The magic window: the emergent aesthetics of high-resolution large-scale video display

The wide spread dissemination of high-resolution flat-screen display devices will remediate the presentation of video, and therefore the aesthetics of video production. This technology will become the basis for a new video medium, which will relate to the current television in the way that television now relates to film. Many techniques and particular devices will be shared between the old and new video. At the same time, producers will discover styles and techniques better suited to new potentials (and limitations). Out of these discoveries will evolve a unique body of practice and critical theory.
