Seenography brings together contemporary performance perspectives on the meaning of visual encounters. Whilst a shared thematic interest in traditional performance formats holds the collection together, the topical engagements of the contributors have critical implications for issues of wider social concern. These matters of interest include the perceptual effects of re-mediation, the activity of objects and the challenge of affecting prevalent, anthropocentric, outlooks. The fresh understandings of seeing, which subsequently emerge, re-engage academia’s ‘visual turn’ with the affects of the contact and resonance that occurs between perceivers and the things they perceive. In this sense, the book’s performance-led collection makes a timely contribution to the field of visual studies: it coming at a moment when a longstanding faith in the subjective nature of seeing is beginning to be disturbed by a renewed interest in aesthetic theories of perception.
