\nAbout the book
\nThe pioneers of what has been labelled New Queer Cinema laid the foundation for a Queer Post-Cinema &mdash\; a movement in which artists experiment with technology in innovative ways. Through original readings of Todd Haynes&rsquo\;s early films\, Sharon Hayes and Yael Bartana&rsquo\;s videos and installations\, Su Friedrich&rsquo\;s digital video Seeing Red\, Charlie Prodgers&rsquo\;s iPhone film Bridgit\, and Claire Denis&rsquo\;s science-fiction film Highlife\, this monograph shows how artists are creating a new form of resistance in the time of the digital image and generative AI.
