MFJ Nos. 64, 65, & 69 Bundle
With this bundle, you will receive three MFJ volumes handpicked by our senior editor Grahame Weinbren at a discounted price.
The bundle contains:
MFJ 64 “Image Machines”
As MFJ reflects on its history, we also proceed into the future, in our continuing inquiry into artists’ cinema—the “image machine,” with and through personal vision. Questions of medium specificity have been supplanted by a kind of technical eclecticism. This new range of modalities, these “image machines,” require equally eclectic and agile work of critique. We offer a selection of texts in a range of formulations.
MFJ 65 “Architecture On Screen and Off”
No architecture is neutral: its history and the ideologies that drive that history are always inscribed on its surface, in however coded a form. Many of the contributions to this issue model different ways of attending to and deciphering such inscriptions, underscoring the importance of situating images within their expanded, architectural frames.
The issue also includes three texts about artist’s video of the 1970s and ‘80s. Each reveals different aspects of the period.
MFJ 69 “Deep Cuts”
This issue engages an impressive array of contemporary film and video practices marked by substantial formal, cultural, financial, and political differences. Yet the contributions that comprise this issue also interface in intriguing ways. The issue’s title, “Deep Cuts,” seeks to draw out thematic correspondences between these contributions, illuminating points of contact that emerge across a collection of reviews, articles, and conversations structured by recurring themes of music, montage, and obscurity, as well as experiences of intense and lasting violence (whether ecological, political, bodily, representational).
