Discover the transformative power of technologies on cultural content with a series of talks showcasing innovative practices and reflections
Martine Beugnet & Lily Hibberd, LARCA
film aesthtics Browsing experience → linear form (2D) in film archives
Focus on the effect of tactile and kinestetic effect of haptic interfacing data clouds, maps or mosaïcs: regimes of vision, between hand and eye, proximity and distance, ... online or in museum installations
Experience of the archive, functional and phenomenal way
media archaeology: continuation of technique, science and visual culture. Controllable optical devices to enhance visual capacities. User as optical hand
Changeable display of moving extracts
difference between dh app and analytical tools for scholarly research vs for broad public
think through contemporary modes of reception
aesthetics of the interface, tactility, haptics: zoom, pan, rescaling spatio-navigation
film and visual archives navigation that aligns with other video forms, cinematic techniques of viewing (zoom, pan, ...)
Cloud or map
- visible manifestation of bulk
- visualisation of large archives: sheer quantity of objects in the collections
- first experience is opposite of taking control
experience du non-savoir, Didi-Huberman
Initial experience, opposite of Leibniz phenomenal perception
- cannot identify the whole, except maybe through analogy (milky way, tapestry, ...)
- what of the surrounding space, dark shadowy background: negative space
- enclosed space and surrounding darkness: trigger imagination Deuleuze out of field
navigation in large visual archives
- engaging with scale, motionlessness
- dealing with time-based media that already encompasses the kinestetics: 2 stage process
sensory moving image archive project 2017-2019
aimed at the general public appearance is based on color similarity, stochastic neighbor embedding, figural content or shape, dominant composition, etc.
Zoom possible accross clusters. Rack-mouvement: Change of focus in the camera movement. Typical effet of pix-plot effect on 2d images.
When we click an image on screen a window frame opens.
- choose a screening mode (overlay or full screen)
- quilt assemblage of frame
Once film or extract starts playing, internal grammar takes over Temporality and grammar takes over.
Stanley Cavell, to watch a film, succesion of frames, recognize our alienation but also recognise the resistance of images to our understanding
Eye Filmmuseum collection, Studio Louter 2022
interactive panoramic room: searching the collection in a non-semantic way → color, emotion, movement, to reveal unexpected similarties between cinematic fragments
Replace camera with interface in the classic quote of W Benjamin
- panoramic display
- swooping and rising, disrupting and isolating, stretching or compressing a sequence, enlarging or reducing an object
recompose the collection through various metadata categories spatialised video montage
- dynamic effect of motion blur
- fluctuating spatial architecture of the display
- systemic reshuffling
- reconfiguring frames in layers of various sizes and ...
- ensemble of choreographic movements
shift away from stating, lineary content non-narrative structure, recombination, remix
Navigation of digitized AV archives
a means to navigate and consume in the infinity of supermarket villages
account for the aesthetic experience that they offer
reformated, magnified, intensified
Multilayers form of sensation and temporalities chaotic and unrelated data towards a digital ecology

- Computational archives FNS: interactive visualisation frameworks for 200000hours of archival video. Create coherence in these massive archives. Scalable in a particpatory engagement model. Knowledge production and stiumlate innovation in archival practices. Tools for search rooted in gramato-centrism when expert knowledge is key to entry. Query-diven, text-searches. Computer revolution offers a paradigm shift for museum. Archives as new terrain for curators, curate new archival ontologies and narratives

stereovision
- Lenticular stereoscope. Success at 1851 exhibition. Said support of Queen Victoria. Dickens state while agreable, technology not philosophical important but many interresting applications possible.

Connexion cinema and stereoscope. Kafka apreciation of the technology.
Adaptation to the dispositive. Narraturalize disjonction. vision equivalent of the imperialism industrialisation of visual consumption
