Parallax Historiography: the Flâneuse As Cyberfeminist Catherine Russell, Concordia University, Canada
Parallax Historiography: The Flâneuse as Cyberfeminist Catherine Russell, Concordia University, Canada "Cyborg imagery can suggest a way out of the maze of dualisms in which we have explained our bodies and our tools to ourselves. This is a dream not of a common language, but of a powerful infidel heteroglossia." Donna Haraway Haraway's cyborg manifesto may seem an odd choice of theoretical paradigms for developing insight into silent cinema; and yet I would like to suggest that new media technologies have created new theoretical "passages" back to the first decades of film history. The flâneuse, an imaginary construction of female subjectivity who is our guide in this journey, is herself a cyborg. She figures the relationship between women and technology as a mobile, fluid and productive means of, in Haraway's words, "building and destroying machines, identities, categories, relationships, spaces, stories" (1997: 482). Recent developments in film historiography by feminist theorists have shifted the emphasis from textual analysis of the woman onscreen to the invisible history of the spectator-subject. As Patrice Petro puts it, "In contrast to formalist film historians, who seek to recover what is increasingly becoming a lost object, feminists have been primarily concerned to unearth the history of the (found) female subject" (1990: 11). This is a discovery that calls for discourse drawn from the utopian genres of techno-feminism. That this "discovery" of female subjectivity has been motivated by the parallels between early cinema and new imaging technologies is, I believe, a fundamental aspect of the new feminist film historiography. The term "parallax" is useful to describe this historiography, because it is a term that invokes a shift in perspective as well as a sense of parallelism. -

Finding the Way: Films Found on a Scrap Heap1
FINDING THE WAY: FILMS FOUND ON A SCRAP HEAP1 Tom Gunning Abstract: Some filmmakers restrict their manipulations of found footage to the minimal act of presenting a film they have discovered with almost no changes. But others have subjected found footage to extensive editing, chemical manipulation, rephotography, or new soundtracks (or all of these processes combined). In this brief essay I cannot hope to cover all the permutations of this rich genre of experimental film, nor to mention all of its numerous practitioners (and I will deal with the visual image more than sound). However, I do want to give a sense of the range of approaches that exist using found footage to mention a few of its masters. Keywords: found objects, found-footage, archival filmmaking 1 First published in BLOEMHEUVEL, Marente; FOSSATI, Giovanna; GULDEMOND, Jaap (org.). Found Footage: cinema exposed. Amsterdam: Amsterdam University Press/ Eye Film Institute, 2012, p. 49- 55. Uma publicação do LAICA-USP - Volume 3, Número 5, Junho de 2014 FINDING THE WAY – Tom Gunning Modern art made from found material often takes the form of a Dadaist joke – a work of “anti-art” that questions our assumptions about the value and nature of art generally. Marcel Duchamp’s 1917 “sculpture,” Fountain, a ready-made urinal placed on a pedestal for exhibition and signed “R. Mutt,” remains the most famous and powerful example of this nihilist attitude. Attacking idealizing traditions that see art as the expression of eternal beauty or individual genius, Duchamp’s work shocked viewers and raised a series of questions that became crucial to twentieth century art: the difference between industrial mass production and the traditional work of art; the very nature of authorship in the arts (“R. -
