[Commlist] Studies in South Asian Film & Media 15.1 published (Special Issue: ‘Media Studies and the Contemporary’)

Intellect is pleased to announce that Studies in South Asian Film & 
Media 15.1 is out now.


Special Issue: ‘Media Studies and the Contemporary’


We can think of two broad ways of theorizing the media-saturated texture 
of our times. One would be to approach the contemporary as an era of 
increased mediatization of all domains of life, including the 
biological. The second approach, which the readers will discern in the 
essays in this Special Issue on ‘Media Studies and the Contemporary’, is 
to privilege the category of the contemporary by paying attention to the 
domain of media cultures as the site that bears the most visible signs 
of the transitions unfolding in conditions of life today. The essays in 
this volume propose a set of approaches which take seriously many of the 
media cultural forms that define the contemporary, without fetishizing 
media devices and their phenomenology.
