Description

The Remembered Film by Victor Burgin explores the often-overlooked fragments of films that cross our perceptions and thoughts in everyday life. These "sequence-images" - brief, fleeting moments that blur the line between image and sequence - have not been considered before by film or photography theory. Burgin examines a range of these fragments, drawn from various media, including the internet, memory, and fantasy. He reflects on how our minds associate fragments from unrelated films, relate them to architectural settings, or experience feelings marked by remembered images. This unique approach provides a radical new way of thinking about film outside conventional cinema. By examining the everyday impact of film fragments, Burgin offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between cinema and our lives.
