Abstract

ABSTRACT The world is precarious and changing, yet we continue to find ways to order and understand these entanglements; taming the complexity out there. In linear documentary, shots by necessity need to be ordered and fixed by the edit, whilst some shots do not make the cut at all. Due to the affordances of the online network, multilinear documentary allows multiple possible arrangements of audiovisual nonfiction content without the time restrictions to leave content out. How can we conceive an audiovisual nonfiction practice which senses the entanglements of the fluxing world around us? Over the past six years I have been experimenting with the affordances of the Korsakow authoring system to make multilinear nonfiction. Korsakow works with fragments of audiovisual content and allows multiple possible relations to form between parts. Through the development of two major projects, I have found Korsakow offers a way of maintaining the world in fragments as soft multiple relations, reflecting an ecocritical world as entangled continually doing things. By sketching out the practice I developed through this body of work, I will propose that Korsakow provides an audiovisual nonfiction tool to tune into and sense the indeterminate patterns and rhythms of the world.

Korsakow的调谐与感知:多线性非虚构文学的生态批评潜力

摘要世界是不稳定和变化的，但我们仍在继续寻找秩序和理解这些纠葛的方法；驯服那里的复杂性。在线性纪录片中，镜头必须由剪辑进行排序和固定，而有些镜头根本无法剪辑。由于在线网络的可供性，多语言纪录片允许对视听非虚构内容进行多种可能的安排，而没有时间限制将内容排除在外。我们如何构思一种视听非小说实践，来感知我们周围不断变化的世界的纠缠？在过去的六年里，我一直在尝试Korsakow创作系统的可供性，以制作多语言非小说。Korsakow处理视听内容的片段，并允许在各部分之间形成多种可能的关系。通过两个主要项目的开发，我发现Korsakow提供了一种将世界保持在碎片中的方式，作为一种柔软的多重关系，反映了一个不断纠缠的生态批判世界。通过勾勒出我在这部作品中发展起来的实践，我将建议Korsakow提供一种视听非虚构工具，来调节和感知世界的不确定模式和节奏。
