Introduction - Materiality, Making and Learning

2260 Video practice functions as an interface between theory and lived experience; an opportunity to translate body into memory, sense into language, dream into knowledge. As a media arts scholar and practitioner, I have found that video practice as a methodology for scholarship affords unique opportunities for contemporary interdisciplinary knowledge production. The purpose of this project is to detail the characteristics of this video methodology and to illustrate its development and application through a series of case studies carried out over my time at USC’s School of Cinematic Arts.
