Highly Defined

It's not the fall of the Berlin Wall but if you want to experience history, show up for our program Of Other Spaces on Wednesday night at 7pm when we will be projecting a film in HD for the first time, Laurent Montaron's Will there be a sea battle tomorrow? (2008). (Yes, that is destined to be a trivia question.) The short will be screened along with two others – She Might Belong to You and Metropolis, Report from China – in conjunction with the terrific gallery exhibition Of Other Spaces currently on view at the Columbus College of Art & Design (CCAD).

While we have used HD to project video in other spaces at the Wexner Center this is the first of what will eventually be the standard way that we (and everyone else) screen films. It is only a matter of time. The next will by a documentary on Bone-creator Jeff Smith on May 22 and then we expect the number to increase exponentially over the next year or two.
