The film cluster contributed by outlining the diversity of approaches and levels of analysis about time in moving images. Some of these include recognising and manipulating several representations of time in a global working space and using long-term memory, namely:
- motion time
- character time
- narrative time
- film time
- lived time
- historical time
Character time and lived time, for example, are closely linked to the articulation of subjective time, also discussed during the ideation sessions.
Computational models were recognised to be very limited in their capacity to simulate or perform this kind of reasoning. However, during the workshop we considered the opportunities of some of these methods to contribute to our understanding of some of these higher-level representations.
