  • From Family Albums to Global Search Engines: Translating Family Photographs for the Digital Age
    FROM FAMILY ALBUMS TO GLOBAL SEARCH ENGINES: TRANSLATING FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHS FOR THE DIGITAL AGE By Sophie Johnson A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Media Studies Victoria University of Wellington 2012 i CONTENTS ABSTRACT iii LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS v INTRODUCTION 1 CHAPTER ONE THE DISCOURSE OF THE MATERIAL FAMILY ALBUM 13 CHAPTER TWO MAKING THE DISCOURSE VISIBLE: DIGITAL PHOTO-SHARING PLATFORMS, REMEDIATION AND MEDIATIZATION 40 CHAPTER THREE ACCESS TO THE FAMILY ALBUM: SOCIAL RESTRICTIONS AND PRIVACY IN PUBLIC SPACES 71 CHAPTER FOUR COMMODIFICATION OF THE PERSONAL: THE FAMILY ALBUM AND COMMERCE 99 CONCLUSION 122 WORKS CITED 125 ii ABSTRACT This thesis examines the ways digital photo-sharing platforms adopt, use and challenge the discourse of the material family album as a way of demonstrating the uses for new media within the private sphere. It analyses the digital photo-sharing platforms of Picasa and Shutterfly, platforms which often take contrasting approaches to negotiating the relationship between material and digital cultures. By examining these platforms in terms of the way they reference and use the discourse of the material family album, the ways they allow content to be used and accessed, and their relationship to commercial culture, this thesis explores how these platforms use the discourse to transform the way the family and the family album interact with one another, and with geography, time and commercial culture. It argues that the discourse of the material family album is translated by digital photo-sharing platforms in order to ensure the family participates in the digital sphere, drawing more of human communication into the online space where it can be mediatized, observed, and commodified.

  • Houses As Sites of Memory in Penelope Lively's Writings
    CROSSROADS. A Journal of English Studies Bożena Kucała 10.15290/cr.2016.14.3.01 Jagiellonian University, Kraków Houses as sites of memory in Penelope Lively’s writings Abstract. This paper will analyse the representation of houses in selected novels and non-fiction by Penelope Lively. Houses feature in her writings as material objects as well as immaterial forms created by the human psyche; they may also be conceptualised as organic beings whose lives mirror the lives of their inhabitants. However, it will be argued that for the characters in Lively’s novels houses function primarily as sites of memory. Houses are treated as repositories of the past, both because they hold secure its material remnants and because they have the potential to evoke memories and thus enable people to forge and maintain meaningful connections with the past. The article will also take account of Lively’s three autobiographical books, Oleander, Jacaranda: A Childhood Perceived, A House Unlocked, and Ammonites and Leaping Fish, in which the writer embarks on the project of retrieving memories by exploring, respectively, three houses she used to reside in as “material memoirs” of her own past as well as collective history. Keywords: Penelope Lively, memory, autobiography, the house in fiction, sites of memory. In their essay on representations of the house in literature and culture, Janet Larson, Francesca Saggini and Anna-Enrichetta Soccio emphasise the inescapable duality inherent in this type of dwelling. On the one hand, it is a material object, a “thing made of bricks and mortar, poured con- crete, cinder block, fieldstone, fitted logs or baked mud.” Owing to its substantiality, the house se- cures the inside against the outside, separates the private space from the public space, and offers its inhabitants “a sense of stability against the ravages of time.” On the other hand, the space enclosed by the walls of the house also becomes a mental construct, endowed with subjective, personal con- notations (1-2).

In contrast to the conven- tional forms of film adaptation, I interpret literature emotionally and selec- tively, in order to produce an ambiguous form of self-portraiture. I therefore allow the text to function as a mediating tool, for the recollection of difficult, yet universal experiences, such as illness, loss and separation. As both artist and subject, my interdisciplinary, self-reflexive practice is concerned with the staging of the self as a subjective performance, operating within a con- fessional mode. This alternative method is firmly positioned within a fine art context, and aims to adopt a therapeutic stance, utilizing adaptation as autobiography, re- alised through a re-scripting process of fragmentary extraction, based upon personal identification.

L’Année du lièvre also addresses the initial hearings against Khmer Rouge leaders in the 2009 Tribunal, and preserves family memories from pre-1975 Cambodia, and his family’s resettlement in France in 1980 in the form of hand-drawn photographs and photo albums.

A THING AMONG THINGS by KELLI SHEA COUCH Under the Direction of Constance Thalken, MFA ABSTRACT A thing among things is an endless pursuit to expand the definition of home and find resolve during life’s circumstances. I constantly search for meaning within myself, my family, and our surroundings because one of my greatest fears is to live a purposeless life. Initially, I was allured by the false sense of control that photography provides as I guided individuals, directed scenes, and selected the framing. However, I realize that the medium has the potential to reveal accidental truths within the fantasies I create. The photographs are constructed and spontaneous. The stage is predetermined but any narrative can unfold. I’m obsessed with unplanned moments that allow me to see through the guilt and condemnation and feel at peace with who I am and never fully knowing what I’ll be.
