Abstract

Film and website as part of an online international exhibition.

The film uses an unusual filmmaking practice in a novel way. The collaborators involved in the project were spread around the world. Dani Landau filmed projections onto objects and re-filmed the projects in order to bring together multiple elements from the collaborators into the film. The novel approach has been acknowledged by peer reviewers.

[The film is included in an online group exhibition ‘How to Become a Posthuman’ (2022-2024) which has thus far been visited over six thousand five hundred times by people from sixty-four countries across six continents. https://www.fabulationforfuture.net/
The film has also been seen at the TENT Biennale in Kolkata, December 2022.
Double blind peer review for Screenworks Journal states the film and associated paper:
'demonstrates a novel and innovative approach to collaborative filmmaking. The use of projections onto diverse objects, such as a book, forest sculpture, sink, sari, and accordion, showcases a unique method of creative imbrication. This approach allows for the synthesis of different artistic elements and practices, contributing something new to the field of filmmaking.']
