Abstract
Victor Burgin’s text provides a theoretical reflection on the technological transformations of what he calls the “field of ‘photofilmic’ practices.” He postulates that “cinema” directs our minds to “technological mutation,” while “art” evokes the “ideologico-economic appropriation.” Using as a framework of reasoning themes that gave rise to the publications of the Key Debates series – screen and stories – and adding the idea of virtual object as resulting from the convergence of the digital with the contemporary, Burgin highlights the advent of new “photofilmic narrative forms” characterized by the combination of complexity and affectivity.”
