Overview
This research project investigates the video essay as a digital media format for producing, advancing, and sharing knowledge in audiovisual forms that enable critical reflections on media processes in the 21st century. The video essays radical potentials are explored accross three major axes:
- the formation, sharing, and negotiation of memories in contemporary videographic practices – as shared histories, individual accounts, archival appropriations, and (media-)cultural artifacts
- the ecologies in and through which video essays are produced and circulate
- the bodies that inhabit, perform, and present videographic research and that link memories and ecologies through these acts.
