MediaArt Montage – "How Did You Do It..."

In 2023, Ingeborg Fülepp launched the project 50 Years of Montage (using the French term for film editing), by asking artists the question: "How did you do it..."—referring to their creative processes as media artists. This research project explores how these artists have worked across various formats, from film to digital editing, including interactive projects on CD-ROMs, as well as VR and AI-based works.

The participating artists, each using the technologies available in their respective eras, reveal how the act of manipulation—whether analog or digital—can be a profoundly creative process. Their work demonstrates that even with older techniques, it is possible to achieve exceptional artistic quality.
