Description
Digital Encounters explores how we engage with digital moving images in various art forms. Aylish Wood examines the ways in which viewers interact with digital effects cinema, games, and time-based installations, revealing how technologies shape our experience of these story-worlds and game spaces. By considering examples from different media, including animation, cinema, and installation art, Wood argues that technologies alter human engagement, distributing our attention across a network of images and objects. This study offers insights into the ways in which we organize and decode the vast amount of visual material we are exposed to daily. Wood's analysis sheds light on the impact of digital technologies on our perception and understanding of digital moving images, making this book an interesting read for those interested in the intersection of technology and art.
