ISBN: 9780520241299 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Emphasizing our corporeal rather than our intellectual engagements with film and other media, Carnal Thoughts shows how our experience always emerges through our senses and how our bodies are not just visible objects but also sense-making, visual subjects.

She examines how, through the conflation of...

Meta-Morphing: Visual Transformation and the Culture of Quick-Change
ISBN: 9780816633197 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Two thousand years ago, Ovid asked his readers to imagine metamorphoses in which men and women became flowers and beasts. Today, before our cinema-savvy eyes, people melt and re-form as altogether new creatures: they "morph." This volume explores what digital morphing means -- both as a cultural practice specific to our times and as a link to a much broader history of images of human transformation.
Meta-Morphing ranges over topics that include turn-of-the-century "quick-change" artists, Mesoamerican shamanic transformation, and cosmetic surgery; recent works such as Terminator 2, Star...
