  • Images 2021 CEU SYLLABUS 11Weeks.Pdf
    Syllabus “IMAGES: KNOWLEDGE, HISTORY, POLITICS” Instructor: Ulrich Meurer, [email protected] | Visual Theory & Practice | Core course | Credits: 2.0 | Winter 2020/21 Zoom-link: https://ceu-edu.zoom.us/j/97544043324?pwd=eVV5d3VGSHlQZkZMdTJvYkNhVTJ5UT09 Meeting-ID: 975 4404 3324 / Passcode: 648382 Link for registering for in-class presentation: https://doodle.com/poll/35a6zk5yfsvpdmm8 COURSE DESCRIPTION: “It is a commonplace of modern cultural criticism” – states W. J. T. Mitchell – “that images have a power in our world undreamed of by the ancient idolaters.” In fact, the sheer multitude, sensory demand, and increasing impact of images are at the very core of current notions of culture and the visual; they inform the theoretical understanding of the present (as well as its relation to the past), the social & political significance of media, or the epistemological potential of imaging technologies. Against this background, the course addresses the image both as a representational sign that depicts a physical/mental “reality” and as an experience, operation or visual event in its own right. After a concise introduction that addresses the ‘truth-content’ and ‘operative value’ of images, the course will focus on the use of photography, film, and electronic media in three selected fields: through a series of case studies, it analyzes the capacity of modern “techno-images” for the production of (scientific) knowledge; their ability to display, translate or reconstruct the past, e.g. as historical source material, and finally, their entanglement with political representations of power and equality. While the first section covers theoretical reflections from Plato to the present, the subsequent examples from a limited set of discourses will, however, constantly return to basic issues of pictorial signification and of the visual as “informational excess”.

  • Loki Production Brief
    PRODUCTION BRIEF “I am Loki, and I am burdened with glorious purpose.” —Loki arvel Studios’ “Loki,” an original live-action series created exclusively for Disney+, features the mercurial God of Mischief as he steps out of his brother’s shadow. The series, described as a crime-thriller meets epic-adventure, takes place after the events Mof “Avengers: Endgame.” “‘Loki’ is intriguingly different with a bold creative swing,” says Kevin Feige, President, Marvel Studios and Chief Creative Officer, Marvel. “This series breaks new ground for the Marvel Cinematic Universe before it, and lays the groundwork for things to come.” The starting point of the series is the moment in “Avengers: Endgame” when the 2012 Loki takes the Tesseract—from there Loki lands in the hands of the Time Variance Authority (TVA), which is outside of the timeline, concurrent to the current day Marvel Cinematic Universe. In his cross-timeline journey, Loki finds himself a fish out of water as he tries to navigate—and manipulate—his way through the bureaucratic nightmare that is the Time Variance Authority and its by-the-numbers mentality. This is Loki as you have never seen him. Stripped of his self- proclaimed majesty but with his ego still intact, Loki faces consequences he never thought could happen to such a supreme being as himself. In that, there is a lot of humor as he is taken down a few pegs and struggles to find his footing in the unforgiving bureaucracy of the Time Variance Authority. As the series progresses, we see different sides of Loki as he is drawn into helping to solve a serious crime with an agent 1 of the TVA, Mobius, who needs his “unique Loki perspective” to locate the culprits and mend the timeline.

  • 1 She's Been Away
    She’s Been Away: Ageing, Madness and Memory Sherryl Wilson Television is a popular medium that, despite its cultural centrality and significance, is rarely taken seriously. The reasons for this are many but include elitist attitudes to “mainstream tastes” and because, despite the ubiquity of screens outside of the home, it is still regarded as a domestic (and therefore feminine) medium. The general disparagement of television ignores the (many) instances of political interventions that are made across a range of genres. In this paper, I focus on a single TV drama that challenges dominant paradigms of both ageing and madness which has, therefore, the potential to intervene in social consciousness and the formation of social memory. She’s Been Away (BBC 1,1989) was written by Stephen Poliakoff, directed by Peter Hall and broadcast as a part of the BBC’s Screen One (1989-1997) series. The play of memory in She’s een Away reverberates with the cultural fear of ageing coupled with that other unthinkable, mental illness. In the years since She’s Been Away was first broadcast we have witnessed a proliferation of images of older people (especially women) across a range of media and genres, but rather than presenting us with new ways of thinking about age and ageing, representations cohere to a series of somewhat retrogressive images. (There is a debate to be had about the ways in which men as well as women are represented as equally narrow/reductive constructions, but for the sake of consistency with my case study, I want to focus on women here.) The contemporary figures are familiar to us: the woman who has aged “successfully”, she who is young-looking, full of youthful vigour and conventionally attractive; all traces of life experience are erased.
