Abstract

Following the first years of a pirate film society, this paper means to show how cinematographic apparatus can be rearranged using new technologies. By doing so, it examines the logic behind the specification of media technology, taking into account both the direct engagement in film distribution and consumption and the establishment of ancillary structures to promote and regulate such activities.
