I found this article to be very interesting. The concept of the montage through hieroglyphics was something new with the idea of drawing “two hieroglyphs of the simplest series to be regarded not as their sum, but as their product.” The viewpoint of conflict in contrast with the cell of montage was something new to me. Conflict with the shot and frame as well as conflict between matter and viewpoint, spatial nature, event and temporal nature and optical experience. Relating some of the concepts to Potemkin, the two shots we are presented do show a production of dynamizaation in space. It is interesting to see the two shots separately, without seeing the movement in between. The images shown in the article definitely help to understand the authors points. This made the article more understandable and easier to relate to .
