Recognising our ‘invisible infants’
Globally, there is a lack of adherence to the WHO definition of live birth. This is leading to untenable ethical inconsistencies due to significant variation in which infants are being acknowledged and registered as alive. Being alive should not be a quality that is geographically determined. This paper explores the differing definitions that are used regarding live birth and the ethical and practical implications for infants, their families and …
Barbara Hammer's Jane Brakhage
This essay analyzes Barbara Hammer's 1974 experimental nonfiction film Jane Brakhage.

Most poignantly, perhaps, it is performed live at the late-night celebration held annually in Ibn Al-Farid's honor.[1] Revered as a saint since the generation …
"The Competing Tunes of "Johnny Guitar
Johnny Guitar's allegorical uses of politics and gender are highly contradictory. The film mounts liberal critique of McCarthyism that is undermined by its binary politics, which merely shift blame onto another 1950s bad object: repression in the form of sexually pathological woman.
