. Eraserheads Panel discussion exploring cinema's history as the pre-eminent artform to represent workings of the memory. 18:20, Tue 16 Sept 2008 NFT3, BFI Southbank Michel Gondry and Pierre Bismuth's films and gallery work explore the dualities of 'erasure' in personal and public memory systems. Would we be happier without painful memories? Could we be more creative in the present if we were free from the burden of the past? Reflecting on these questions, and on cinema's rich history as the pre-eminent artform to represent workings of memory - as seen in our season The Time Machine this month - we welcome artist Pierre Bismuth, Prof Roger Luckhurst, author of The Trauma Question, sci-fi theorist Mark Bould, and film critic Jonathan Romney. http://www.bfi.org.uk/whatson/bfi_southbank/events/eraserheads . * * Film-Philosophy salon After hitting 'reply' please always delete the text of the message you are replying to.
