Dear All,
I'm a student at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig, Germany
where I'm going to write my final thesis about amorce or blackfilm.
I'm envisioning a short history of it's employment as a stylistic
device rather than it's actual use a transport material or other,
merely practical uses.
Here's a short list of films I find to be symptomatical for interest:
Sans Soleil (Marker)
Stranger than Paradise (Jarmusch)
Kárhozat (Banishment) (Tarr)
9/11 (Segment by Inaritu)
Ici et Ailleurs (Godard)
free radicals (Lye)
Kill Bill II (Tarantino)
Vladimir et Rosa (Godard and Gorin)
Hurlements en Faveur de Sade (Debord)
Arnulf Rainer (Kubelka)
The Flicker (Conrad)
What I seek is general or specific literature either philosophical
(and be it Heideggers "das nichts nichtet" ("Was ist Metaphysik?")
or Sartres "L'Être et le néant") or from a media studies point of view,
regarding this matter and thus, of course, some more films that do
explicitly use blackfilm.
My apologies for my mediocre English and my unsophisticated theoretic
skills.
Thanks in advance,
Falk Messerschmidt
