Expanded Visions: A New Anthropology of the Moving Image

Autor Arnd Schneider
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 iun 2021
This book argues for a new anthropology of the moving image, bringing together an important range of essays on time-based media in the contemporary arts and anthropology.
It builds on recent attempts to develop more experimental formats and engages with debates on epistemologies of ethnography, relational aesthetics, materiality, sensory ethnography, and observational and participatory cinema. Arnd Schneider critically revisits Baudrillard’s idea of the simulacrum and the hyperreal, engages with new media theory, and elaborates on the potential of the Writing Culture critique for moving image practices bordering art and anthropology.
This collection of essays is essential reading for anybody working across the fields of visual anthropology, film and media studies and visual studies. Schneider ambitiously considers the complex relationship between the moving image and anthropology, highlighting the potential for innovative approaches, experimental methods, and expanded perspectives in both fields.

Recenzii

"This is the latest in the series of indispensable volumes that Arnd Schneider has edited (or co-edited) tracing developments in the field of art and anthropology, and here, in the growing affordances, beyond the influence of critical film theory or existing experiments in observational film, for absorbing more difficult contemporary work into the continuing signature commitment of anthropologists to ethnography. As ever, Schneider has been judicious and acute in his work, showing, rather than telling, the stakes of further venues of experiment in an already lively visual anthropology." - George E. Marcus, Director, Center for Ethnography, University of California, Irvine, USA.
 "Expanded Visions is a new chapter in Arnd Schneider’s decades-long commitment to scrutinising the intersection of anthropology and the visual arts – gesturing towards the radical possibilities of experimentation in audiovisual research. It is an astute plea for multimodal and artistic inquiry. […] In short, it’s a welcome and eloquent contribution to research on the intersection of anthropology and the arts." - Sander Hölsgens, LSE Review of Books
"Through its wide-ranging case studies, this book serves as a valuable inquiry into how typically non-anthropological modes of filmmaking can both question and amplify the contents and forms of conventional anthropological research and practice." - Alyssa Grossman, Visual Anthropology 
"Expanded Visions: A New Anthropology of the Moving Image argues that film can be a powerful tool for cultural representation, providing a new lens for anthropological research and enabling a more nuanced, empathetic, and inclusive form of representation. (It) also highlights the importance of experimentation and rethinking traditional methods of representation, particularly in the context of decolonization and post-colonial studies." Steve Rickinson, Modern Times Review
"Expanded Visions is a worthwhile overview of media works that have emerged out this confluence of anthropology and experimental media. The examples are both selective and important to the case set out by Schneider in that we uncover a substantial set of complex issues and media art practices originated in the space where anthropology and experimental cinema intersect." - Hart Cohen, Global Media Journal – Australian Edition
"Per l’ampiezza di prospettive, la lettura trasversale, la complessità sa-pientemente orchestrata delle questioni teoriche e metodologiche, il libro di Schneider è un limpido contributo al dibattito interno agli studi visivi e si pone, al contempo, come ricapitolazione di una certa parte del discorso antro-pologico degli ultimi decenni e come stimolante “manifesto” di ripensamento delle forme e delle categorie della ricerca sul campo." - Valentina Lusini, ANUAC
