Title: Memory and the moving image
Description: "In a vital rethinking of the role of the moving image in cultural memory, Isabelle McNeill investigates the impact of digital technologies on visual culture. Drawing on an interdisciplinary range of theoretical resources and an unusual body of films and moving image works, McNeill examines the ways in which recent French filmmaking conceptualises both the past and the workings of memory. Ultimately McNeill argues that memory is an intersubjective process, in which filmic forms continue to play a crucial role even as new media come to dominate our contemporary experience."--Jacket.
