>
> Felicity Colman

>
> Technologies such as film and other content situating media provide
> agency for matter, concepts, and ideas to circulate. Media forms are
> active and affective platforms that facilitate, direct, and sustain
> an event - of subjectivity, of the re- and de-territorialization of
> content, form, or place, of some type of ontological commitment to
> knowledge or belief. This talk will discuss how Henri Bergson’s
> address of technology provides an approach useful for the analysis
> of mediatization processes. How are technologies such as film and
> other content situating media able to facilitate and sustain
> qualitative change? The talk will engage documentary film that is
> reliant upon the matter of technology producing content, as produced
> and or staged as the ‘before or after’ the event [of protest /
> revolution / of militarization / of accident or disaster].
