Reflection, Staging and Documentary Film: The Monadic Camera-Subject

image of Reflection, Staging and Documentary Film: The Monadic Camera-Subject

Documentary processes the circumstance. The take reflects being-there in a particular mode of existence (the one), staging to a camera that coalesces individuations. Gathered, make (or series) with diverse functions of enunciation sustaining ensembles. The documentary structures a defining how audiovisual emission-ending () compose multiple styles of mise-en-scène (the epistemological; the recoiled voice; the interacting disposition; the reflexive auto-conscient; the sensuous touching). Documentary film can be at large with this ending, ‘body-touching’ a differential gap. The machinical is the myriad surface of reflecting communicating their agency through the visibility of empiricity.

Keywords: Camera-Monads ; Ethics ; Genealogy ; Individuations ; Mega-enunciator ; Mise-en-scène ; Reflecting ; Take-Circumstance
