[Frameworks] I have a new book on visual music

2018-01-11 Thread Michael Betancourt
My new book might be of interest to some of you. Apologies for the
self-promotion

*Harmonia: Glitch, Movies and Visual Music*, by Michael Betancourt

It's on amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1479436089/cinegraphicne-20

*Harmonia,*  “harmonies,” analyzes the connections between glitch art,
visual music, abstraction, and motion pictures. This collection is a
chronological survey of glitch art pioneer Michael Betancourt’s artistic
research into, around, and with digital motion pictures that theorizes and
critiques visual music. This anthology is directly connected to his
critical engagement with the socio-cultural meaning of “visionary art” that
builds on the work of Umberto Eco and Michel Foucault to engage with the
historical films of John Whitney, Mary Ellen Bute, Mark Hallock-Greenewalt,
and Stan Brakhage (among others) connecting them with contemporary glitch
movies. Included in this collection is his taxonomy of abstract forms based
on synaesthesia, a discussion of the historical foundations and connections
between color music/color organs, synaesthesia and the visual music
instruments and films of the twentieth century, and an analysis of the
fundamental connections between visual music and realism that reveals an
ideological reification created by the synchronization of sound and image.
This analysis goes beyond a historical recounting of artists and their
works to propose an understanding of synaesthetic media in aesthetic as
well as critical, ideological terms. Included are the essays “The Aura of
the Digital,” “The Invention of Glitch Video,” “Semiotics of the Moon as
Fantasy and Destination,” and “Welcome to Cyberia” along with many other
talks, publications, and analyses of glitch art and visual music.
