KultKino


5:00 mins. Super-8/Digital. 1998

Capitalism is the avatar of image making formats. The birth of conceptual video stands as the unrecognized bastard child of avant-garde cinema. Economical, immediate, and disposable-the esthetics of video temporal and easily consumable. Looking back on old video works is like looking back at a decrepit memory. The quality of a projected film is likened to an organically pure experience. The technophiles are taking us all on an utterly reckless ride into the future. The digital era of image acquisition is in full stride as the filmic vehicle is in a constant decline. The avant-garde & experimental movements in 20th century cinema are in virtual collapse. KULTKINO is the requiem to this epic funeral. This film (video) features an extrapolated script from the manifestos of Dziga Vertov and the Unabomber.
