THE MACHINE AGE
Cinema came into being in the late 19th century, its existence necessitated by a world on the verge of widespread and rampant automatisation, machinisation, equipment, industry and armament; and on the immediate consequences of these phenomena: surveillance, nuclear war, accidental footage, dehumanization, a loss of individual personality and late 20th century paranoia. The present film series will aim to study in detail the manner in which a machine relates to another machine; the manner in which the tracking shot (which is made possible again, by railway line like rails) contemplates the diagonals, assembly lines and general geometries of modern factories and also, how the cinematic form can re-humanize those whose vitality is drained by their professional occupation inside these industries.
