Description
Summary:This book discusses developments and continuities in experimental animation that, since Robert Russet and Cecile Starr's 'Experimental Animation: Origins of a New Art' (1976), has proliferated in the context of expanded cinema, performance and live 'making' and is today exhibited in galleries, public sites and online. With reference to historical, critical, phenomenological and interdisciplinary approaches, international researchers offer new and diverse methodologies for thinking through these myriad animation practices. This volume addresses fundamental questions of form, such as drawing and the line, but also broadens out to encompass topics such as the intermedial, post-humanism, the real, fakeness and fabrication, causation, new forms of synthetic space, ecology, critical reworkings of cartoons and process as narrative.
