Encompassing experimental film and video, essay film, gallery-based
installation art, and digital art, Jihoon Kim establishes the
concept of hybrid moving images as an array of impure images shaped
by the encounters and negotiations between different media, while
also using it to explore various theoretical issues, such as
stillness and movement, indexicality, abstraction, materiality,
afterlives of the celluloid cinema, archive, memory, apparatus, and
the concept of medium as such. Grounding its study in
interdisciplinary framework of film studies, media studies, and
contemporary art criticism, Between Film, Video, and the Digital
offers a fresh insight on the post-media conditions of film and
video under the pervasive influences of digital technologies, as
well as on the crucial roles of media hybridity in the creative
processes of giving birth to the emerging forms of the moving
image. Incorporating in-depth readings of recent works by more than
thirty artists and filmmakers, including Jim Campbell, Bill Viola,
Sam Taylor-Johnson, David Claerbout, Fiona Tan, Takeshi Murata,
Jennifer West, Ken Jacobs, Christoph Girardet and Matthias Muller,
Hito Steyerl, Lynne Sachs, Harun Farocki, Doug Aitken, Douglas
Gordon, Stan Douglas, Candice Breitz, among others, the book is the
essential scholarly monograph for understanding how digital
technologies simultaneously depend on and differ film previous
time-based media, and how this juncture of similarities and
differences signals a new regime of the art of the moving image.
