Twittamentary looks at how lives connect and intersect within the Twitter community as the real-time web accelerates serendipity. Bonds are forged as a result of unexpected encounters between strangers as they share moments of their lives in real time. The film is created in the open spirit of the Web. Twitter users have been invited to contribute story ideas, rich media and videos to the film via the movie's initial submissions website.

We hope to be joined by the director, Siok Siok Tan, after the screening via Skype.

 

Buffering... is an ongoing series of movie, TV and documentary screenings, curated by LSx. They plan to present the stories, people and perspectives that are shaping our relationships with emerging technologies and how they impact our culture. They also intend to provide access to the people behind those productions - think of Buffering... as a geek's film club.

For the launch of Life Online, Buffering... has selected three pieces that explore the social, technological and cultural impact of the internet: Twittamentary, PressPausePlay and Star Wars Uncut.
