Exposing the Film Apparatus
Technics
The Key Debates series was launched in 2010 with the aim of revisiting "the central issues that continue to animate thinking about film and audiovisual media," which we have now done across ten volumes.All of these have followed a pattern of reexamining foundational texts and issues, while also investigating new lines of transmission and interpretation.Our book series' dual interest in foundations and novel lines of inquiry is demonstrated by the…
Doing Experimental Media Archaeology
This book offers a plea to take the materiality of media technologies and the sensorial and tacit dimensions of media use into account in the writing of the histories of media and technology. In short, it is a bold attempt to question media history from the perspective of an experimental media archaeology approach. It offers a systematic reflection on the value and function of hands-on experimentation in research and teaching. Doing Experimental …
Viktor Shklovsky’s Ostrannenie and the ‘Hermeneutics of wonder’
In this conversation, Tom Gunning and Annie van den Oever return to Viktor Shklovsky’s notion of ostrannenie (making strange), a neologism coined in what turned out to become a modern art theory that was developed by the young Shklovsky in the midst of the great popularity of film shows in Russia in 1913. Tom Gunning is a film historian and a theorist who wrote a series of foundational texts about early cinema that helped establish the ‘hermeneut…
New Media Archaeologies
Stories
Stories are central to modern media today. Not only narrative entertainment media, such as television, cinema, theater, but also in social media. Telling and having ‘a story’ are widely deemed essential, in advertising and commerce as well as in social life. Does this represent an intensification of what has always been part of culture or has it reached a new universality? The collection Stories identifies new phenomena in the fields of complex n…
Screen Narrative in the Digital Era
the assertion that stories are a major concern for film and media scholars, whether approached in terms of philosophy, aesthetics, narrative theory, cognitive studies, transmedia storytelling and convergence theory, complex narration, historical poetics, metahermeneutics, or the industry's or the practitioner's perspective on storytelling.Throughout this book, there is an emphasis on critical concepts, methods, and debates.Stories deliberately in…
Stories
Stories are perceived as central to modern life. Not only in narrative entertainment media, such as television, cinema, theater, but also in social media. Telling/having "a story" is widely deemed essential, in business as well as in social life. Does this mark an intensification of what has always been part of human cultures; or has the realm of "story" expanded to dominate twenty-first century discourse? Addressing stories is an obvious priorit…
Louis Paul Boon in the New Era of Television in the 1960s
Belgium’s Nobel Prize candidate for Literature, Louis Paul Boon (1912–1979), regularly appeared on prime time television in the early and mid-sixties. His national fame reached a peak in the 1960s and 1970s. His funeral in 1979 was a national event. This article investigates the turn in appreciation for Boon in the 1960s and the impact television has had on it. The approach draws on literary studies as well as television and media studies in that…
Gestures of healing
The Medium-Sensitive Experience and the Paradigmatic Experience of the Grotesque, “Unnatural” or “Monstrous”
To create the conceptual space to analyze the evident and structural similarities between the art experience, the (new) media experience, and the media art experience, the author approaches the “medium” as “techniques” which “make [the seen] strange.” A disruption of the perceptual process, a destabilization of the cognitive routines, a sudden sensitivity to the medium and an instant emotional response are at the heart of these (art) experiences.…
