Creativetime


From Creativetime and The 59th Minute: Video Art on the Astrovision Screen by Panasonic project comes You Should be the Next Astronaut.

...Astronaut is the first in a series of short films by Charles de Meaux that revisits "the principal cinema genres (here referencing science fiction) and plays with the conventional movie preview’s role as a prophecy, a promissory note, and a stoker of audience expectation. Working with the notion that trailers are more ubiquitous than feature-length films, de Meaux’s series, created in collaboration with artist and curator Agnieszka Kurant, engages the current condition of cultural consumption, in which products are increasingly consumed before they are encountered.This is a project of Anna Sanders Films that de Meaux founded with Pierre Huyghe and Philippe Parreno.
