Visual Perception & Point-of-view in Post-cinema

Cinema is tansforming into a new media form defined as 'post-cinematic'. This transition indicates how existing cinema is expanding in relation to the form of films, various expressions of subjectivity, and the reconstruction of the senses. This study examines the perception of post-cinema based on digital technology. Currently, cinema is produced without a 'camera-eye'. Nonetheless, it provides a better visual experience than optical cameras. Images produced without a 'camera-eye' transform the visual experience through complex technological mediation. Affect is related to the reconstruction of sensations, is epistemologically uncertain, and is real and physical. Therefore, our sensory ratios may be reorganized. Post-cinematic images provide posthuman vision. The free, ghostly, crazy gaze of the camera is different from that of the existing human vision. This vision is experienced as an affect rather than perceived. However, this affect is also related to perception and leads to changes in perception. Discussions by Paul Virilio, Walter Benjamin, and Mark Hansen show us how we can reconstruct visual perception through affect in the post-cinema era.
