The spectral realm at the boundaries of images incessantly reveals a desire to see beyond the visible and its medium: screens, frames, public displays, and projection sites in an art context. The impact of new media on art and film has influenced the material histories and performances (be they in theory or practice) of images across the disciplines.Digital technologies have not only shaped post-cinematic media cultures and visual epistemologies, but they are behind a growing shift towards anew realismin theory, art, film, and in the art of the moving image in particular.Technology and Desireexamines the performative ontologies of moving images across the genealogies of media and their aesthetic agency in contemporary media and video art, CGI, painting, video games, and installations. Drawing on cultural studies, media and film theory as well as art history to provide exemplary evidence of this shift, this book has as its central theme the question of whether images are predicated upon transgressing the boundaries of their framing-and whether in the course of their existence they develop a life of their own.
