When Susan Sontag first proposed the idea of an "ecology of images," she meant it as an exhortation to be vigilant against the vast surplus of pictures threatening our ability to truly see. Today, beyond the deep anxieties over a diminishing attention economy, concern focuses on the environmental cost of storing and circulating the digital images that confront us with unprecedented speed. Against the disposable rapidity demanded by digital media, Peter Szendy emphasizes the labor and time required for images to develop and come into view. This inquisitive essay takes us from mimicry in the animal kingdom to the history of the shadow, Pliny’s story about the birth of painting to Nabokov’s butterflies, the first use of slo-mo in film to the first aerial photograph. Praise for Peter Szendy: "From book to book, Peter Szendy is in the process of constructing one of the most singular philosophical oeuvres of our time." - Laurent de Sutter, Focus vif "A writer of exquisite sensitivity and wit, as well as of impeccable clarity." - Gil Anidjar, Columbia University

What is this beetle that symbolized the sun for the Egyptians? Who is the Maoris' "god of ugly things?? How did Darwin predict the existence of a butterfly without ever having seen one? The diversity and sheer global number of insects influences the balance of terrestrial natural environments.

It is an open secret that the hardware in our smart devices contains plastics and raw materials mined from conflict regions. Can we move beyond this oppressive system of extraction to find ethical alternatives? Feminist hackers Patrícia Reis and Stefanie Wuschitz&nbsp;discuss developing technology through eco-feminist artistic tools, rooted in care economies, local knowledges and collective survival. Through an intensive knowledge-sharing process and collaboration with peers, they unpack eco-feminist theory and practices to propose resistance strategies grounded in ethical hardware and de-growth economies - contributing significantly to the new field of arts-based research.

"Excuse me, are you two a couple?" From the creators of @meetcutesnyc, this stunning new book—beautifully photographed and written—captures true stories of love and connection as told on the streets of NYC.&nbsp; Meet Cutes NYC is a breathtaking collection of 85 stories—a mix of new and fan favorites—alongside beautiful portraits of the couples, photographed exclusively for the book. Each interview opens the same way, “Excuse me, are you two a couple?” Followed by, “Can you tell us the story of how you met?” But the stories are each unique—like Chris and Clay, who met while auditioning for West Side Story (they both got it). And Joe and Liza, who met in a hardware store—while Liza was with her boyfriend at the time. There are stories of couples who met on public transportation, at a party, through friends, at work, at church—you truly never know where you might find love. There are also stories of second chances—like Mike and Karen—who met in college, broke up, and then bumped into each other again two years later; they fell into a kiss and have been married for 37 years. Beyond how they met, couples share their partner’s favorite traits, what they love to do together, and how they make their relationships work. Meet Cutes NYC is a celebration of modern-day love connections—across all ages, genders, and backgrounds. &nbsp; The book is a refreshing dose of real love stories, from real people, in a gorgeous package.&nbsp;

An expanded chronology charting Todd Hido's career, with thirty never-before-seen works. Well known for his photography of landscapes and suburban housing, and for his use of detail and luminous color, acclaimed American photographer Todd Hido casts a distinctly cinematic eye across all that he photographs, digging deep into his memory and imagination for inspiration. Newly revised and expanded, Intimate Distance: Over Thirty Years of Photographs, A Chronological Album includes ten years of new work since the book's first publication, including breathtaking new images from his travels to Iceland, Norway, and Japan, where he brings both a familiar eye and an expansive new vision. Though Hido has published many smaller monographs of individual bodies of work, this gathers his most iconic images, along with many unpublished works to provide the most complete and comprehensive monograph charting his career. The book is organized chronologically, showing how his series overlap in exciting ways. David Campany introduces the work and looks at the kind of cinematic spectatorship the work demands. And Katya Tylevich muses on the making of each of Hido's major monographs, "The photographs lead as far as human-made roads go. They reach the periphery of utility wires, footprints, and paths already taken." From exterior to interior, surface observations to subconscious investigations, from landscapes to nudes, from America and beyond, this midcareer collection reveals how his unique focus has developed and shifted over time, yet the tension between distance and intimacy remains.

Over Thirty Years of Photographs, A Chronological Album

Todd Hido: Intimate Distance (Revised and Expanded Edition)

This intimate photo chronicle by Polly Samson documents both the recording of David Gilmour's No. 1 album Luck and Strange and the acclaimed tour which saw the Pink Floyd legend playing sellout shows in Rome, London, LA and New York. Samson, who is Gilmour's partner and creative collaborator, as well as an acclaimed novelist / photographer in her own right, captures the process as the album takes shape: from conception and recording, off-duty and studio immersion, to release and live performance; from candid behind-the-scenes shots, to theatrical stage moments. We see an artist at work, the collaborative process, the moments of light relief - and the focus as the work takes flight. The book features the unmistakable hand lettering of Anton Corbijn on the cover and throughout, plus an interview by rock photographer Jill Furmanovsky with Polly Samson that sheds light on a photographer's craft, as well as providing insights into Samson's relationship with Gilmour. The foreword is written by the late Alan Yentob.

ZfM - Zeitschrift für Medienwissenschaft

Die Zeitschrift für Medienwissenschaft steht für eine kulturwissenschaftlich orientierte Medienwissenschaft, die Untersuchungen zu Einzelmedien aufgreift und durchquert, um nach politischen Kräften und epistemischen Konstellationen zu fragen. Sie stellt Verbindungen zu internationaler Forschung ebenso her wie zu verschiedenen Disziplinen und bringt unterschiedliche Schreibweisen und Textformate, Bilder und Gespräche zusammen, um der Vielfalt, mit der geschrieben, nachgedacht und experimentiert werden kann, Raum zu geben.
Nicht erst seit den Debatten über cultural appropriation ist Aneignung ein wiederkehrendes und wichtiges Thema der Medienwissenschaft. Hatten die Cultural Studies die aktive Rezeption als Form der Aneignung aufgefasst, so hat sich mit den digitalen Partizipationskulturen das Versprechen der User*innen-Ermächtigung auf das ¿Prosumieren¿ verlagert. Der Schwerpunkt schlägt vor, am Beispiel von Meme-Kulturen die Potentiale und Probleme von Aneignung neu zu überdenken und dabei die Kritik an kultureller Aneignung, aber auch Ideen zum digitalen commoning aufzugreifen: Wann kann Aneignung widerständig oder solidarisch sein, und in welchen Fällen reproduziert sie herrschende Besitz- und Machtverhältnisse?
