Society for Animation Studies Conference
Rose Bond will present “Poetics & Public Projection: Layered History – Redrawn Memory” at the 25th Annual Conference for the Society for Animation Studies 2013 in Los Angeles, California.
This paper investigates aspects related to multi-channel animated work that coexists with architecture – work that merges spectacle with content. Referencing historic projections, such as Glimpses of the USA by Charles and Ray Eames (1959) as well as her own multi-channel piece proposed for the Smithsonian, Bond will explore several lines of inquiry: the notion that buildings hold accretions of memory; how the brain seems to process multiple projections; and comment upon the archive and narratives that (re)shape them.
