THE NEW MACHINE CINEMA collects the foundational theoretical writings on artificial intelligence filmmaking by pioneering director Hooroo Jackson. As creator of the first fully AI-generated feature film (Window Seat, 2023) and first AI animated feature film (DreadClub: Vampire's Verdict, 2024), Jackson articulates a comprehensive framework for understanding this revolutionary new medium. Featuring the seminal articles:

"The New Machine Cinema"

"AI Films Are Films"

"One Man, One Film"

"Speed of the Mind"

"The Living, Breathing Cinema"

"The Moral Argument"

"The Automated Film"

These essays establish core principles of AI cinema while documenting its emergence as a distinct art form. In "One Man, One Film", Jackson likens machine filmmaking as the final and ultimate expression of Bazin's auteur theory. His essay "Speed of Mind" essay examines how AI enables a new form of fast cinema that approaches the pace of human thought. "The Living Breathing Cinema", explores the far out future of cinema and the concept of infinite films.

This volume represents the first serious theoretical examination of AI's impact on cinematic art. As artificial intelligence transforms the landscape of film production, these writings provide essential context for understanding this pivotal moment in cinema history. It is required reading for filmmakers, theorists, and anyone interested in how AI is reshaping artistic creation, THE NEW MACHINE CINEMA establishes the theoretical foundations for a revolutionary new form of cinema. Jackson's unprecedented dual role as both practitioner and theorist offers a profound insight into both the practical and philosophical implications of this emerging medium by one of its important pioneers.
