I
enjoyed that how MoMI (Museum of the Moving Image) displays the footage of
historical and technological advance of moving images. But personally, I liked
to have an experience as a time-traveler, when I walked down to the last section
of MoMI, where they re-constructed an early times movie theater. While I was
seating in the 'Egypt themed' movie theater, I would imagine myself as an
audience in 1920s movie theater. And I had a thought that watching movie and
going-movie-theater were much more important in the people's life in that time.
Because movie theater did not only exhibit movie, but also they offered a place
to seat and to have an experience like a tourist in Egypt. In contrast, people
in this day, do not go to movie theater as much as people in 30s and 50s, and
people in this day wouldn't be excited by how movie theater designed. The role
of movie theater in this day is merely projecting film but does have characteristics
that old time movie theater had. Ostensibly, the MoMI attempt educates its visitors
about the development of filming and technology. However, on the other hand, I felt
that people in 21st century mostly rely on moving images; they informed by
watching TV and entertained by watching TV and movie, yet they don't see how
those are made, it made by many people's elaboration, and it is a
conglomeration of human technology of moving image and the outcome from inventors'
painstaking works. Thus, I will more appreciate to people whom contributed to
make any films and TV programs.
