\u201cKinotron is a new form of film production.
\nThe analogy emerges immediately: cyclotron, synchrophasotron, etc.
\nIt\u2019s all about highest velocities and giant energies.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

From the Felix Sobolev archive<\/p>\n

The exhibition presents a little-known, yet unique, phenomenon in Ukrainian film history: the experimental works of the representatives of \u201cthe Kyiv school of scientific film,\u201d which emerged in the 1960s around a famous filmmaker Felix Sobolev. His films Seven Steps beyond the Horizon<\/em>, Me and the Others<\/em>, etc. were the first to show that scientific film can be popular with the mass viewer, being still an experimental synthesis of art and science. Yet, the vast majority of Sobolev\u2019s visions never became a reality.<\/p>\n

At the exhibition Kinotron<\/em>, which is the result of the archival research of Felix Sobolev and his colleagues, the utopian ideas by \u201cthe Kyiv school of scientific film\u201d will be shown to the public for the first time. Sobolev described the idea of \u201ckinotron\u201d as the \u201cnew form of film production,\u201d which would enable a \u201cpowerful acceleration\u201d of filmmaking and creative thinking in general. This idea remained on paper, as well as many other Sobolev\u2019s intentions.<\/p>\n

The exhibition concept, based on an archival discovery, suggests that Sobolev and his colleagues could have made a film adaptation of Stanis\u0142aw Lem\u2019s philosophical essay Summa Technologiae<\/em> \u2013 a film, which could have caused a revolution in film. Kinotron<\/em> exhibition juxtaposes these unrealized utopian ideas with the footage filmed by \u201cthe Kyiv school of scientific film\u201d under the conditions of strict bureaucratic control over film production. These films cover various spheres of contemporary science \u2013 from experimental sociology to astrophysics, from political science to cybernetics (special role in Ukrainian scientific film history belongs to its collaboration with the Institute of Cybernetics, founded by Viktor Glushkov in Kyiv). Today, in the times of a renewed interest to the ideas of acceleration and technological expansion of human capabilities, the idea of kinotron deserves its late implementation \u2013 at least in the exhibition format.<\/p>\n
