According to Deleuze, we have come to live in a universe that could be described as metacinematic. His conception of images implies a new kind of camera consciousness, one that determines our perceptions and sense of selves: aspects of our subjectivities are formed in, for instance, action-images, affection-images and time-images. We live in a matrix of visual culture that is always moving and changing. Each image is always connected to an assemblage of affects and forces. This book presents a model, as well as many concrete examples, of how to work with Deleuze in film theory. It asks questions about the universe as metacinema, subjectivity, violence, feminism, monstrosity, and music. Among the contemporary films it discusses within a Deleuzian framework are \u003ci\u003eStrange Days\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFight Club\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eDancer in the Dark\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Patricia Pisters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804740283\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804740289\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/24\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.62h x 5.58w x 0.69d","brand":"Patricia Pisters","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44120255889663,"sku":"9780804740289","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1d43c1c5-5a99-4006-8982-3f78249c3179.jpg?v=1687413330","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-matrix-of-visual-culture-patricia-pisters-9780804740289","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
