Abstract
Between 1997 and 1999 Jem Cohen made the film/video "Amber City", a portrait of the city of Pisa that is part of a body of works he made in Europe. The article explores the temporal dimension of the work, a layered and non-teleological dimension that defines an alternative cultural strategy with respect to the dominant political-economic and productive system (cf. Estremo, Giordano, Soldani 2024). Above all, the essay explores its media archaeological approach, in relation to the concepts of «deep time» (Zielinski 2006) and «poetics of obsolescence» (Elsaesser 2018).
