Thinking outside the black box: The apparatus between art and science

(2019) Thinking outside the black box: The apparatus between art and science. PhD by Creative Works, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

In the dominant mode of art discourse the apparatus features as a blind spot. It is most often treated as an indexical trace of the image, as a readable text or conversely an unreadable formal gesture. This practice-led research draws on conceptions of the apparatus developed in the philosophy of science and technology. In doing so, it offers a new approach to understanding the apparatus in practice by foregrounding the material presence of technologies, their 'performative agency' and the perceptual dimensions of spectatorship.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
