Cinematic Guerrillas
Author: Jie Li
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 023155639X
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
Winner, 2024 Moving Image Book Award, Kraszna-Krausz Foundation How might cinema make revolution and mobilize the masses? In socialist China, the film exhibition network expanded from fewer than six hundred movie theaters to more than a hundred thousand mobile film projectionist teams. Holding screenings in improvised open-air spaces in rural areas lacking electricity, these roving projectionists brought not only films but also power generators, loudspeakers, slideshows, posters, live performances, and mass ritual participation, amplifying the era’s utopian dreams and violent upheavals. Cinematic Guerrillas is a media history of Chinese film exhibition and reception that offers fresh insights into the powers and limits of propaganda. Drawing on a wealth of archives, memoirs, interviews, and ethnographic fieldwork, Jie Li examines the media networks and environments, discourses and practices, experiences and memories of film projectionists and their grassroots audiences from the 1940s to the 1980s. She considers the ideology and practice of “cinematic guerrillas”—at once denoting onscreen militants, off-the-grid movie teams, and unruly moviegoers—bridging Maoist iconography, the experiences of projectionists, and popular participation and resistance. Li reconceptualizes socialist media practices as “revolutionary spirit mediumship” that aimed to turn audiences into congregations, contribute to the Mao cult, convert skeptics of revolutionary miracles, and exorcize class enemies. Cinematic Guerrillas considers cinema’s meanings for revolution and nation building; successive generations of projectionists; workers, peasants, and soldiers; women and ethnic minorities; and national leaders, local cadres, and cultural censors. By reading diverse, vivid, and often surprising accounts of moviegoing, Li excavates Chinese media theories that provide a critical new perspective on world cinema.

Guerrilla Theory
Author: Matthew Applegate
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780810140851
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
"The figure of the guerrilla appears in digital humanities' (DH) recent history as an agent of tactical reformation. It refers to various disciplinary desires: a claim to collaborative and inclusive pedagogy, minimal and encrypted computing, and a host of political interventions such as queer politics, critical race studies, and feminist theory. Drawing out the political, ontological, and technological underpinnings of the guerrilla as a figure, this text connects popular iterations of its practice to DH's political rhetoric and infrastructure. By doing so, it reorients DH's conceptual lexicon around practices of collective becoming, mediated by claims to conflict, antagonism, and democratic will. The introduction and chapter one pair a theory-driven analysis of DH's minoritarian interventions alongside contemporary political theory by focusing on Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri's radical democratic ingresses into network theory. These chapters also explore work by thinkers formative of #transformDH like Moya Bailey, Natalia Cecire, and others. Chapters two, three, and four connect post/decolonial, feminist, and Marxist iterations of DH praxis to the aesthetic histories of actually existing guerrilla movements (Latin American Third Cinema, Black Mask's anti-representational politics, and the documentary cinema of the Black Panther Party). All three chapters balance guerrilla history and DH method by exploring their common concepts: critical/politicized acts of making, representational and anti-representational politics, and the production of the common. "Guerilla Theory's" conclusion offers a concept of digital humanities as a form of critical university studies, challenging DH's current political scope, and thus its future institutional impact."--Provided by publisher.

Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
2015 Susanne K. Langer Award for Outstanding Scholarship, Media Ecology Association 2013 Book of the Year, Visual Communication Division, National Communication Association Amidst the profound upheavals in technology, economics, and culture that mark the contemporary moment, marketing strategies have multiplied, as brand messages creep ever deeper into our private lives. In Your Ad Here, an engaging and timely new book, Michael Serazio investigates the rise of “guerrilla marketing” as a way of understanding increasingly covert and interactive flows of commercial persuasion. Digging through a decade of trade press coverage and interviewing dozens of agency CEOs, brand managers, and creative directors, Serazio illuminates a diverse and fascinating set of campaign examples: from the America’s Army video game to Pabst Blue Ribbon’s “hipster hijack,” from buzz agent bloggers and tweeters to The Dark Knight’s “Why So Serious?” social labyrinth. Blending rigorous analysis with eye-opening reporting and lively prose, Your Ad Here reveals the changing ways that commercial culture is produced today. Serazio goes behind-the-scenes with symbolic creators to appreciate the professional logic informing their work, while giving readers a glimpse into this new breed of “hidden persuaders” optimized for 21st-century media content, social patterns, and digital platforms. Ultimately, this new form of marketing adds up to a subtle, sophisticated orchestration of consumer conduct and heralds a world of advertising that pretends to have nothing to sell.
