SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-us:"Talk: \"Tracing Media Histories Through Videographic Criticism\" by Jiří Anger, Veronica Hanáková"
DESCRIPTION:"\rHow can videographic criticism help us understand weird and borderline obsolete artifacts and interfaces from the analog and early digital eras that continue to resurface in the online space? Join film scholars Jiří Anger (Queen Mary University of London) and Veronica Hanáková (Charles University, Prague) for a curated screening of media-archaeological video essays exploring things like outdated video game interfaces, tacky editing transitions, and proto-internet news services. These essays uncover surprising connections between technology, cultural memory, and the transfer of ideas across time and media. \r\rThe screening will be followed by a Q&A session. \r\rDownload Event Flyer (PDF)\r\rAbout the Presenters\r\rJiří Anger is a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow at the Department of Film, Queen Mary University of London. His research lies at the intersection of media theory, archival practice, and videographic scholarship. His articles and videos have been published or are forthcoming in journals like Screen, NECSUS, [in]Transition, and Film-Philosophy. His most recent book is Towards a Film Theory from Below: Archival Film and the Aesthetics of the Crack-Up.\r\rVeronika Hanáková explores the materiality, memory, and preservation of digital images and artifacts, with a focus on DVD features and interfaces. She has published widely in journals like NECSUS, [in]Transition, and Tecmerin, co-curates the Audiovisual Essay section at the Marienbad Film Festival, and guest-edited a special issue  “Configuring Computer Labor in Film and Audiovisual Media” for Iluminace (no. 2/2024).\r"
