Heterogeneous Objects explores the encounter of photography with
other media since the 1960s. The essays offer new ways of thinking
about photography beyond modernist notions of medium specificity
and autonomy based upon the idea that a photograph does not rely on
a coherent system of codes but is almost always encountered as a
fragmented, partial object. Addressing recent debates in art
history and photography theory, film studies, and media theory, the
contributions cover a broad array of approaches. Rather than
conceiving of photography as a medium, the aim is to reconsider the
photograph as a historically, theoretically, and culturally
embedded heterogeneous object that is always related to, in contact
with, or shaped by other media.
