Kino-Eye

The human eye cannot see the beautiful chaos that cameras do. I agree with Vertov, on his statement regarding sensory exploration. Cameras do an excellent job at perceiving irregularities in world, and then turn them into art.  In this way, we share can express ourselves to others. Vertov brings to focus the “mechanical eye” (17). An expression he uses to describe a camera, and its ability to synthesize perfect pictures and scenarios. I am fairly new to the film world, but from what I have perceived, cameras are a wonderful tool that allows us to stitch together what once were meaningless visual scraps into emotional montages.
