VIDEO GAME (ON THE QUESTION OF THE OBJECTIVE GENESIS OF IMAGES)
Watching a film, we are immersed in the cinema, we are captivated and grinded by the unfolding story. But cinema does not respond to us in any way.

What if it turned into a living element with which we could interact? For example, to intervene in the plot of what is happening on the screen?

Протистояння стає максимально конкретним.

SPILLED INK

ABOUT THE CINEMA
Before we can talk about cinema, we must forget cinema. One should find in one's experience the traces of the influence of cinema, one should find the images that have arisen not only from watching cinema, but also from interpreting cinema.

FROM THE HEIGHTS OF LOVE
There is only one love mentioned aloud, in the car before the final scene: "You know, Nitto's fond of you...." The consequences of this love are obvious — they’ve been cast for posterity in concrete.

AN ATTEMPT TO RECONCILIATION
«Pourquoi le metteur en scène est le seul à ne pas baiser dans La nuit américaine?» - This was the inquiry posed by our friend. Naturally, I felt an initial urge to distance myself from him. To move away. To cross the street. To spit
