SUMMARY:ACT Lecture | Jesal Kapadia - Affects and Emotions for a Non-capi
 talist Cinema
DESCRIPTION:What would a cinema that serves its subjects\, rather than fo
 rces of capital\, look like? A cinema of refusal\, a cinematic non-form t
 hat breaks away from the conditions set by capital. A cinema made entirel
 y of the process itself\, that cannot be retained\, that disappears and r
 enews itself when recalled\, that creates an unforgettable loss\, but los
 s with value on the autonomous side.\n\nThe evening involves performing l
 ive annotations and screening of Kapadia's footage shot in Sikkim\, India
 'a dialogue and call-and-response with the activists who went on a yearlo
 ng relay hunger strike. What kinds of subject positions would be needed t
 o create this counter-aesthetic practice\, one that contains the will to 
 keep social justice alive?\n\nJesal Kapadia is an artist\, co-arts editor
  for the journal Rethinking Marxism\, and frequent collaborator with 16be
 aver group in NY. She has recently been appointed Lecturer at ACT.\n\nCon
