“At one time, according to Sir George H. Darwin, the Moon was very close to the Earth. Then the tides gradually pushed her far away: the tides that the Moon herself causes in the Earth's waters, where the Earth slowly loses energy.” Italo Calvino, The Distance of the Moon/The Cosmicomics, 1965
To mark the programming of the festival’s upcoming edition, a reading of the cosmos as a magnifying lens on our contemporaneity. A cosmology of video related contents, reflecting on the influences of ‘the wide beyond’ on our daily lives.
