Film vs Digital? (and why are we still bothering to ask?)
My interest in film vs digital debates is not about attempting to argue one way or the other since I see viability in any persepctive that film is a dead anti-creative, restrictive medium that will pass into history as soon as the dieheard purists get over themslves :)
But the debate facinates me on a more cultural and philiosophical level. here are four articles that look at Film vs Digital from a varierty of pop-culture perspectvies. All have interestign things to say and yet somehow I find it strange to read any notion that there is even a question that film is dead. (flame on...)
