KINO GLAZ

Dziga Vertov believed his concept of Kino-Glaz, or "Cine Eye" in English, would help contemporary man evolve from a flawed creature into a higher, more precise form. He compared man unfavorably to machines:

“In the face of the machine we are ashamed of man’s inability to control himself, but what are we to do if we find the unerring ways of electricity more exciting than the disorderly haste of active people..."


"I am an eye. I am a mechanical eye. I, a machine, I am showing you a world, the likes of which only I can see" Dziga was quoted as saying.
