Fromer* Abstract: Copyright law, which promotes the creation of cultural and artistic works by protecting these works from being copied, excuses infringement that is deemed to be a fair use. Whether an otherwise infringing work is a fair use is determined by courts weighing at least four factors, one of which is the effect of the otherwise infringing work on the market for the copyrighted work. The Supreme Court’s decision just over twenty years ago in Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. opened the door to a laudable analytical framework for the bearing of market effects on fair use. First, Campbell supports a more full-bodied investigation of the market effects—both harms and benefits—of defendants’ works on plaintiffs’ copyrighted works.

  • Serial Historiography: Literature, Narrative History, and the Anxiety of Truth
    SERIAL HISTORIOGRAPHY: LITERATURE, NARRATIVE HISTORY, AND THE ANXIETY OF TRUTH James Benjamin Bolling A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Minrose Gwin Jennifer Ho Megan Matchinske John McGowan Timothy Marr ©2016 James Benjamin Bolling ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Ben Bolling: Serial Historiography: Literature, Narrative History, and the Anxiety of Truth (Under the direction of Megan Matchinske) Dismissing history’s truths, Hayden White provocatively asserts that there is an “inexpugnable relativity” in every representation of the past. In the current dialogue between literary scholars and historical empiricists, postmodern theorists assert that narrative is enclosed, moribund, and impermeable to the fluid demands of history. My critical intervention frames history as a recursive, performative process through historical and critical analysis of the narrative function of seriality. Seriality, through the material distribution of texts in discrete components, gives rise to a constellation of entimed narrative strategies that provide a template for human experience. I argue that serial form is both fundamental to the project of history and intrinsically subjective. Rather than foreclosing the historiographic relevance of storytelling, my reading of serials from comic books to the fiction of William Faulkner foregrounds the possibilities of narrative to remain open, contingent, and responsive to the potential fortuities of historiography. In the post-9/11 literary and historical landscape, conceiving historiography as a serialized, performative enterprise controverts prevailing models of hermeneutic suspicion that dominate both literary and historiographic skepticism of narrative truth claims and revives an ethics responsive to the raucous demands of the past.

  • Workshop of Potential Scholarship: Manifesto for a Parametric Videographic Criticism
    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF MEDIA STUDIES www.necsus-ejms.org Workshop of Potential Scholarship: Manifesto for a parametric videographic criticism Alan O’Leary NECSUS 10 (1), Spring 2021: 75–98 URL: https://necsus-ejms.org/workshop-of-potential-scholarship- manifesto-for-a-parametric-videographic-criticism/ Abstract This article sets out the rationale for a videographic scholarship (the audiovisual study of screen media) that adopts constraint-based or ‘parametric’ procedures, and concludes with a short manifesto com- posed according to the simple constraint of division into ten equal segments of 50 words each. The article situates a parametric practice in relation to OuLiPo (a group founded in the early 1960s to explore constraint-based approaches to writing), to pataphysics (an absurdist branch of knowledge concerned with what eludes understanding by conventional means), to themes in the digital humanities, and to the posthuman. And it issues a call to forge an ‘agonistic society’ of vide- ographic scholars who goad each other to greater achievement through the conspicuous and wasteful expenditure of resources of knowledge. Keywords: constraints, cyborg, Donna Haraway, enactment, OuLiPo, pataphysics, posthuman, potlatch, video essay Introduction: OuScholPo This essay proposes a rationale for a constraint-based or ‘parametric’ practice of videographic scholarship and is followed by a 500-word manifesto com- posed according to the simple constraint of division into ten equal segments of 50 words each.

  • Videographic Scholarship And/As Digital Humanities
    Videographic Scholarship and/as Digital Humanities Steve F. Anderson For cinema and media studies scholars, the emergence of two areas of scholarly practice—namely videographic scholarship and the Digital Humanities (DH)—has created opportunities for new forms of argumentation, analysis and research, as well as new venues for the dissemination of scholarly output related to the study of the moving image. While videographic scholarship and DH overlap in many ways, they also remain distinct, with few scholar-practitioners actively working in both realms. How can we understand this separation and begin to imagine a more productive relationship between them? Key to our understanding of both videographic scholarship and DH is the ongoing cultural contestation between images and data, bearing important implications for the ways each practice stakes claims about its access to new ways of knowing, researching and presenting information. I explore here some of those distinctions and overlaps, and suggest that the primarily image-based practice of videographic scholarship would benefit from adapting a process of serial review and revision derived from early experiments with data-based digital scholarship. Adapting these protocols to the specific needs of videographic scholarship would better support the scholarly benefits of process, evaluation and collaboration. The center of gravity in today’s understanding of DH lies with large-scale, computational analysis of machine-readable data (think of text-encoding initiatives in which vast collections of literary works are converted into searchable data). The “digital” in this understanding of DH offers one way 2 to bring computation into partnership with humanistic inquiry. However, this is not the only possible framework for recognizing the potential contributions of computation to the humanities.

  • Mash-Up, Remix: New Languages for New Technologies
    This page was exported from - Digital meets Culture Export date: Sat Sep 25 19:56:44 2021 / +0000 GMT Mash-up, remix: new languages for new technologies by Tania Masi The Internet Festival, to a certain extent, resembles Internet. The offer is so wide and various, even though interconnected, that you can feel lost or you can get the frenzy to see as much as possible or you can simply wander among the different places which, so as the hubs of the web, show the highest events-density. So as it happens in the web, everyone follows his path. And everyone finally meets what is most suitable for him. So as in the web, you must choose among a lot of options and you must do it quickly. Then, you follow an idea or better a word, a key word, as in the search engine. Among the many words which arose in my head by reading the schedule, finally one stayed fixed in my mind more than the others: ?mashup?. The workshop ?Mashup, remix: new languages for new technologies? was held in the theater of the Arsenale, the historical ?cinema d'essai? in Pisa. In the debate, moderated by Sandra Lischi, professor of Videoart and co-director of the Milan's Invideo Festival, interlaced and came in succession the speeches of: Derrick de Kerchove, big-famed scholar all along involved in the study of the relation between new media and social, anthropological and political changes; Mariangela Matarozzo and Alessandra Lo Russo, curators of the Mash Rome Film Festival ? at its second edition in 2013 ? and Danilo Torre, author of video works.
