CONFERENCES
  • Flaxton T. (2010) New Understandings of the Mimetic and Diegetic in the Creation of Art, Xi’an Academy of Fine Art
            ​(published online at Academia.edu). In this paper I begin to explore the nature of attention and the gaze so it signals the beginnings of my realisation I should
            ​now begin to think through the relationship of the technology of capture and display and the nature of the sentient consciousness that was looking at the
            ​​mediated form of the world and what that might mean

(2010) Notes on the Developing Aesthetics of Digital Technology and its effects on Transmedial Disciplines, University of Bristol, Technologies of Transmediality, (published online at Academia.edu)  Here I am beginning to turn my own gaze on the idea that evidence itself has limitations.

            ​Here I took as my thesis the unarticulated gestures to be found in the video work of the same name mentioned in the previous portfolio, combining them
            ​together with my alighting on the proposition that the human gaze itself was not without functionality itself - that its specificities and affordances make it a                     pliable and evolving material.
