1. Introduction - Materiality, Making and Learning Video practice functions as an interface between theory and lived experience; an opportunity to translate body into memory, sense into language, dream into knowledge. 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. 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.
2. Reading the Virtual Window Medium specificity and materiality are key questions in this exploration of video. Friedberg's project in The Virtual Window is to trace the evolution of the relationships between technologies of representation and the cultural perspectives in which they arise and inform. I made these video records of myself reading the book as a way of visualizing the temporal quality of a book that is simultaneously contained within and erased by the bounded pages. The text exists in a state of simultaneity, but the act of reading unspools and fixes it into a linear experience. Video adds a dimensional layer.
3. I Am Unlimited - the State of Video
4. Follow Focus - Building Camera
5. One More Shot - Selects from 'Egg Retrieval' sequence
