<p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif">What
strategies are to be used, from the field of visual arts, in order to
effectively give visibility to the often self-obfuscating processes –
socio-political, economical, cultural, t</span><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif">echnological,
ecological, etc. – that shape contemporary reality? How can the new
possibilities – aesthetic and ontological – offered by digital image be
applied to such aim, as a tool for political agency?</span></p><p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></span></p>
<i>David Ferrando Giraut is an artist/filmmaker based in London. He
is currently a PhD candidate at Goldsmiths College. His work deals with
the interweaving of time and images, of nature and culture; with
transversality and the ruin. He graduated from an MFA in Goldsmiths
College in 2008 and, more recently, took part in the LUX Associate
Artists Programme, London. Among his recent exhibitions and screenings
are: “Veraneantes” MARCO, Vigo (2013); “It´s a Place of Force”, part of
REMAP4, Athens, (2013); MACO 2013, Mexico City; ARCOmadrid 2013;
“Cristalino”, Galería Bacelos, Madrid and Vigo (2012); 41 International
Film Festival Rotterdam (2012); “Swollen Jungle”, Union Gallery, London
(2012); “The Fanstasist”, MACUF, A Coruña (2011).</i><BR>

talk analyses post-cinematic aesthetic strategies such as the
multiplication of perspectives and the manifestation of networked
selves, as well as caricatured styles of speech, movement, and
accelerated montage. Through this analysis Åkervall will show how
post-cinematic video </span><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif">installations
provide an affective cartography of early twenty-first century
experience. The post-cinematic is not exclusively a function of screens
or media, but can rather also be registered in changed relations to
language, (self-)perception, and social relations incontemporary life.
This examination of post-cinematic video installations offers clues for
the </span><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif">description and analysis of the space of networks and flows characteristic of neo-liberal societies of control.</span></p><p style="text-align: left"><br><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><i>Lisa Åkervall
