Peter Wollen, 1938 – 2019

„His ‚Signs and Meanings in the Cinema‘ was the first seminal book I read about film that actually made sense while bopping you to bits with its braininess and taking the engine of cinema completely apart in front of you while making you even more excited to jump in and go racing about in it just as soon as you possibly could.“

(aus Tilda Swintons Erinnerungen an Wollen)

„O is for Online. Strictly speaking, we are moving away from cinema now, yet the cinema itself is clearly mutating into a digital art, with its dependence on special effects and its potential for home delivery and interactivity. Digital technology is changing the whole nature of image-capture, allowing images to be changed, combined and appropriated. When cinema goes online, we will be able to download films and simultaneously summon up clips from other films for comparison, back- ground information from research libraries and archives, even out-takes that we can use privately to make our own revised versions of sequences.“

(aus Peter Wollens „An Alphabet of Cinema“, Buchstabe „O“, new left review 12, Nov/Dec 2001)
