This text aims to create a site between academic scholarship and other forms, modes and genres of writing including essays in imaging, photography and other textual forms. Art is viewed as both presentation and re-presentation of theory: produced in the interface between these two forms of address.

The edges between traditionally separate categories are brought into tension to provide a site where a various views and practices can be realized.
