A Theory of Perceptual Vulnerability in the Age of Synthetic Images.
This article develops Iconemia as a theory of perceptual vulnerability in the age of synthetic images. It examines how generative AI, image saturation, and attention platforms transform the conditions through which images act on perception, memory, affect, and cultural knowledge.
Submitted to Animation: An Interdisciplinary Journal
Practice, Autonomy, Experience, and Anticipation in the Animated Image.
This article proposes a theoretical model for understanding animated images through four modes: practice, autonomy, experience, and anticipation. Using the metaphor of knitting as a conceptual operator, it analyzes how animated works move from making, to independent existence, to viewer experience and predictive engagement.
