In contemporary society, 'the visual' becomes a traversing
denominator passing through the most diverse articulations: from
new media, branding, drone vision and robot culture to cityscapes,
design and art. The transvisuality project in three volumes
promotes the turn away from the predominance of a focus on
representations in studies of visual culture. Volume 2 introduces
visual organisation in-the-making as an effect of manifold
traversing articulations and interconnected practices: how is the
'stuff' of visuality-an image like a photograph, an incident on TV,
a cinematic oeuvre-intertwined in a range of cultural practices,
transformed and transgressed by them in transvisuality. The aim of
the book is to map how visual organizations are traversing culture
as articulatory practices in situ. The resulting case studies take
their departure in different materialities and agencies of
empirical, embedded visuality-from canvas to drone camera-and
illustrate how transvisuality evolves in and around publics and
communities on the one hand and through bodies and media on the
other. The visual articulations analysed in this volume span from
cellphone videos to forensic images, from biomedia to robots, from
bunker ruins to Kalighat pat paintings, from a Palestinian wedding
dress to video footage of unknown strangers in a metro, from the
Gorgon Stare to movies becoming art installations. While the first
volume addresses the boundaries of the notion of visuality and
creative openings that visual culture studies offer, the third
volume maps visuality in contexts of design, creativity and brand
management.
