KEVIN B. LEE ON
THE FUTURE OF SURVIVAL
As a Deaf writer, film programmer, and landscape designer/planner based in Honolulu, Hawai‘i, Emerson Goo has a relationship with cinema that to some degree has to be mediated through other technologies. He engages in a conversation with Kevin B. Lee, Locarno Film Festival Professor for the Future of Cinema and the Audiovisual Arts at USI Università della Svizzera italiana, to discuss these kinds of mechanics: how cinema, as a malleable medium, could locate itself in the layeredness of the 21st century. Together, they explore “The Future of Survival”, a conference and three public encounters curated by Lee that connect audiovisual innovation to social and environmental responsibility. by Emerson Goo
