Q1: The notion of static film is discussed. Baker says this form of art begins to give expression by combining the narrative and the non- narrative. Yet what exactly is the idea of a "Still film?" How is this different than a slideshow of multiple pictures? Is it possible to have a still film without a narrative expression? Who dictates that the art has a narrative- the artist or the viewers?
Q2: What exactly is a slowed film? How does this differ from a static film/ a still film? How is it possible for the playtimes to be extended to periods of 24 hours or a "time span of years?" Does the playtime mean the amount of time the work is displayed or the actual time it takes for the film to be shown once? Is a slowed film made up of video made to look like individual images or images put together in succession to make a film?
