Isiah Medina is a picturemaker in the picturemaking business. He believes cinema can do the work of philosophy but without language. In the same way Plato was inspired by the mathematics of his time and would include it in his dialogues, I can use the cinematic cut to present set-theoretical ideas of infinity as a counterpoint within filmic experiments and genre exercises, inventing new forms of movie magic.
