I’m really proud of be part of Borders in a single shot: After Farocki. A Project of the Temple University Film & Media Arts Graduate Programs in collaboration with Harun Farocki Institut in Berlin.

Following a structure similar to “Labour in a Single Shot” the project by Antje Ehmann and Harun Farocki, but takes the liberty of substituting the theme of “borders” as the thread that ties together the works of contributors: closed borders, soft borders, border crossings, perilous or liberating, exploring both the contemporary fluidity and control of borders of nationality, technology, nature, identity, media. In Borders in a Single Shot, the concept of “borders” might be seen, perhaps, as an elaboration on Farocki’s commentaries on the work of montage in film: the edge where conflicting realities either serve the narrative or threaten assumed meanings; the blurred boundary between video games and war games; the “editing ins” and “editing outs” of history, news, culture, entertainment.
