I wonder about the images I see. Narrative paths through videofootage Talk by Iris Blauensteiner 24 May 2023, 2 PM Media class, Semperdepot Iris Blauensteiner introduces her artistic and practical approach to narration along the process of making the film "The world is blue at its edges" (essay film, 15min, 2021, in collaboration with Christine Moderbacher). She is interested in the visible in relation to narrative gaps and ellipses that carry the potential of the imaginary. This workshop aims to discuss how dramaturgical concepts, structures and narrative models can be used as support or orientation to extract and clarify a story. Likewise, they can help to undermine, subvert or irritate narrative conventions and to experiment with organizing principles. Script writing and editing can be understood as a search for traces, as an invitation to “listen” to the material itself and thus to decide within the countless possibilities of producing narrative meaning.
