Inscenizacje intermedialności w filmie Tlen Iwana Wyrypajewa

Abstract

Intermediality of the cinema has been discussed many times, and what is especially indicated is a specific “imprint” that was left on film by the theatre. Similarities between a movie and a performance are described well by the mise-en-scene category (placing on the stage). By replacing the analogue picture with the digital one, the mise-en-page category becomes more familiar to today’s mechanisms of creating film. Intermediality of modern film should be seen as a peculiar realization of common points of arts and media. In Ivan Vyrypaev’s Oxygen, functioning of these intermedialities is based on mutual circulations of different means of expression, both theatrical and cinematographical. Vyrypaev based his film’s construction on a convention of recording a CD, consistently using poetics of a postmodern videoclip.
