El efecto Kulechov

Ask me anything   En la década de 1920, Lev Kulechov proponía a sus alumnos del Instituto de Cine Ruso un curioso experimento: colocaba el mismo primer plano de un famoso actor del momento, junto tres imágenes diferentes (un plato de sopa, una niña muerta y una mujer recostada elegantemente) y pedía a sus alumnos que identificaran las sensaciones del rostro del aquel hombre. Con ello, demostró que el efecto de un plano, de una imagen, podía ser completamente dependiente de aquellos o aquellas con las que se combinara.

Beyond the barricade, is there a world you long to see?

Typee: A romance of the South Seas Herman Melville. New York: Pr. by John S. Fass at the Harbor Press for the Limited Editions Club, 1935.
Melville’s account of life among the cannibals of the Marquesas Islands, with an introduction by Raymond Weaver, his first biographer, and with watercolor illustrations byMiguel Covarrubias, who signed the colophon. This is numbered copy 1012 of 1500 printed on Worthy Paper Co. rag paper, bound by George McKibbin &amp; Son in full East Indian tappa cloth with the spine stamped in black and green in a design by Covarrubias also used on the slipcase. ______________________________________ “But these reflections now seldom obtruded upon me; I gave myself up to the passing hour, and if ever disagreeable thoughts arose in my mind, I drove them away. When I looked around the verdant recess in which I was buried, and gazed up to the summits of the lofty eminence that hemmed me in, I was well disposed to think that I was in the ‘Happy Valley’, and that beyond those heights there was naught but a world of care and anxiety. As I extended my wanderings in the valley and grew more familiar with the habits of its inmates, I was fain to confess that, despite the disadvantages of his condition, the Polynesian savage, surrounded by all the luxurious provisions of nature, enjoyed an infinitely happier, though certainly a less intellectual existence than the self-complacent European.” ~Chapter XVII
