Co-creating with AI
The concept of “co-creation” is particularly timely because it reframes the ethics of who creates, how, and why, not only interpreting the world but seeking to change it through a lens of equity and justice. An expansive notion, co-creation embraces a constellation of methods, frameworks, and feedback systems in which projects emerge out of process and evolve from within communities and with people, rather than being made for or about them. Co-cr…
Many Lives of the Batman: Critical Approaches to a Superhero and His Media
Médias récursifs
Cet essai défend l'importance de la récursivité, un processus dans lequel un médiateur à l'agentivité incertaine analyse sélectivement le sujet et façonne l'objet textuel. Les recherches sur Google, les recommandations de Spotify et de Netflix, les flux d'informations sur Facebook et les systèmes de récits émergents sont autant d'exemples de cette rupture algorithmique avec les binarités sujet/texte qui nous sont familières. Étant donné que la lo…
Between Page and Screen: Remaking Literature Through Cinema and Cyberspace
Since the earlier twentieth century, literary genres have traveled across magnetic, wireless, and electronic planes. Literature may now be anything from acoustic poetry and oral performance to verbal–visual constellations in print and on screen, cinematic narratives, or electronic textualities that range from hypertext to Flash. New technologies have left their imprint on literature as a paper-based medium, and vice versa. This volume explores th…
Television’s Next Generation: Technology/ Interface Culture/Flow
A Turn in the Road of Media Studies
Whether in the form of Google searches, interactive games, or responsive textual environments, the reassuring subject-object binary so fundamental to the modern era's representation systems is fast slipping away. In its place, a recursive epistemological order that actively parses the subject and shapes the textual world is fast emerging, posing challenges to established notions of agency and to narrative as a cultural operating system. Assessmen…

After the Break: Television Theory Today
The algorithmic turn: Photosynth, augmented reality and the changing implications of the image
The digital turn, and with it increased use of location-aware technologies, has yielded innovative image applications and posed new questions about the status and value of the image. These applications rely on algorithmically defined relations between the viewing subject and the world viewed, offering robust alternatives to the visual economies of the past. If we take seriously Heidegger's insights regarding the Welt-bild as a metaphor for the mo…
A ‘proper point of view’: The panorama and some of its early media iterations
The panorama entered the world not as a visual format but as a claim: to lure viewers into seeing in a particular way. Robert Barker’s 1787 patent for a 360-degree painting of ‘nature at a glance’ (Nature à Coup d’Oeil) emphasized the construction of a ‘proper point of view’ as a means of making the viewer ‘feel as if really on the spot’. This situating strategy would, over the following centuries, take many forms within the world of the painted …
Contextualizing the Broadcast Era: Nation, Commerce, and Constraint
Programming scarcity that characterized the broadcast era, or what this article refers to as constraint , served very different goals. Often intertwined, these goals ranged from the formation of an ideologically coherent national public, to the protection of economic self-interest, to the explicit promotion of products and messages. They were deployed rather differently in the commercial American and state/public European spaces of television. Th…

Beyond the Great Divide: Collaborative Networks and the Challenge to Dominant Conceptions of Creative Industries
The term ‘creative industries’ has different patterns of deployment. The main fault lines have traditionally appeared between the US, where the marketplace and consumer rule, and much of the rest of the world, where notions of the cultural public sphere and citizenship remain relevant (if under siege). But peer-to-peer (P2P) networks and open source software communities may offer an unexpected challenge to these two constructions. The realignment…
