Being with the Birds: The Digital Explorations of Jacques Perconte
摘要
In this interview with French filmmaker Jacques Perconte, a pioneer of Net.art and digital image compression techniques, we explore his practice of landscape film, following the ridge path of a “media ecology”. How does his open-air practice, accompanied by new digital technologies, relate to an ecology of attention? to a search for the living being in images? to an environmental broadening through the distribution and exhibition of images? These are just some of the questions that help us to think of moving images as a possible unveiling of the infrastructures of the living.
