Backdating the Crip Technoscience Manifesto
This essay considers experimental filmmaker Stephen Dwoskin’s work as a lifelong process of technological activism and “knowing-making.” Using recent frameworks from Critical Disability Studies, Chamarette demonstrates how Dwoskin’s decades of activism parallel and in some cases pre-date the evolution of Disability Studies as it is currently situated. As an early adopter of digital and ‘cusp-of digital’ technologies (Hi-8 cameras, Mini-DV tapes, …
Dwoskin
In this article, I argue that looking and staring, which are typical aspects of Stephen Dwoskin's experimental, highly personal approach to cinema, contribute to a broader sensory inquiry into conditions of diasporic and disabled (gender) dysphoria. I explore the intersecting relationships between these four "d's"—Dwoskin, disability, diaspora, and dysphoria—understanding how in recent years the fields of transgender (trans) studies, diaspora stu…
A long meandering slide
Stephen Dwoskin was a prolific experimental filmmaker from the mid-1960s until his death in 2012. Commonly associated with the New York underground film scene and the London Filmmakers' Co-Op, which he co-founded in 1966, Jewish-American Dwoskin was also a childhood survivor of polio and a disability rights activist. Though an enduring oral legacy of feminist criticism of Dwoskin's work remains since the 1980s, Dwoskin's later work from the 1990s…

Embodied Worlds and Situated Bodies
This article provides an overview of the emerging field of film phenomenology. It argues that the field is a different “scratching of the philosophical itch” that is created by an interrogation of film’s relationship to embodied and situated experience. Film phenomenology is not a movement as such, and yet in the past decade, a wave of scholarship, often written by female scholars and often feminist, has emerged in this field, and in the associat…
Absurd Avatars, Transcultural Relations
This article illuminates the threads of connection drawing together the work of the Palestinian filmmaker Elia Suleiman and French cultural production, while acknowledging the broader international contexts of these connections. The transcultural relations identified in the article title are a means of articulating these concerns. Suleiman's films, funded by French production companies and supported by French film festivals, have a tacit connecti…
The Disappearing Work
In this article I argue that thresholds of attention or distraction provoke a phenomenological engagement with the ephemerality of moving image installations. Thus, patterns of spectatorial attention and distraction offer a potential methodology to examine ephemeral installations which exist for a limited duration, in particular in exhibition spaces. The article probes a range of conceptualizations of attention with relation to contemporary pheno…
Guilt and Shame
As theoretical positions and as affective experiences, the twin currents of contrition – guilt and shame – permeate literary discourse and figure prominently in discussions of ethics, history, sexuality and social hierarchy. This collection of essays, on French and francophone prose, poetry, drama, visual art, cinema and thought, assesses guilt and shame in relation to structures of social morality, language and self-expression, the thinking of t…
Flesh, Folds and Texturality
Certain forms of art privilege the ellipsis. For example, in poetry, one has only to think of Mallarmé's Un Coup de dés for ellipsis to mark its peculiar trace upon the processes of meaning. Nonetheless, because ellipsis situates itself so curiously between meaning and signification, a formal definition may seem too categorical in explaining what ellipsis can do in its between-state, flanked by visuality, semiotics and signification. This article…
