„The Night Journey” – „gra” Billa Violi w poszukiwaniu nowych przestrzeni by Andrzej Pitrus

“…Wynikało to m.in. z intencji samych twórców, pragnących podkreślić odrębność środków wyrazu nowego medium, ale też z czynników obiektywnych: w sztuce wideo (inaczej niż w kinie) odbiorca nie tylko obcował z przestrzenią kadru, ale widział też urządzenie. Ponadto film – w klasycznym rozumieniu – montowany był liniowo, jako sekwencja ujęć, natomiast wideo dawało sposobność wykorzystania m.in. strategii mise-en-page. …”
