OverviewAs the spread of knowledge and even theory becomes an increasingly audiovisual affair, how can philosophy adapt in ways that develop - rather than dilute - philosophical rigor and specificity? How can philosophy harness the potential of audiovisual media - being more formally multidimensional than text-only - to conceptualize with greater precision and depth? This book presents a theory of formal development of philosophy in this regard: a theory of cinecepts. While spanning film, media, art, and critical theories as well as philosophy, this study proceeds mainly through a close reimagination of the work of Gilles Deleuze, which allows for a merging of what he kept separated: filmic thinking and philosophical conceptualization. Jean-Luc Godard & Anne-Marie Mieville's underexplored 1970s Sonimage works are also the subject of extensive examination, along with critical considerations of a contemporary era of academic video essays and phenomena like philosophy channels on YouTube.

Table of ContentsReviews"This book closely examines the interconnections between cinema and philosophy; in line with, but also moving beyond Deleuze. The words ""cinema"" and ""concepts"" are here tightly bound up to shape a new theoretical development of audio-visual philosophy. It comes close to a specific version of what I have called ""Image-Thinking"". – Mieke Bal, author of Image-Thinking: Artmaking as Cultural Analysis" Author InformationJakob A.
