Abstract

Authors commonly draw on digital content (audio-visual or textual) in order to conceive their creations. In fact, since the end of the 2000s, some films and installations have been made with this type of content exclusively. These works allow for an exploration of the internet margins, i.e., the fraction of digital content which is not usually in the spotlight of the average internet user. This, in turn, leads to the preservation of symptomatic fragments of content that until then have remained overshadowed by the massive amount of material available on-line. This phenomenon encourages us to think about these marginal data and the inequalities of the internet, as well as its organization and storage (i.e., memory). This article deals with reuse cinema and its presence in the Anglo-French world, hoping to stimulate debate in Brazil.
