The Changing Face of Alterity | David J. Gunkel, Ciro Marcondes Filho, Dieter Mersch (Hg.) [E-Book PDF]
The figure of the ‹other› is fundamental to the concept of communication. Online or offline, communication, which is commonly defined as the act of sending or imparting information to others, is only possible in the face of others. In fact, the reason we communicate is to interact with others—to talk to another, to share our thoughts and insights with them, or to respond to their needs and requests. No matter how it is structured or conceptualized, communication is involved with addressing the other and dealing with the ontological, epistemological, and ethical questions of otherness or alterity. But who or what can be other? Who or what can be the subject of communication? Is the other always and only another human? Or can the other in these communicative interactions be otherwise? This book is about others (and other kinds of others). It concerns the current position and status of the other in the face of technological innovations that can, in one way or another distort, mask, or even deface the other. Ten innovative essays, written by an international team of experts, individually and in collaboration with each other, seek to diagnose the current situation with otherness, devise innovative solutions to the questions of alterity, and provide insight for students, teachers and researchers trying to make sense of the opportunities and challenges of the 21st century.

Aisthetik der Müdigkeit | Fabian Goppelsröder
CHF 25.00In einer Zeit, in der Aktivität und Leistung alles bedeuten, da power naps und polyphasischer Schlaf die Nachtruhe optimieren sollen, Klartraumtechniken Ressourcen zur Verbesserung körperlicher und geistiger Effizienz kolonisieren, lässt sich – so scheint es – für die Müdigkeit kaum noch argumentieren. Das Sensorium für ihre Fülle ist durch all den Optimierungsdruck verkümmert. Der Imperativ des 24/7 hat es anästhesiert. Dabei geht es heute, so der Ansatz des vorliegenden Buches, mehr denn je darum, ihre besondere Aisthetik wiederzuentdecken, den Sinn für die ihr eigenen Zwischenzustände des Ungeformten und Nichtkategorisierbaren zu wecken.

Bild. Ein interdisziplinäres Handbuch | Stephan Günzel, Dieter Mersch (Hg.)
CHF 41.50Vom Tafelbild über den Film bis zum 3D-Bild. Bilder überfluten uns in allen Bereichen der Gesellschaft, der Umgang mit digitalen Bildern wird immer wichtiger. Seit dem Pictorial oder Iconic Turn haben sich auch die Kulturwissenschaften des Themas angenommen und eine Wissenschaft vom Bild und der Bildwahrnehmung begründet. Das Handbuch gibt erstmals einen umfassenden Überblick, erläutert Grundlagen wie Semiotik, Phänomenologie und Ikonologie, analysiert verschiedene Einzelmedien und sich anschließende Bilddiskurse. Ein abschließender Teil beleuchtet die Bildtheorien verschiedener Disziplinen, und wie sich diese als Bildwissenschaft verstehen.

Sinnliches Denken. Eisensteins exzentrische Methode | Elena Vogman
CHF 45.00Sergej Eisensteins Bildtheorie und Filmpraxis sind aufs Engste miteinander verbunden. Aus beidem entwickelte er ein Theoriewerk: ein immer wieder neu montiertes work in progress, dessen epistemische Obsession im physiologischen Denkpotential des Kinos selbst gründete. Auf der Suche nach den Ursprüngen eines solchen »sinnlichen Denkens« des Kinos legte Eisenstein die Kulturgeschichte neu aus. 1929 plante der Regisseur ein »Buch in Form einer Kugel«.
