The New York Times has installed *Visual Studies*, a series that explores how images move through and shape culture.

Great to see this kind of public attention! Hopefully the academic field with its research traditions is reflected in future contributions too.

It is spring 2025 and the book is today officially out ✨💫

I hope it will be useful to those of you who are interested in exploring how our ways of seeing impact on how we relate to each other, our selves, and the various worlds we inhabit.

Today we discuss with the filmmakers of Kukaan ei katso sinua silmiin (No one looks you into the eyes) loneliness, camera-mediated sociality and the life around us that is only visible mediated via technologies. Incl screening of the film!
