MEMBER EXCLUSIVE - SAIC LECTURE SERIES - FALL 2023
THE TIMES, THE CHRONICLE, THE WITNESS, AND THE OBSERVER
Tuesday evenings through December 5 / Lecturer: Daniel Eisenberg
Our fall Lecture Series celebrates 30 years of essential contributions to moving-image culture that alums from the Department of Film, Video, New Media, and Animation at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago have produced. The class will frame specific issues relating to non-fiction moving-image practice such as the multiple valences of the archive; the question of the document; the recuperation of repressed histories; the poetics of subjective perspectives within communal experience; and technological adaptation, to name a few. These topics will frame conversations with our alumni who have extended these themes over the last decades in their own work and practice. This approach traces a through-line from late 20th century media practices to current modes of production, giving particular emphasis to the ways independent moving image makers have both changed the conventions of filmmaking and adapted to the digital turn of the 21st century.
