Lumiere video arises from the tradition of the French Lumiere brothers. Credited with some of the first footage captured, in 1895, the Lumieres are also recognized for holding the first public film screening, showing ten shorts that lasted only twenty minutes total. At the time, Louis Lumiere stated, “The cinema is an invention without a future,” believing that everyday photography and video was ultimately nonsensical. Yet, we stand firm that Lumiere principles are essential to our existence as artists, media producers, visual creatures, and world citizens.

I’ve been following his Lumiere videos (with the nice caption “This is a Lumiere video. The video contains no audio. Feel free to leave your own music running”) since the beginning. Good stuff, have a look.

A lot of interesting videoblogging stuff happening.

Videoblogging seminar last week at E.A.T rev (photos here). They did a workshop I unfortunately couldn’t attend but word on the street points to a collaborative project taking place this Sunday, planned to be the first thing aired on t-vlog. Videbloggers, Café La Suède, badminton, Amager — what’s not to like.

Also, Jon Froda and Andreas Haugstrup are doing a videoblogging in organizations seminar hosted by DONA.

Hopefully we’ll see a bit of vlog action at reboot as well.
