Blending philosophy, art history, science, and alternative filmmaking practices, participants will engage with foundational texts and films that challenge narrative cinema, authorship, realism, spectatorship, and the mechanics of vision itself.Rather than focusing on polished outcomes, this class emphasizes inquiry, experimentation, and accessibility, creating a supportive environment for participants to explore film as a medium of investigation.What We’ll Explore:What defines 'experimental' cinemaFilm as inquiry, not explanationSeeing vs. viewing vs. lookingMemory, movement, time, and perceptionThe relationship between image, body, and meaningAccessible methods for experimental filmmakingOpen feedback, discussion, and shared works-in-progressReadings &amp; Texts (Selections):Works by Henri Bergson, Gilles Deleuze, Roland Barthes, Laura Mulvey, Werner Herzog, Eadweard Muybridge, Bruce Lee, John Alec Baker, and others.
