CinemAI of attractions

As part of my larger work on developing a concept of “videographic memory studies,” my current research project “CinemAI of attractions” applies Tom Gunning’s foundational concept of “cinema of attractions” to the current moment of AI-generated and -impacted audiovisual culture. In connection to this project, I produced the video essay Toute la data du monde (2025, not yet publicly released), which uses AI-generated footage to re-imagine Alain Resnais’ famous essay film Toute la mémoire du monde (1956) in light of the current state of AI and its impact on collective memory, knowledge, and information storage.
