MUSIC VIDEOS TO AUDIOVISUALS
The music video shows post-cinema as more than visual effects but as new sound-image interactions. MTV “industrialized” the notion of visuals promoting music in the early 1980s.

POST-CINEMATIC AFFECT AND REALITY SHOWS
Affect is fundamental, non-conscious, asubjective or presubjective, assignifying, unqualified, and intense, says Steven Shaviro (Denson & Leyda, 2016).

It is this frenetic pace employed by movies such as this shoot-out scene in Domino (2005) that in Stork’s words – “…doesn’t seduce you…
