Key Points

  • Explores how experimental cinema challenges traditional views of time and space, leading to new narrative possibilities.
  • Key themes include the impact of globalization on media perceptions and the aesthetics of dead time in film.
  • Observational analysis of films from the 90s highlights their use of visual plasticity to reshape storytelling.
  • Implications of this exploration reflect a shift toward experimental approaches in a globalized media landscape.

Abstract

A discussion of the treatment of time and space in 90s experimental cinema coupled with a consideration of globalization and its relationship to televisual media. This sets the stage for an analysis of the ways experimental cinema uses dead time and visual plasticity to challenge the concept of a ‘window on the world’ and a hysteria for the present.
