Video and Resistance

This article discusses art's role in a technologically advanced world. It talks about how artists have abandoned the traditions of art and have fallen into a "role of mechanical production. with the production of photographs and documentaries as art. The author goes over the requiem for documentaries and shows how the producers and directors of these documentaries can force the viewer to believe what the director wants them to believe while hiding from them the whole truth. This is true to most documentaries as they are seeking to further their cause and not allow for any sympathy whatsoever in the opposing viewpoint.
