Flickering Affects, Su Ballard
Faculty of Creative Arts - Papers (Archive)
All digital work is made and viewed in the glow of the flicker: the image moves, our eyes move, our body enters into some digital space.

This paper discusses three installation works by New Zealand artists informed by digital practice. I argue that an affective viewing experience can be examined through the semantics of the flicker.
