Download or read book Guerrilla Theory written by Matthew Applegate and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The figure of the guerrilla appears in digital humanities' (DH) recent history as an agent of tactical reformation. It refers to various disciplinary desires: a claim to collaborative and inclusive pedagogy, minimal and encrypted computing, and a host of political interventions such as queer politics, critical race studies, and feminist theory. Drawing out the political, ontological, and technological underpinnings of the guerrilla as a figure, this text connects popular iterations of its practice to DH's political rhetoric and infrastructure. By doing so, it reorients DH's conceptual lexicon around practices of collective becoming, mediated by claims to conflict, antagonism, and democratic will. The introduction and chapter one pair a theory-driven analysis of DH's minoritarian interventions alongside contemporary political theory by focusing on Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri's radical democratic ingresses into network theory. These chapters also explore work by thinkers formative of #transformDH like Moya Bailey, Natalia Cecire, and others. Chapters two, three, and four connect post/decolonial, feminist, and Marxist iterations of DH praxis to the aesthetic histories of actually existing guerrilla movements (Latin American Third Cinema, Black Mask's anti-representational politics, and the documentary cinema of the Black Panther Party). All three chapters balance guerrilla history and DH method by exploring their common concepts: critical/politicized acts of making, representational and anti-representational politics, and the production of the common. "Guerilla Theory's" conclusion offers a concept of digital humanities as a form of critical university studies, challenging DH's current political scope, and thus its future institutional impact."--Provided by publisher.
Download or read book Cinematic Guerrillas written by Jie Li and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2023-12-26 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, 2024 Moving Image Book Award, Kraszna-Krausz Foundation How might cinema make revolution and mobilize the masses? In socialist China, the film exhibition network expanded from fewer than six hundred movie theaters to more than a hundred thousand mobile film projectionist teams. Holding screenings in improvised open-air spaces in rural areas lacking electricity, these roving projectionists brought not only films but also power generators, loudspeakers, slideshows, posters, live performances, and mass ritual participation, amplifying the era’s utopian dreams and violent upheavals. Cinematic Guerrillas is a media history of Chinese film exhibition and reception that offers fresh insights into the powers and limits of propaganda. Drawing on a wealth of archives, memoirs, interviews, and ethnographic fieldwork, Jie Li examines the media networks and environments, discourses and practices, experiences and memories of film projectionists and their grassroots audiences from the 1940s to the 1980s. She considers the ideology and practice of “cinematic guerrillas”—at once denoting onscreen militants, off-the-grid movie teams, and unruly moviegoers—bridging Maoist iconography, the experiences of projectionists, and popular participation and resistance. Li reconceptualizes socialist media practices as “revolutionary spirit mediumship” that aimed to turn audiences into congregations, contribute to the Mao cult, convert skeptics of revolutionary miracles, and exorcize class enemies. Cinematic Guerrillas considers cinema’s meanings for revolution and nation building; successive generations of projectionists; workers, peasants, and soldiers; women and ethnic minorities; and national leaders, local cadres, and cultural censors. By reading diverse, vivid, and often surprising accounts of moviegoing, Li excavates Chinese media theories that provide a critical new perspective on world cinema.

Download or read book Breaking the Spell written by Robé, Chris and published by PM Press. This book was released on 2017-05-01 with total page 666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breaking the Spell offers the first full-length study that charts the historical trajectory of anarchist-inflected video activism from the late 1960s to the present. Two predominant trends emerge from this social movement-based video activism: 1) anarchist-inflected processes increasingly structure its production, distribution, and exhibition practices; and 2) video does not simply represent collective actions and events, but also serves as a form of activist practice in and of itself from the moment of recording to its later distribution and exhibition. Video plays an increasingly important role among activists in the growing global resistance against neoliberal capitalism. As various radical theorists have pointed out, subjectivity itself becomes a key terrain of struggle as capitalism increasingly structures and mines it through social media sites, cell phone technology, and new “flexible” work and living patterns. As a result, alternative media production becomes a central location where new collective forms of subjectivity can be created to challenge aspects of neoliberalism. Chris Robé’s book fills in historical gaps by bringing to light unexplored video activist groups like the Cascadia Forest Defenders, eco-video activists from Eugene, Oregon; Mobile Voices, Latino day laborers harnessing cell phone technology to combat racism and police harassment in Los Angeles; and Outta Your Backpack Media, indigenous youth from the Southwest who use video to celebrate their culture and fight against marginalization. This groundbreaking study also deepens our understanding of more well-researched movements like AIDS video activism, Paper Tiger Television, and Indymedia by situating them within a longer history and wider context of radical video activism.
