.re_potemkin - Battleship Potemkin.

Review by Rob Myers.

.re_potemkin is a crowdsourced re-make of the film "Battleship 
Potemkin". It is a ".f.reeP_" project by .-_-., part of a series of 
projects that embrace the ideology and means of production of 
contemporary media and technoculture in order to make art.

 From December 2006 to January 2007 .-_-. worked with 15 groups of 
students from Yildiz Technical University to reproduce Battleship 
Potemkin on a shot-by-shot basis. Not all shots were reproduced, there 
are empty black sections in the new film. The students and the setting 
of the university and its surrounds are very different from the 
locations and actors of Battleship Potemkin. .re_potemkin is a 
non-profit project rather than a corporation, and as such it has adopted 
a GNU or Wikipedia-style copyleft licence.
