Time in Cinema – Session 6
Jean-Luc Godard famously stated that ‘[p]hotography is truth. The cinema is truth at 24 frames per second’. But cinema has long proven that this is not necessarily a definite truth. Indeed, film constantly works with time, rhythm and rearranging our perceptions of time. This session delves into the possibilities of different cinematic times.
With Peter Kubelka (AT) and Timothy Druckrey (US).

Metric Film/Metric Time
A talk by Peter Kubelka, including a screening of Arnulf Rainer (1960, 7′, B&W) which combines an image track consisting of black and white frames with a soundtrack alternating white noise and silence. This film had a profound influence on the development of structural film.
Timothy Druckrey
Time Scene(s)
This illustrated talk assesses the conditions of the temporal in an array of approaches to the cinematic that defy the tropes of traditional film studies and yet provoke the possibilities invoked by a range of recent artistic projects. Time Scene(s) will confront an array of ‘temporalities’ engaged with the interrogation of systems that defy the normative flows of representability.
