The relationship between psychoanalysis and the moving image is in a period of transition. The last decade has seen a proliferation of exciting scholarship and experimentation around the notion of film and spectator as feeling, playing, transforming partners in an affect-laden dance of psychic, emotional and potentially politicizable growth. Shifting emphasis away from established Lacanian paradigms of voyeurism, lack, and desiring identification, growing numbers of scholars are turning to the work of object-relations analysts in order to provide an account of the filmic encounter and the internalized moving image as a living source of subjective and relational metamorphosis.
This one-day conference brings together academics, psychotherapists and artists working on media, psychoanalysis and cultural transformation from a broadly object-relations perspective. Considering what an awareness of object-relations may bring to the discussion of the moving image and the transforming spectator, papers address a wide array of theorists (including Bion, Bollas, Benjamin, Bowlby, Klein, Milner and Winnicott), concerns, and filmic materials. The day concludes with a response by Professor Laura Mulvey, a wine & baguette buffet, and the screening of two films, introduced by the conference organisers Andrew Asibong and Amber Jacobs: Curds and Whey (Jacobs & Hon, 2013) and The Brood (Cronenberg, 1979).
