Böcker av Patricia Pisters

The first monograph of the work of one of the Netherlands' most prolific filmmakers spanning sixty years of cultural history.

The Neuro-Image investigates cinema's survival in the digital age through neuroscientific and philosophical understandings of the brain, our conception of the future, and the affective intensity of contemporary screen culture.

This work explores Gilles Deleuze's contribution to film theory. According to Deleuze, we have come to live in a new universe that could be described as metacinematic. His conception of images implies a new kind of camera consciousness, one that determines our perceptions and sense of selves.
