“The Essence of the Ornament” By Cornelis de Bondt

In this presentation I will try to explore the concept of the ‘ornament’. I will do this by asking questions and showing examples, but not by attempting to formulate definitions. 

There are primarily two topics I will address: the differences between ‘plot’ and ‘story’, and between high-tech and low-tech. The latter with an example of a short video, shot with two different camera’s: my mobile phone and a professional camera which is used for television or professional movies. Also the audio which is used for the video is based on two different sample-types, yet based on the same midi-file. Do we gain something when watching the high-tech version, or is it just a matter of ornamentation?
