Immediation II

by Manning Erin (Editor), Anna Munster (Editor), Bodil Marie Stavning Thomsen (Editor)

Overview

All 'mediation' stages and distributes real, embodied events. This capacity to enact in the immediacy of everyday life is an integral part of any mediation. But this entails that nothing can be prised apart from an ecology of exprience. Immediation I and II collectively and singularly ask: what are the thinking-feeling imperceptibilities conditioning and immediately registering in experience today?

"Truly, Immediation is a rhizome. And yet, even as the tendrils make off in so many different, fascinating directions, the relationship between the chapters in each 'movement' is indisputable: the essays address, reiterate, echo, scrutinize, reflect and 'preflect' each other."

-- Gregory Flaxman, Associate Professor, English and Comparative Literature, Director of Global Cinema Studies, University of North Carolina

"...attention to the key concept of immediation but without a mechanical application of it to different targets. Instead there is a palpable sense of controlled yet innovative experimentation."

-- John Protevi, Phyllis M. Taylor Professor of French Studies, Louisiana State University
