La Imagen Incesante

A tour of some of the ubiquitous formats on current television: talk shows and confessional; debate programs and confrontation with the other; reality television programs that isolate a group of people as a representation of microsocieties; the contests and the challenge of crucial decisions; true crime and the limits between truth and fictionalization; skills contests and their relationship with work realities... And it also addresses the television attempts carried out by artists like Warhol; disruptive proposals such as the so-called Slow Television; the educational possibilities of the medium, which Rossellini envisioned early; literary programs and in-depth interviews, and experiments such as Peter Watkins' classic War Game or Jordi Evole's mockumentary Operación Palace.
