Abstract:A photographic image is said to provide evidence of a photographed scene because it is a causal imprint of reflected light, an indexical trace of real objects and events. Though widely established in the history, theory, and philosophy of photography, this traditional imprinting model must be rejected because it relies on a “single-stage” misconception of the photographic process: the idea that a photographic image comes into existence at the time of exposure. In its place, a “multistage” account properly articulates different production stages, such as registering and rendering, that are relevant to understanding the relation between a photographic image and the photographed scene. By denying that any photographic image is a causal imprint, the multistage approach proposes a more demanding evaluation of photographic evidence. This has implications for documentary film and photojournalism, along with specialized applications such as forensics, surveillance, and face-recognition technology.

Abstract:This essay considers how Palestinian history and experience might be reclaimed from colonial films from British Mandate Palestine, and how sensory and synesthetic attention developed in experimental filmmaking might bear on archival footage. Analysis focuses in particular on the possibilities of sound. My reflections draw heavily on a current work in progress, Partition, which makes extensive use of found footage from Britain’s imperial collections and sound recordings made with Palestinian refugees in Lebanon and across the sites of their displacement. The film attempts to harness the disruptive potential of refugee voice to make visible the continuity of Palestinian presence in colonial archives and to deconstruct and reconstruct archival authority and colonial history.

in 1975 playboy magazine sent the novelist mordecai richler to interview Mae Brussell at her home in Carmel, California. Brussell was the host of a popular radio show called Dialogue: Conspiracy. She also published a newsletter, daringly called The Realist, which at some point was saved from bankruptcy thanks to John Lennon’s financial generosity. Skeptical of the official version of the assassination of John F. Kennedy, she had combed through the 26 volumes of the Warren Commission report looking for inconsistencies and clues. She did not come out empty-handed. The assassination, she concluded, was part of a vast fascist plot to take over America, and she was intent on exposing it. Over the years, she commented on the major and lesser events of the day—the kidnapping of Patricia Hearst, the Chappaquiddick incident—and suggested they were episodes of the same global conspiracy. Richler was not impressed:
1975年，《花花公子》杂志派小说家莫迪凯·里奇勒去梅·布鲁塞尔位于加州卡梅尔的家中采访她。布鲁塞尔是一个很受欢迎的广播节目“对话:阴谋”的主持人。她还出版了一份时事通讯，大胆地命名为《现实主义者》(The Realist)。由于约翰·列侬(John Lennon)的慷慨资助，这本杂志一度免于破产。她对约翰·f·肯尼迪(John F. Kennedy)遇刺案的官方说法持怀疑态度，仔细梳理了沃伦委员会(Warren Commission)的26卷报告，寻找前后矛盾的地方和线索。她没有空手而归。她总结说，这次暗杀是法西斯统治美国的巨大阴谋的一部分，她决心要揭露这个阴谋。多年来，她评论了当天发生的重大事件和次要事件——帕特里夏·赫斯特被绑架、查帕奎迪克事件——并认为它们是同一个全球阴谋的插曲。Richler并没有被打动。
