Description

Videographic criticism refers to the audiovisual analysis of audiovisual material and screen media, often in the form of video essays. As a medium of academic practice, videographic criticism has exploded in recent years. It is produced in a range of modes from the illustrated lecture to something closer to video art, but scholars and practitioners disagree about the ‘proper’ form that videographic criticism should take in order to qualify as scholarly practice. This project intervenes in this debate to set out the poetics of videographic criticism: the principles that underpin its making and that should guide its development. In particular, it will investigate how constraint-based ('parametric') approaches to videographic criticism may constitute a posthuman mode of knowing, emerging with and from the assemblage of hardware, parametric system, software, and organism.
