Comment (0)Sean Cubitt: Videography: Video Media as Art and Culture (1993)
Filed under book | Tags: · aesthetics, avant-garde, cinema, film, postmodernism, television, third cinema, video, video art
“Videography is an attempt to discover the conditions under which it is possible to speak, write and teach about the electronic media. It provides a materialist account of video and computer media as they are practised and used today. A theoretical section tests the claims of various theses in art history, media and cultural theory to account for the variety of video practice in the contemporary scene. The remainder of the book is devoted to close analysis of work, from amateur video to computer graphics.”
