Spatial Montage - Nastuh Abootalebi

As I just was speaking about media theorist Lev Manovich yesterday, today I stumbled about one of the new moving media forms he describes in his works - Spatial Montage. Spatial Montage basically means multiframe applications, and the site of visual effects artist Nastu Abootalebi is a perfect example for the possibilities of this technique. You can watch the pre- and postproduction versions of his works in two screens nex to each other.

Nastuh’s side also shows the limitations of Spatial Montage. Although its only two screens, it’s sometimes very hard to follow the action in both frames.

The side was created by Scholz&Volkmer.
