About this title
This video is an audiovisual re-imagining of Tom Gunning’s essay “Flicker and Shutter” from the anthology Indefinite Visions (Edinburgh University Press, 2017, indefinitevisions.com). Using Gunning’s words and ideas, the video explores cinema’s material vulnerability, attempting to mimic film’s sensory effects within the alternate materiality of video.
