For more than forty years, Ken Jacobs, has operated as one of the most provocative spirits in experimental film. His films map out an indeterminate cinema, a cinema in which the temporal nature of film is examined and questioned to examine detail and salvage meaning from situations. Does it have to be and feel linear? Is 24 frames a second really the best way to capture time? He sets up situations in which you as the viewer can questions what you’ve just seen, can mine detail and information, and actively determine your own experience and relationship to what it is you’re seeing.
