Resumen de Notes sur les usages de l’image vidéo dans le film Gummo d’Harmony Korine
This communication studies the relationships between film and video in Harmony Korine’s Gummo (1997). TheKorine’s gesture of re-shooting video pictures asks questions about the narrative and expressive potentiality of videomedium. What possibilities such a practice allows to create ? First it’s a matter of examining the repeated dialecticalbetween sight and sound into interpolated fragments so as to establish a global and coherent video use. Then theformal properties of lo-fi video image, as opposed to argentic ones, are commented with the intention of building,finally, some hypothesises about human perception.
