That his films have been seen so rarely in the UK tells us more about the shortcomings of its repertory cinemas and television than its art institutions, although Raven Row is very proud to have initiated the largest exhibition to date of Farocki's work in this somewhat fugitive context. Having made his first film in 1966, Farocki felt compelled to start making two- screen works 30 years later. These two screens seem more essential than those employed by artists to enliven space and narrative. Farocki places two images side by side so that they can examine and question each other with the richness and openness brought by simultaneity as well as succession. Farocki may be a filmmaker who is more of a visual artist, or perhaps it's the other way round. Someone as good as this who couldn’t be fitted in was likely to become a magnet for a serious fan club. The theorists, artists and critics in this book - some of whom are colleagues, others friends, still others fellow travellers - approach their subjects and formulate their arguments with the passion and purpose of such enthusiasts. Antje Ehmann and Kodwo Eshun have been painstaking editors. They have structured the elements of the book imperceptibly, like film editors. Their montage is based on close collaboration with the book's designer Wiebke Enwaldt. And Harun Farocki himself was always on hand, answering questions without trying to influence the outcome. Thaddaeus Ropac Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac, Salzburg/Paris My colleague Arne Ehmann, Director of Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac in Salzburg, drew my attention to Harun Farocki and his work several years ago. From then on, I repeatedly heard from gallerists, curators and artists who told me he was engaged in a unique form of political work. Farocki does not translate politics into cinematic images; his audiovisual production thinks in images and is therefore a politics of its own. It was not until 2007 that an opportunity to collaborate emerged: at the gallery in Salzburg, Arne Ehmann curated an exhibition with the works Auge/Maschine l-lll (Eye/Machine l-lll, 2000-2003) and Zur Bauweise des Films bei Griffith (On Construction of Griffith’s Films, 2006). The trilogy Eye/Machine deals with war technologies and in this context with pro­ duction technologies as well. These works pick up on the new modes of represent­ ation that image processing enables. Just as Pop Art took up and slightly shifted the image worlds of advertising, Farocki slightly dislocates technological images so that they reveal something other than what they are meant to or want to convey. And just as the Pop artists were enthusiastic about the trivial world of signs, Farocki is taken with the unintentional beauty of machine art, with beauty not intending to have an effect, something which otherwise seems to character­ ise natural phenomena. His work on Griffith's montage technique uses the word 'Bauweise' [construction method] and not 'aesthetics'. Farocki is interested in the methods of narrative order. In his own works, too, methods of construction come to the fore: what emerges is the particular pleasure one experiences when a complex set of facts is elaborated or represented in an informative way. I am delighted to hereby contribute to a comprehensive presentation comment­ ing on and making accessible Harun Farocki's work. In the early summer of this year, many of Harun Farocki's pieces were on view in the exhibition HF/RG. Harun Farocki/Rodney Graham at the Jeu de Paume which I visited several times. I real­ ised that his works can be understood the way they are; that they do not require comments to unfold their effect. Yet they do stimulate comments and explora­ tion; they do lead to new ideas. The book at hand was written in this spirit. On the morning after the opening in Salzburg, I asked Harun Farocki whether he felt comfortable with showing his work at our venue. He said something along the lines of finding it interesting when his work appears in spaces where it is not expected. Of course, our exhibition policy always aims at something that goes beyond expectations. But where would one expect the work of Harun Farocki? It is not bound to a place, it wants to create room for itself, wherever it is placed.

  • Cinema in Dispute: Audiovisual Adventures of the Political Names ‘Worker’, ‘Factory’, ‘People’
    Cinema In Dispute: Audiovisual Adventures of the Political Names ‘Worker’, ‘Factory’, ‘People’ Manuel Ramos Martínez Ph.D. Visual Cultures Goldsmiths College, University of London September 2013 1 I declare that all of the work presented in this thesis is my own. Manuel Ramos Martínez 2 Abstract Political names define the symbolic organisation of what is common and are therefore a potential site of contestation. It is with this field of possibility, and the role the moving image can play within it, that this dissertation is concerned. This thesis verifies that there is a transformative relation between the political name and the cinema. The cinema is an art with the capacity to intervene in the way we see and hear a name. On the other hand, a name operates politically from the moment it agitates a practice, in this case a certain cinema, into organising a better world. This research focuses on the audiovisual dynamism of the names ‘worker’, ‘factory’ and ‘people’ in contemporary cinemas. It is not the purpose of the argument to nostalgically maintain these old revolutionary names, rather to explore their efficacy as names-in-dispute, as names with which a present becomes something disputable. This thesis explores this dispute in the company of theorists and audiovisual artists committed to both emancipatory politics and experimentation. The philosophies of Jacques Rancière and Alain Badiou are of significance for this thesis since they break away from the semiotic model and its symptomatic readings in order to understand the name as a political gesture. Inspired by their affirmative politics, the analysis investigates cinematic practices troubled and stimulated by the names ‘worker’, ‘factory’, ‘people’: the work of Peter Watkins, Wang Bing, Harun Farocki, Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Architecture in the Experience Economy: The Catalog Showroom and Best Products Company A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture by Christina Bernadette Gray 2019 © Copyright by Christina Bernadette Gray 2019 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Architecture in the Experience Economy: The Catalog Showroom and Best Products Company by Christina Bernadette Gray Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture University of California, Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Sylvia Lavin, Chair Although it is often assumed that production must logically precede consumption, the development of postmodern architecture complicates this narrative. The development of postmodern architecture undermined established structures by centralizing the role of consumption and the consumer. This dissertation examines ways in which various conservative trends pushed the consumer closer toward production. These changes ushered in the experience economy of which Best Products Company and the broader catalog showroom phenomena were particularly emblematic. Drawing on these changes within the history of retail architecture, this dissertation sets out to explore how architecture emerged into the postmodern period as a box, a malleable shell that was increasingly being invaded and overturned by a powerful consumer. ii This dissertation of Christina Bernadette Gray is approved.

  • Pop As Translation
    “In Case of Misunderständig, Read On!” Pop as Translation Eckhard Schumacher In an essay with the strange, ostensibly misspelled title “Wort Auf!” Diedrich Diederichsen, one of the most in›uential pop music critics since the early 1980s, relates an anecdote that could be regarded as a prototypical model for the self-guided introduction of German-speak- ing youngsters to a foreign language: When my brother and I were four and six respectively, we met in front of the radio every Sunday to listen to the hit parade, as if it were a revelation, even though, of course, we couldn’t understand a word the Beatles sang. Still, we had to give the songs names, had to get our lips and tongues to form something when we sang them. So a kind of English came into being that had absolutely no meaning whatsoever, or at least, it consisted of a few intelligible words—after all, you learn pretty quickly at that age—and lots of nonsense words. Sometime later, when we started learning English as a totally normal foreign language, we couldn’t get rid of our own version; we could already speak a kind of English, which a second one could never equal. At some point, I could translate a Dylan song, but I already knew it by heart and enjoyed the linguistic effects, which I loaded with half-knowledge, paranoid interpretation, and desire.1 Diederichsen’s anecdote precisely points out “the great advantage and the great peculiarity”2 Germans experience when they hear Anglo- American pop music and its lyrics.

  • Amazon, E-Commerce, and the New Brand World
    AMAZON, E-COMMERCE, AND THE NEW BRAND WORLD by JESSE D’AGOSTINO A THESIS Presented to the Department of Business Administration and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2018 An Abstract of the Thesis of Jesse D’Agostino for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Business to be taken June 2018 Amazon, E-commerce, and the New Brand World Approved: _______________________________________ Lynn Kahle This thesis evaluates the impact of e-commerce on brands by analyzing Amazon, the largest e-commerce company in the world. Amazon’s success is dependent on the existence of the brands it carries, yet its business model does not support its longevity. This research covers the history of retail and a description of e-commerce in order to provide a comprehensive understanding of our current retail landscape. The history of Amazon as well as three business analyses, a PESTEL analysis, a Porter’s Five Forces analysis, and a SWOT analysis, are included to establish a cognizance of Amazon as a company. With this knowledge, several aspects of Amazon’s business model are illustrated as potential brand diluting forces. However, an examination of these forces revealed that there are positive effects of each of them as well. The two sided nature of these factors is coined as Amazon’s Collective Intent. After this designation, the Brand Matrix, a business tool, was created in order to mitigate Amazon’s negative influence on both brands and its future. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank Professor Lynn Kahle, my primary thesis advisor, for guiding me through this process, encouraging me to question the accepted and giving me the confidence to know that I would find my stride over time.

  • Innovation in Retailing Explaining Trends of Retail Change by Theory
    Innovation in retailing Explaining trends of retail change by theory “Innovation is consistently found to be the most important characteristic associated with success” Amy Kerssens 12/15/2017 Innovation in retailing | 2017 Title: Innovation in retailing, explaining trends of retail change by theory Thesis supervisor: Jacques Trienekens Institution: Wageningen University and Research Department: Management Studies Group (MST) Author: Amy Kerssens Registration number: 950808429090 Study: Bachelor Management and Consumer Studies, Major in Business Date: 15-12-2017 Place: Wageningen 1 Innovation in retailing | 2017 Preface This thesis is part of my bachelor Management and Consumer Studies of Wageningen University & Research. I could opt for one of the chair groups that fall under this bachelor and my choice fell on the Management Studies Group. Its focus on innovation aroused my interest and in Jacques Trienekens I found a matching supervisor. I wanted to write my bachelor thesis about something that was notable for me and that I could conceive for myself. The retail industry, and specifically the business to consumer, already had my interest because that is where business and consumer come together; the pivot of my bachelor Management and Consumer Studies. The combination of the two is what I would write about: innovation in retailing. By writing this thesis I have gained new knowledge and insights. During writing I experienced highs and lows, enthusiasm and even desperation, but finally relief and excitement. I want to thank especially Jacques Trienekens for advising me, pushing me into the right direction and make me order and rethink my thoughts and ideas. Abstract The retail industry is characterized as being dynamic and especially recently the ‘rules of the game’ for retailers seem to have changed.
