Whether we consider the digitally created and manipulated faces of
Hollywood cinema or the social media filters, face apps, and
surveillance software of everyday life, reading face language has
become the seemingly endless task of humans and machines alike.
Recent facial controversies - from politicians in blackface to
"deep fakes," casting debates, and facial data collection-- have
made clear the need for a broader understanding of the face on
screen and its varied techniques and effects. This book will
consider the screen face from a variety of perspectives, across
time periods and media, bringing together essays on topics ranging
from early cinema to contemporary digital media - from photogenie
to facial recognition, celebrity culture to digital creatures. It
explores how screen culture builds on and complicates our urge to
search the face for answers to our most intractable questions.
