Big Screens, Small Forms.
Visual Varieties in Digital Media Culture

We witness an era with more screens than ever before, and within each screen, a multitude of visual varieties. Lisa Gotto investigates this medial diversity as a field of tension between large and small forms of digital image culture. This includes, on the one hand, the immersive potential of large image arrangements, such as digital 3D cinema and Virtual Reality experiences, and, on the other hand, the compactness of mobile image forms, such as those of the smartphone film or the media practices of Instagram. Weaving together a rich variety of examples and sources, Lisa Gotto explores the transformational potential of digital media culture, contextualizes its media-technical conditions, and reflects on its social consequences.
