More than Fifteen Minutes of Fame - The Changing Face of Screen Performance (Paperback, New edition)

More than Fifteen Minutes of Fame tracks screen performance's trajectory from dominant discourses of realism and authenticity towards increasingly acute degrees of self-referentiality and self-reflexivity. Exploring the symbiotic relationship between changing forms of onscreen representation and our shifting status as social subjects, the book provides an original perspective through international examples from cinema, experimental production, documentary, television, and the burgeoning landscape of online screen performance. In an emerging culture of participatory media, the creation of a screen-based presence for our own performances of identity has become a currency through which we validate ourselves as subjects of the contemporary, hyper-mediatized world. In this post-dramatic, post-Warhol climate, the author's contention is that we are becoming increasingly wedded to screen media - not just as consumers but as producers and performers.
