This paper critically examines Deleuzian concepts on the reception of art\u00e2\u20ac\u201di.e. sensation, affection, and affect\u00e2\u20ac\u201dand explores their applicability to subtle and seemingly neutral/boring/deadpan works. Philosophers including Barthes and Ranci\u00c3\u00a8re addressed the challenge of engaging with images in postmodernity by asking what happens when we encounter a yawn rather than a scream, or, in the case of Barthes, what happens when a scream makes us yawn? With the existence of already shocking photographs in mass culture, and with the end of the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153shock of the new,\u00e2\u20ac Barthes sought aesthetic redemption in the punctum rather than the studium. Heidegger, in The Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics, looks at boredom itself as a "fundamental attunement" that needed to be absorbed and engaged with directly, rather than escaped from. Using Deleuze's example of "Pierre and Paul" in his lectures on Spinoza's concept of "affectio" (affection) and "affectus" (affect), this paper seeks to draw out some of the conceptual limitations in Deleuzian notions of sensation, affection, and affect in dealing with understated or purposely boring works, and proposes an understanding of these concepts in a less fixed and instantiated manner, and more as slower unravellings that grow, fade, or linger."},{"label":"dcterms.available","value":"2017-09-20T16:51:01Z"},{"label":"dcterms.contributor","value":"Casey, Edward S"},{"label":"dcterms.creator","value":"Macagba, Jonathan Reyes"},{"label":"dcterms.dateAccepted","value":"2017-09-20T16:51:01Z"},{"label":"dcterms.dateSubmitted","value":"2017-09-20T16:51:01Z"},{"label":"dcterms.description","value":"Department of Art History and Criticism"},{"label":"dcterms.extent","value":"27 pg."},{"label":"dcterms.format","value":"Application/PDF"},{"label":"dcterms.identifier","value":"http://hdl.handle.net/11401/76704"},{"label":"dcterms.issued","value":"2017-05-01"},{"label":"dcterms.language","value":"en_US"},{"label":"dcterms.provenance","value":"Made available in DSpace on 2017-09-20T16:51:01Z (GMT).
