For over a century motion pictures have entertained us occasionally educated us and even served a few specialized fields of study. Now however with the precipitous drop in prices and increase in image quality motion pictures are as widespread as paperback books and postcards once were. Yet theories and practices of analysis for particular genres and analytical stances definitions concepts and tools that span platforms have been wanting. Therefore we developed a suite of tools to enable close structural analysis of the time-varying signal set of a movie. We take an information-theoretic approach (message is a signal set) generated (coded) under various antecedents (sent over some channel) decoded under some other set of antecedents. Cultural technical and personal antecedents might favor certain message-making systems over others. The same holds true at the recipient end-yet the signal set remains the signal set. In order to discover how movies work-their structure and meaning-we honed ways to provide pixel level analysis forms of clustering and precise descriptions of what parts of a signal influence viewer behavior. We assert that analysis of the signal set across the evolution of film-from Edison to Hollywood to Brakhage to cats on social media-yields a common ontology with instantiations (responses to changes in coding and decoding antecedents).
