Jon Jost: Digital Works

Independent filmmaker and digital video auteur Jon Jost presents his work exploring the creative and technical aspects of those qualities specific to digital video as an artistic medium.  Jost, the first recipient of the John Cassavetes Award for Lifetime Achievement as an Independent Filmmaker, has been making award-winning and challenging films since 1963.  After shooting five feature films in 35mm, nine features on 16mm and numerous short pieces on film, Jost "deliberately" and "willfully" turned to digital video in 1996 upon discovering the unique possibilities of this new medium.
