    Abstract

    The French philosopher Gilles Deleuze notes in his books on cinema that it was the advent of the Nazi state that generated the collapse of classical cinema, because it was the very substance of this kinematics that were “Horrible realised” by the spiritual automat incorporated in the image of the Fuehrer: In my work on the feature length documentary “Kim”, concerning a Danish WWII resistance fighter and his untimely death in the hands of the Gestapo as “a terrorist”, I have worked in depth and detail with this and related concepts. From constructing the virtuality of the past, to the actualization of the present, through manipulating the sound/vision relationship of footage. The concept of memory as “an intensive multiplicity”, has not only had decisive bearing on the editing of the film, but also in the composition of music and layering of different material in an array of forms. My paper is in all earnest an attempt to describe, in scientific terms how you construct an Intensive Memory. This work is an interdisciplinary study of cinema, music, sounddesign, architecture(s), philosophy and artistic development work.
