New digital cinema

I think that it is interesting to see where nods are given where it can be due. The growth and influence of pop culture and trying to tailor work to the mass media is an interesting notion that it seems that we are all set to do. Not that we are willing to conform, but to experience and influence through reinvention is great. I hate to look at things as borrowing ideas and out right thievery of work. I think its more like sampling from my aspect. Much like a dj samples sound we sample techniques to reinvent the standards and limitations we face today. Kind of exciting to think of the possibilities of appropriation that sit at our finger tips. Text as images is a field that I think is still growing and will continue to do so well into 3-d cinema and push our relations with the written and spoken word. Tangible aspects and interaction like nodes through web based media is still growing and with the advent of site like youtube for poop culture and I don't know what the hell else people think on there and Vimeo for video artists and others along those lines allows for a great opportunity for visual artists to reach out and collaborate without having to wait till shows or festivals to become familiar with work and to create a dialogue of growth and resources for the artists themselves. To me I don't think there is such separation between visual and musical. I try to work and think of editing along the same aspects that I am now investigating scoring music for pieces. Like most movies we all have a feel to know when some action is supposed to happen based on prior ensembles that we have visually taken in. It is great to see how integral and prominent pieces are that work against this formula in developing stories. This read seams to echo a lot of ideas on what I have been reading in other articles. It just seems like video art is about to explode with growth and fruition in collaboration as it is becoming more and more a staple in culture. Not necessarily consumer culture the way it is now but to signs and signifers of ideas through visual and auditory implementation in effecting some sort of emotional response not driven by corporate moogling.
