Join us on Thursday October 3rd for an insightful conversation with Chi Jang Yin, award-winning experimental filmmaker and Associate Professor in the School of Cinematic Arts. The conversation will be moderated by Josh Tsui, Director of Innovation at CDM, and will discuss Yin’s experimental filmmaking and explore how history and technology inspire her work. She will delve into her unique creative process, using her latest film as a starting point for the conversation. This event will include a short screening of recent work.
The screening and Q&A will incorporate cinematic theory and technology practices and discuss how these two can be meaningfully intertwined through historical materials.
