The book "PostHorror Art Genre and Cultural Elevation" by David Church is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between art, technology, and society in the 21st century. The author argues that the traditional notion of horror as a genre is no longer sufficient to capture the complexities of our current cultural landscape, and instead proposes a new concept of "PostHorror" - a postmodern blend of horror and art that reflects the evolving nature of technology and its impact on our lives. The book begins with an examination of the historical context of horror as a literary and cinematic genre, tracing its origins and evolution over time. The author then delves into the ways in which technology has influenced the development of horror, from the early days of silent films to the current era of virtual reality and artificial intelligence. This section serves as a foundation for understanding the role of technology in shaping our cultural narratives and the ways in which it has influenced our perceptions of fear and the unknown. Next, the author turns to the concept of PostHorror, positing that this new genre represents a more accurate reflection of the contemporary cultural landscape. PostHorror combines elements of horror, science fiction, and fantasy to create a unique and unsettling experience for audiences.
Книга Дэвида Чёрча «PostHorror Art Genre and Cultural Elevation» (Жанр искусства и культурное возвышение ПостХоррора) - это пробное исследование отношений между искусством, технологиями и обществом в XXI веке. Автор утверждает, что традиционного представления о хорроре как о жанре уже недостаточно, чтобы уловить сложности нашего нынешнего культурного ландшафта, и вместо этого предлагает новую концепцию «PostHorror» - постмодернистского сочетания ужасов и искусства, которое отражает эволюционирующую природу технологий и их влияние на нашу жизнь. Книга начинается с рассмотрения исторического контекста ужасов как литературного и кинематографического жанра, прослеживания его истоков и эволюции во времени. Затем автор углубляется в то, как технологии повлияли на развитие хоррора, начиная с первых дней немого кино и заканчивая нынешней эпохой виртуальной реальности и искусственного интеллекта. Этот раздел служит основой для понимания роли технологий в формировании наших культурных нарративов и способов, которыми они влияют на наше восприятие страха и неизвестного. Далее автор обращается к концепции PostHorror, утверждая, что этот новый жанр представляет собой более точное отражение современного культурного ландшафта. PostHorror сочетает в себе элементы ужасов, научной фантастики и фэнтези, создавая уникальный и тревожный опыт для аудитории.
