Remixing media, crossing (shifting) borders

Today, Live Cinema artists continue the traditions of audiovisual experimentation, and are now aided by digital technologies. Realtime montage, drawing, painting, mixing, re-mixing, processing and generating visuals are some examples of contemporary practises. There are many approaches to this multidisciplinary art form, which makes it hard to pin down, define and categorize. Nevertheless, the raison d’etre of Live Cinema has remained constant throughout the century: to offer alternative experiences for traditional cinematic narration and set-up, in realtime and for audience in various contexts, ranging from underground warehouses, to museums of contemporary art or on the internet.
