Works by students of Lucerne School of Art and Design from December 2024 and 2023, focusing on question of embodiment and orientation in/through videographic methods.
Picking up on the introduction of Sara Ahmed’s book „Queer Phenomenology“ the students were asked to stage in their video notes and video essays an embodied encounter between them and their audiovisual material, lading – hopefully – to productive dis- and re-orientations.

Works by students of the reflect module „Intermediality I: Video Notes, VideoEssay“ December 2022, Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts
Video essay is thinking in audiovisual form. Instead of examining images and films in text form, in video essays the audiovisual material itself becomes an analytical tool. In this module we will learn about the potential of video essays and create our own video notes and video essays based on exemplary examples, joint exercises and text readings. In these essays, students research and examine foreign audiovisual material (found footage) by using their own filmic-artistic methods and place the material and its investigation in a scientific-theoretical-personal context.
