Brakhage: In-Camera Edit Example

Window Water Baby Moving (1959) This is a film of a birth. It's very natural, therefore it is also a little graphic. It's an amazing piece and I strongly encourage you watching it but it can be uncomfortable at times.

struggles

The "struggles" that art experienced will always be there, no matter what technology stage or perception level is. Since art is defined by people, it is extremely hard and reach consensus over standards of arts, by the fact that people tend to believe whatever they want to believe.














Starry Night would never be recognized if the society never shifts its standard of arts; Kony 2012 would not be criticized if people never change. This is all about the undetachable subjectivity of people. Arguments will persist as long as the center of arts is still the audiences.
