Research Interests:

Temporal experience in moving image and sound; the relationship between perception, memory, technology and location/situation; discourses on aesthetics, spectatorship and temporality; temporal dislocation and the (dis)connections between sound and image.

Anticipated Retrospection: manifesting pastness in moving image and sound through art practice (PhD title ) proposes that a sense of past can be experienced through a complex materiality. In seeking to reveal this, I am investigating areas of disjuncture in temporal experience and of how differing temporalities can be ‘known’.  I am making use of my own spectatorial experience of archival film, its transference to analogue/digital video, as well as producing my own footage in response.   Coastal landscape, sea and sky are used as a means of examining spectatorship and location, context and the ontological implications.  I am also tracing a discourse around the experience of time and materiality through artists’ film and video, examining reflexive and apperceptive experience.
