Using a combination of visual media (16mm film, 35mm slides, video), The Speed of Disembodiment examines how advances in technology, developed during the Industrial Revolution, changed our understanding of time, space, and nature. In looking at the roots of our industrialized culture, Kathleen Quillian explores how our connection to the cosmos became subsumed by a blind commitment to progress and profit. Resultantly, we witness the birth of cinema as a product of the very same enterprising pursuits.
