Tomorrowland
No full textTomorrowland adapts Lisa Samuels' book Tomorrowland (2009) and her soundscape CDs Tomorrowland (2012) into a filmic heterotopia combining promised lands with historical suicide and populated by symbolic figures. In the film, the androgynous Eula shoots in from outside the planet to act as our instigating guide to the fateful circumstances of Fasti, Manda, and Jack, who plays death. Director Wes Tank writes, "The combination of Samuels’ lyrical divinations and the evolving landscapes fuse a deep emotional connection. As the world faces new inequalities and migration crises, Tomorrowland imagines digital and bodily selfhood in a history of violence and the continual rebirth of the urge to hope.

Undoing Subjectivity: Sensual Politics, Semioethics, Agency, and Affect in Anne Garréta’s Sphinx
No full textThis thesis investigates subjectivity in the context of four main interconnecting themes: sensual politics, agency, affect, and semioethics. While ‘undoing’ subjectivity in Anne Garréta’s Sphinx, I pursue a dialectical and intersectional approach to subjectivity that reveals how the text’s grammars each take dialectical turns of privilege to articulate different ontologies and ways of thinking and perceiving. I argue that Sphinx’s formal constraint encourages a (distributed) ontological reading experience, and that in order to ‘undo’ or ‘rethink’ subjectivity afresh in Sphinx, one also ought to interpret and imagine distributively. I further contend that Sphinx’s subtle yet powerful shifts in language prompts a shift in affect, and I argue that the text – though not always ethical – queers dominant discourse while it re-writes supposedly stable critical identitarian tendencies. In Chapter One, I implement Susan Petrilli’s concept of semioethics, for such theorisations seek to detotalise global communication systems; they encourage us to rethink how subjectivity is experienced and felt, and they encourage enquiry toward how language shapes our subjectivities and their permissible expressions. In Chapter Two I derive two hermeneutic frameworks from the work of Lisa Samuels - termed Deformance and ‘distributed centrality.’ I use these theories in a bid to undo dominant discourses, critical interpretations and modalities of thinking about normative ontologies concerning subjectivity. I argue that the text performs a poetic ‘sensual politics’ which resists ideas of static subjectivity and identity
