Mediating the Real is a research project funded by FCT, the Foundation for Science and Technology, under the project EXPL/FER-FIL/0045/2021. It is conducted by researchers of the working group "Thinking Documentary Film", at CineLab/ Nova Institute of Philosophy (IFILNOVA), at FCSH/New University of Lisbon.

itical, epistemological and aesthetic values on multifold levels. Adopting a dialectical approach, we aim to generate a productive dialogue between artistic practice, philosophical thinking, critical theory and film aesthetics, so as to develop original perspectives on the performative agency of forms through documentary film.

CineLab workshop
👻 The Ghost in the Machine: the works of Ross Lipman

Through the course of his work, filmmaker/archivist Ross Lipman activates the past in a compassionate re-invention of the present. Across a series of works ranging from film to digital video to performance essays, he employs a diverse range of archival materials in pursuit of their elusive essence, and simultaneously reinvigorates them in new interpretations. His subjects stretch from the works of Samuel Beckett to the history of ventriloquism, to the ways in which technology itself encodes meaning. This program encompasses an overview of his work as a filmmaker, essayist, and archivist with a specialization in moving image restoration.

📅 21–22 September 2023 · 10 AM – 6 PM
