Reflexive

articles, I found Sharon Kaufman and Emily Wentzell’s to be the most intriguing arguments because they challenged my own surface level understanding of the issues they presented in a deeper context. I thought Kaufman’s article on “Medicare, Ethics, and Reflexive Longevity” provided a compelling argument on how “medicine materializes and problematizes time” (210, 2011). In a society where the prevalence of aging and the culturally and structurally “appropriate” treatment for aging is dependent…

I would stick to the reflexive mode as the central mode for Forbidden Lies$ because, the other Nichols’ mode of documentaries are not suitable to represent a documentary like Forbidden Lie$. But, I would include participatory mode as a sub-mode to compliment the reflexive mode in this documentary. Reflexive documentary is when a filmmaker constructs the representation of reality in a documentary and allow the viewers to question the actuality of the representation. Reflexive mode is the best…

contrived and theatrically constructed domain: a domain that only becomes comprehensible to us through Orlando’s instances of self-reflexive narration, through the omniscient narrator that privileges Orlando’s narrative perspective, and through a camera lens that constructs and emphasizes Orlando’s body as the starting and focal point of that narrative. From this highly self-reflexive narrative, we learn that Orlando recounts the story of an individual who experiences the world, as both an…

latter allows for thoughtful gestation and a deliberate application of critical thought. Reflexive and reflective decision making themselves (often labeled as System1 and System 2) are a function of psychology as described by Kahneman…

These phenomena coexist with the entrenchment of neoliberalism…

French New Wave Cinema during its time was something completely special and different for the world of films. Because of French New Wave it brought on a sense of realism that was never seen before and improvisation that was not considered possible for the cinema to create a film. So using examples from the films “Band of Outsiders” and “Faces” we can see not only the examples of what French New Wave so distinct but also its affects on cinema today. French New Wave itself was a movement based…

profoundly in the hands of filmmaker John Marshall who emerged as a self- reflexive, politicized filmmaker. John Marshall’s filmic practice transpired in difference from the former versions of documentary film as that of spectacle or science in a way that utilized the two, yet…

Fear of the unknown is one of the most basic traits shared by all humans. One unknown, that induces fear into most people, is what will happen at the end of time. Of course, science can answer this question in terms of the universe as a whole – the universe will continually expand, become colder, and human life will no longer be able to survive in the resulting desolate universe. However, most people do not fear this end as they will not live to see it. Instead, they fear what will happen to…

Following that is the conditioned stimulus which is the stimulus that is originally neutral but comes to elicit a reflexive response.
