“Speculative Ecologies of (Post)Cinema” talk

May 5, 2015 by Adrian J Ivakhiv

The video of my talk on “Speculative Ecologies of (Post)Cinema: Cinema In and Beyond the Capitalocene,” is now up on Vimeo and at Shane Denson’s web site. It is from the SCMS panel “Post-Cinema and/as Speculative Media Theory,” featuring Steven Shaviro, Patricia Pisters, and Mark Hansen.

I discuss the archive, the cloud, the common, the slippery morphing image (of digital cinema), the Anthropocene and Capitalocene, and the unrepresentability of ecological collapse…

A different version of this talk will come out later this year (open access) in the volume on “Post-Cinema: Theorizing 21st Century Film” that Shane and Julia Leyda are co-editing for ReFrame Books. The other talks are viewable here.
