Identifying Barriers and Facilitators to Accessing Care for Historically Marginalized Communities Affected by Parkinson Disease: A Qualitative Study
Politics of indeterminacy: Utopia and crisis in the essay film
The essay film, currently subject to significant critical attention, is championed as an unorthodox and utopian mode of audiovisual thinking. This article argues that such characteristics express a broader political principle of indeterminacy. In Laura Rascaroli’s recent examination of ‘how the essay film thinks’, the twentieth-century development of this principle can be traced to a strange brew of Adorno and Deleuze, where the essay film’s inde…
In Defence of 'Noir Theory: Laruelle, Deleuze, and Other Detectives
What happens when theory falters? A concern with the anthropocentric limitations of critical thought dominates contemporary cultural theory. For Joanna Zylinska, however, this concern often reflects a longstanding humanist anxiety, one that is today renewed in the form of 'noir theory', a reactionary scholarship that redeems the universalist human as the subject of reason. There is, though, more than one mode of noir theory, and a certain tendenc…
Cultural Infrastructure
On the face of it, there is something uniquely contemporary about the practices and procedures of listing. The present era might be variously characterized according to the ‘kill lists’ of drone warfare, the instructional lists of computational algorithms, the cultural rankings of the ‘best of’ list, or the ubiquitous clickbait ‘listicle’ that vies for our attention. Indeed it would seem that the politics and aesthetics of digital culture can be …
Destabilized Perception
The formerly dissident status of the essay film has, in recent years, been exchanged for a great deal of favorable attention both inside and outside academia. In the more overly moralistic commentary on the form, the contemporary essay film is submitted as a tactical response to a surfeit of audiovisual media, to an era in which most of us have become both consumers and producers of a digital deluge. The work of Adam Curtis is notably absent from…
Vector portraits, or, photography for the Anthropocene
The Anthropocene, a concept to describe the planetary consequences of human culture, demands that we imagine the earth itself as an image-recording medium. It is a concept that confronts the entangled histories of industrialization and abstraction, revealing the thoroughly mediated circumstances from which perceptions of 'nature' emerge. This article considers an accelerated form of abstraction induced by technological capitalism, a form with tho…
