Meaning:
From French cinma, shortening of cinmatographe (term coined by the Lumire brothers in the 1890s) - Ancient Greek (kinema) "movement", from (kineo) "to move, to put in motion".

This process generally involves presenting chiefly linear information (the story) through a battery of shots. Using various cinematic configurations, the artist creates expectations in his audience, which thus elaborates on the given information. The audience is drawn into a decoding cycle controlled by subliminal interactions of reality and illusion. The result is the mystique of cinema art cinesthetic impact. ![]()
