Kubelka

"Twenty-four frames, which you feel , which you always feel" - Kubelka
I had never considered the commonalty between frames per second and notes per measure. They share the principle of rhythm. "Cinema is not movement"  -Kubelka Most would respond with, No it is movement. Kubelka explains that each frame is a still image. We are simply viewing still images, not actual movement. The still images are show to a rhythm found in the flow of twenty-four frames per second. Each second is the equivalent of a measure of music. The emphasis of your own reality and understanding that you cannot truly understand any other reality really stands out in my mind. I am a creator and with each creation I find a meaning behind it. If you create something based on something in your reality, it won't necessarily be completely be understood by someone living a different reality. "The danger in film-making lies in thinking that bringing nature to people will be useful"-Kubelka. Film making brings the creator's world. This world is different for your own reality and can be interpreted in an infinite amount of ways by viewers.

Creating something locked to our own reality is not a hindrance, it's a reality~
Filming at 24fps (or any fps really) won't ever be the same I think, thanks Kubelka!
