SUMMARY:ACT Lecture | Krista Lynes - Creative Geographies: Video Beyond t
 he Global Village
DESCRIPTION:In his critical analysis of postmodern culture\, Fredric Jame
 son asserted that the particular temporality of video\, its "total flow\,
 " bound apparatus and subject in a new kind of materialism governed by me
 asurement\, a machinic time closer to the chronometer than the cinema. Th
 is produced a "kaleidoscopic" image of distinct streams whose historicism
  was revealed by the very organization of videographic space and time. Pr
 ofessor Lynes's talk will extend Jameson's insights to questions of repre
 sentation and cultural production under the current crises and failures o
 f market structures in the 21st century\, and the (speculative\, generati
 ve) co-incidences between protest movements around the globe\, focusing s
 pecifically on artworks that juxtapose chronometric and cinematic time.\n
 \nKrista Lynes' writing has been included in the journals Signs and Third
  Text\, as well as the anthology Space (Re)Solutions: Intervention and Re
 search in Visual Culture (2011). Her book\, Prismatic Media\, Transnation
 al Circuits: Feminism in a Globalized Present\, is forthcoming in Palgrav
 e Macmillan's "Global Cinema" series in 2013.\n\nContact Information: \nL
