Part guidebook and part manifesto, the book takes a fresh look at what it's like to create work in a world that has become increasingly fragmentary. Through casual and direct discussions Broken Screen offers a detailed navigation through the ideas behind the important yet under-documented visual language of nonlinear narratives, split screens, and fragmentary visual planes that define the most progressive moving images today. Presented in 26 illustrated chapters, the focus here lies on the shattering of the linear narrative in the visual arts through the use of image-based work to articulate the speed and fragmentation of modern life. Perhaps best of all, Broken Screen is a unique opportunity for readers to learn the thoughts and personal beliefs of these artists in their own words and imagery, unencumbered by critical or commercial filters, and communicated in the manner of a conversation between friends. It also seeks to produce a cultural manifesto for new communication, expression, and understanding in both the present and future--much as Marshall McLuhanis Medium is the Massage did. With its accessible conversational style, forward-thinking graphic design, and over 300 high-contrast images, Broken Screen extends across many disciplines including art, film, design, and architecture, and is sure to become an important document of our time. 285904 15 11 2006 Broken Screen: 26 Conversations With Doug Aitken Expanding the Image, Breaking the Narrative total:26|5:13|4:10|3:2|2:1|1:0| 26 113 43 5 5 1 false false Tue Sep 25 00:17:25 -0700 2007 Tue Sep 25 00:22:15 -0700 2007 more...]]> 5 0 false false Fri Aug 03 16:57:03 -0700 2007 Fri Aug 03 16:58:39 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Fri Feb 08 19:54:09 -0800 2008 Fri Feb 08 19:56:44 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Thu Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Sun Jul 29 16:57:49 -0700 2007 Sun Jul 29 16:57:57 -0700 2007 3 0 false false Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Tue Jan 01 19:17:26 -0800 2008 Tue Jan 01 19:18:48 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Fri Sep 04 22:21:48 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 04 22:21:48 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Nov 15 13:33:42 -0800 2009 Fri Sep 04 08:57:40 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 04 08:57:43 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Mon Jul 27 05:00:25 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 27 05:02:25 -0700 2009 1 0 0 false false Wed Jul 22 08:35:50 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 22 08:35:50 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Mon Jul 13 12:17:22 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 13 12:17:22 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed May 20 08:02:13 -0700 2009 Wed May 20 08:02:13 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed May 13 16:36:21 -0700 2009 Wed May 13 16:36:21 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Feb 10 10:43:21 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 10 10:43:33 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Sat Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2006 Wed Jan 28 15:42:34 -0800 2009 Sat Jul 04 18:33:14 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Jan 27 19:21:39 -0800 2009 Tue Jan 27 19:21:44 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jan 24 17:08:51 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 24 17:09:04 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Fri Dec 05 01:48:25 -0800 2008 Fri Dec 05 01:48:25 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Tue Nov 18 20:02:39 -0800 2008 Tue Nov 18 20:02:39 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Mon Oct 13 12:24:57 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 13 12:24:57 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sat Oct 04 20:23:47 -0700 2008 Sat Oct 04 20:23:47 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=294649
