Man With a Movie Camera: The Global Remake is a participatory video shot by people around the world who are invited to record images interpreting the original script of Vertov’s Man With A Movie Camera (1929) and upload them to http://dziga.perrybard.net/. Software developed specifically for this project archives, sequences, and streams the submissions as a film. Anyone can upload footage. When the work streams your contribution becomes part of a worldwide montage that is, in Vertov’s terms, the “decoding of life as it is.”
