Moving Image Source is a major new website of the Museum of the Moving Image (New York City) devoted to the history of film, television, and digital media. Made possible with support from the Hazen Polsky Foundation, it features original articles by leading critics, authors, and scholars; a calendar that highlights major retrospectives, festivals, and gallery exhibitions at venues around the world; and a regularly updated guide to online research resources. Film critic Dennis Lim currently serves as editor-in-chief.
The launch of Moving Image Source was marked by a special program at The Times Center in Manhattan at 6:30 p.m. on June 5, featuring a conversation between directors Werner Herzog (Encounters at the End of the World, opening June 11) and Jonathan Demme (The Silence of the Lambs).
Moving Image Source is updated every Thursday with additions to the Articles and Calendar sections.

Famous quotes containing the words moving, image and/or source:
“Photographs may be more memorable than moving images because they are a neat slice of time, not a flow. Television is a stream of underselected images, each of which cancels its predecessor. Each still photograph is a privileged moment, turned into a slim object that one can keep and look at again.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“Two dollars now prognosticate
An image supine and elate
For Jenny sweet will keep the date....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“The act of birth is the first experience of anxiety, and thus the source and prototype of the affect of anxiety.”
—Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
