Video as pre-cinema, as the memory of a possible cinema. Video as the electronic background noise to the production of material images. Documentary shadowing of a subject as a dialectic instrument for a filmic reflection on Reality and Vision. Video-Memory as the first and last aspiration for cinema, from Vertov to widespread videotaping.
