This is a short video recording that documents the generative software, "Optical De-dramatization Engine (O.D.E.) applied in 40-hour cycles to Thomas Ince's 'The Invaders', 1912". Twenty frames were sampled from each minute of Ince's 40-minute film. The software takes each sampled minute and dynamically extends it to one hour, choosing its own rescaling and translation movements that dynamically reframe the images. The band of data along the bottom of the frame indicates the actual local time-of-viewing the software-driven display (but not this recorded documentation). The band of data also displays the most recent inter-title from Thomas Ince's narrative film. The inter-titles change as the software proceeds through the 40-hour generative display of frames from the 1912 film.
