night and Fog" that many viewers first learned, as film critic Serge Daney put it, "that the worst had only just taken place."

An engrossing account of the genesis, production, and legacy of Resnais's incomparable film, this book documents in extraordinary detail how a film that began as a cinematic spin-off of an educational exhibition on "resistance, liberation, and deportation" went on to become a significant step in the building of a collective consciousness of the tragedy of World War II. Sylvie Lindeperg frames her investigation with the story of historian Olga Wormser-Migot, who played an integral role in the research and writing of "Night and Fog"--and whose slight error on one point gave purchase to the film's detractors and revisionists and Holocaust deniers. Lindeperg follows the travails of Resnais, Wormser-Migot, and their collaborators in a pan-European search for footage, photographs, and other documentation. She uncovers creative use of liberation footage to stand in for daily life of the camps featured to such shocking effect in the film--a finding that raises hotly debated questions about reenactment and witnessing even as it enhances our understanding of the film's provenance and impact.

A microhistory of a film that altered the culture it reflected, "Night and Fog "offers a unique interpretation of the interworking of biography, history, politics, and film in one epoch-making cultural moment.
