In addition to the screening, Patrick Staff will also present a text and video-in progress to prelude their coming solo show Weed Killer at Los Angeles’ MOCA in 2017 that looks at 'illness and gender, and particularly the intersections of queer identity, cross-generational dialogue, and the fine line between states that both poison and nourish.

    Priya

    Full text link
    Priya is an extended aerial shot of a twirling Kathak dancer. The footage was buried in various organic materials deteriorating the initial image in an attempt to shift cultural specificity and linear narratives of time and space. Rituals of burial expound successive memories of entombment; the skin of the film becomes the body of the dancer, fracturing time into a darkly evocative, psychological space

    Black Powder Peninsular

    Full text link
    Noski Deville continues her collaboration as Director of Photography with artist Jananne Al-Ani, shooting across various HD formats using helicopter, boat and drone platforms. Black Powder Peninsular takes the form of an aerial journey across the British landscape. Al-Ani’s film features an area of north Kent rich in military and industrial history. Locations include the remains of the Curtis’s and Harvey explosives factory at Cliffe; the ghostly footprint of the Anglo Iranian Oil Company’s refinery on the Isle of Grain; and the ruins of Palmerston forts in the Medway estuary. Black Powder Peninsular is a single-channel digital video, which extends Al-Ani’s long-standing enquiry into the relationship between the technologies of photography and flight and their impact on modern warfare, from the earliest systematic use of aerial reconnaissance over the battlefields of northern Europe during World War One to the use of surveillance satellites and drones today

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
