Event overview
Visual Cultures guest lecture series.
Taking the example of film-philosophy as its starting point, this paper will enquire into the conditions by which a (visual) non-philosophical source of thought can be deemed a new form of philosophy without simultaneously being reduced to current (non-visual) forms of philosophical thought. Can philosophy ever exist in the ‘wild’, as Jacques Rancière claims, or must it always be ‘factory farmed’ within the walls of the academy?
John Mullarkey teaches at the University of Dundee, specialising in European Philosophy, Film and Philosophy, Metaphysics, and Non-Philosophy.
*Followed by drinks reception in 312 to launch new book, Refractions of Reality: Philosophy and the Moving Image (Palgrave, 2008)
