Product Description
Book Description
Legendary filmmaker Chris Marker has used the format of the CD-Rom to create a multi-layered, multimedia memoir. The reader explores "zones" of travel, war, cinema, and poetry, navigating through image, film, photography, and text, as if physically exploring Marker's memory itself. This sui-generis work is a veritable 21st-century Proust, an exploration of the state of memory in our digital era.
About the Author
Filmmaker, photographer, writer, and traveler Chris Marker is a living legend among cineastes and cinephiles. His devoted admirers include Martin Scorsese, Terry Gilliam, (whose Twelve Monkeys was a remake of Marker's best known film, La Jetée), and Susan Sontag.

Calm down!,

This review is from: Immemory (CD-ROM)
I have only seen the French version, but be aware that this CD-ROM is not as "visual" as you might expect. It was made using HyperStudio in 1997, and the real content is the text. It does have an image slide show and a few clips, but most of the visuals are backgrounds for the text. It is cool, and I enjoyed navigating the terrain charted by this "cartographier le pays imaginaire." But you'll be happier if you tone down the expectations--it is not really a world to get lost in or an interactive film.

Content Sounds Great -- Wish It Worked on a PC,
By A Customer
This review is from: Immemory (CD-ROM)
Why this is being released as a Mac-only CD-ROM is not clear. Since more than 90% of the personal computers in use are Wintel (MS Windows with x86 processors) machines (used to be called "IBM Compatibles"), it seems silly to release a CD-ROM that only works on a Mac (great as they are).
