Media representation in particular has a long legacy of portraying white male bodies as injured or wounded, dating back to the bloody “hard bodies” of Reagan-era action films. This essay returns to another one of these earlier cultural moments, examining the vulgar physical comedy of the Jackass media franchise as a window into masculine formations in the United States at the turn of the twenty-first century. Specifically, I examine Jackass’s “stupid” white masculinity, which combines bloody self-injury with a scatological logic of bodily incoherence displayed by the show’s pissing, shitting, and puking white stuntmen. Viewed retrospectively—against the contemporary horrors of Charlottesville, El Paso, and other places memorialized by Trumpian eruptions of murderous white masculinity—the dumb white dudes of Jackass appear almost a blip in the rearview mirror, now superseded by a return to something far more sinister. Yet Jackass in its own time expressed a hegemonic white masculinity specific to neoliberal and neoconservative forces of the Clinton and Bush years, one organized ambivalently around an excessive anality. This ambivalent anality both parodied national and gendered fantasies of “hardness” at the same time that it drew on dynamics of racial and queer mimesis to reinscribe hegemonic (white/straight) masculinity. However, the more recent development of a queer ecological perspective allows us to revisit the show’s scatology, also seeing in it what Nicole Seymour has described as an ethical “counter-phobia” which refuses the nature/culture binary that informs Western culture’s deeply embedded erotophobia and somatophobia. This essay takes up the ambivalent anality of Jackass, tracing the ways it has served as precursor to present-day logics of white male grievance, even as its spectacular scatology offers an undertheorized challenge to the cultural revulsion for embodiment and nature that informs all social (gendered, racial, sexual) logics of domination.","PeriodicalId":235953,"journal":{"name":"Media+Environment","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129666035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lerner","doi":"10.1525/001c.35470","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1525/001c.35470","url":null,"abstract":"“Genealogies of Environmental Media” analyzes a feminist genealogy of art and media practice that reconstitutes the relationship between bodies and environments through what Shannon Jackson calls “social works”—artworks that are engaged at the nexus of aesthetics and politics. I attend to social works that focus on the environment, and in so doing, reveal a feminist strategy of performance that I refer to as the choreographic body. The choreographic body enacts the labor of performance and alters the embodied experience of spectators and participants. As media bodies, choreographic bodies are semiotic and historically contingent, advancing environmental work in ways that foreground how the performing body exposes environmental infrastructures that are occluded from view. In the social works I analyze, the choreographic body occupies a site of reflexive mediation that bears on the environment, lacing feminist art with media histories. I trace the changing status of the choreographic body alongside environmental social work beginning with filmmaker Maya Deren’s choreocinema and dancer Anna Halprin’s community dance to illustrate how the choreographic body developed as a feminist strategy—shifting from explorations of the body in front of the camera in the outdoors, to dance’s shifting location from inside the studio to outside on Halprin’s dance deck and in the wider California community. This foundation then recasts performance artist Mierle Laderman Ukeles through the lens of dance as an overlooked, but central, part of her environmental practice. I read Touch Sanitation and Marrying the Barges: A Barge Ballet/Touch Sanitation Show in light of how she utilizes the choreographic body as an overlooked feminist strategy. This positions the bodies of participants in a larger choreography of performance. Finally, I analyze Invisible-5, a travelogue/audio tour of Interstate 5 in California that brings awareness to environmental injustice, as a way to think through the shifting role of the choreographic body in more recent work and ask where it might lead us as scholars and activists.","PeriodicalId":235953,"journal":{"name":"Media+Environment","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132206836","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Borunda","doi":"10.1525/001c.36561","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1525/001c.36561","url":null,"abstract":"Early atomic media, infrastructures, and the atomic attack (a phrase I take up instead of the ambiguous and occluding term atomic test) at the Trinity site in Nuevo México remain surprisingly unexamined through the lens of coloniality (Quijano 2000). This essay proposes “mediations of atomic coloniality” as a “creative mediation” (Kember and Zylinska 2012, 200) to investigate the public facing discourses around the world’s earliest nuclear infrastructures at Trinity. This critical approach is multimodal and (1) uses a site visit by the author to highlight the public discourses that circulate at the Trinity landmark; (2) explores early atomic documentary cinema and their spatialization of Nuevo México; and (3) looks at the emergence of what the author terms downwind media as taken up by local community activists in the Tularosa Basin Downwinders Consortium. Mediations of atomic coloniality as an approach engages with mediation as composed of dynamic processes that interlink diverse forms of media ranging from radioactive bodies to lands, films, and current regional media activism stemming from Trinity. This approach moves beyond notions of the first atomic bomb as exceeding traditional forms of mediation. Instead, it both sheds light on the role of media objects in the bolstering of dominant Eurocentric discourses of the early atomic age in Nuevo México and follows the dispersed accounts of radioactive and racialized “slow violence” (Nixon 2013) articulated by local communities of color. Ultimately, this essay explores what is gained in understanding the nuclear infrastructures at Trinity through a broader media ecology and, relatedly, how mediation might also function as a praxis in environmental justice efforts.","PeriodicalId":235953,"journal":{"name":"Media+Environment","volume":"127 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131615590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
