States of Emergency: Documentaries, Wars, Democracies Demobilizations: Anesthetics, Dreams, and Nightmares excerpt Bibliography

This excerpt from Patricia Zimmermann's chapter Demobilizations: Anesthetics, Dreams, and Nightmares examines documentary and video strategies that demobilize wartime imagery and reattach it to the senses; it argues that formal interventions and new technologies (video processing, computer effects, multichannel installations, optical printing) can resuscitate sensory experience and resist the anesthetizing of visuality. The text analyzes films and tapes including Listen to Britain (1942), Night and Fog (1955, Alain Resnais), Hiroshima-Nagasaki (1970; Barnouw et al.), Meta Mayan (Edin Velez, 1981), Smothering Dreams (Daniel Reeves, 1981), and Dreamkeeper (Philip Mallory Jones, 1989), and cites theorists Buck-Morss, Renov, Trinh T. Minh-ha, Bhabha, and Felman and Laub; published by University of Minnesota Press, 2000.
