Thanks for this, Mark. I had forgotten what a beautiful film Water and Power is. The sequence you cite may very well be what I’m calling slow shutter. I’ll compare it to the one I reference in my study of George Kuchar’s video diaries. If they’re the same, you have helped me make an important point. I’ll let you know.

If so, this is a really old technique in the analog world. Are you thinking like the sequence starting at 2:38 here from Pat O'Neill's Water and Power? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBmaF71XnLM ? Or something else?

Surely there must be numerous comparisons in both commercial/technical publications and art-oriented ones. Digital radically enlarges the field of possibility, so I imagine most comparisons would emphasize that. I’m especially interested in the digital effect called “slow shutter.” Is there a physical equivalent? If so, can anyone refer me to an artist who uses it?
