The remembered film

by Burgin, Victor

"Victor Burgin examines a kaleidoscope of film fragments drawn from a variety of media as well as the Internet, memory and fantasy. Among these are sequences of such brevity they might almost be stills. Such 'sequence-images', as Burgin calls them, are neither strictly 'image' nor 'image-sequence' and have not been addressed hitherto either by film or photography theory. He considers these through some typical individual experiences - reflecting on such disparate occurrences as the association in memory of fragments from otherwise unrelated films, of the relation of a recollected film image to an architectural setting, or of feeling 'marked' by an image remembered from a film."--Jacket.
