Screening nature (and the nature of the screen)

Abstract

‘Screening nature (and the nature of the screen)’, as the title suggests, is not confined to contemporary screen cultures or screen technologies, but offers a larger panorama of screen practices that go back to pre-modern cultures, and perhaps even into the animal kingdom. My idea is to place the contemporary emphasis on an ‘archaeology of the screen’ (following Foucault) within the framework of a ‘paleontology of the screen’, one that tries to establish a fundamental ontology of the screen alongside some elementary concepts for describing and understanding the variety of screen practices.
