The Future of the Moving Image
by Nishant Shah published Nov 10, 2008 last modified Nov 11, 2008 09:06 AM — filed under: , , , , , ,

Practitioners, film makers, artists, theoreticians and academics, blurring the boundaries of both their roles and their disciplines and areas of interest, came together to move beyond convergence theories – to explore the continuities, conflations, contestations and confusions that Internet Technologies have led to for earlier technologies, but specifically for the technology of the moving image.
