"fm01 will offer a total software environment for the semi-automated production, scripting and editing of endless cinema.

ap production fm01 transposes non-metaphoric systems and grammar theory (of computer languages, abstraction and data containers) to the realm of expanded cinema. a relational, nodal and active language of connection will be formulated to descend through levels of scene, shot and frame (stored and to be shot). visual and syntactical analysis software will form a large part of the fm01 engine.
fm01 is not totally automated and in parallel with ap03 (apOS) forms a mechanism of personal insertion into systematics. fm01 is not conceived as an engine for the manipulation of generic clips (an expanding database of all possible scenes categorised according to a huge number of elements and relations) but rather offers an enmeshing within script, data streams and environment. fm01 is a large-scale project which builds on previous ap research and process to push the envelope of what can be achieved in terms of computer languages and data visualisation; a re-thinking of hard-wired notions of input and output.
