We are delighted to announce that A Woman on the Internet (or, The Eternal Scream) will be featured at MMF MMXXII
Jamie Janković’s new ambitious video work is making its debut at MMF.
A Woman on the Internet (or, The Eternal Scream) is a filmic response to Lynn Hershman Leeson’s text, Romancing the Anti-body (1995), exploring the jarring juxtapositions of friction, toxicity, joy and liberation that trans people, queers and femmes experience when playing as their own custom character creations in video game spaces.
Jamie Janković is a London-based filmmaker and video artist whose practice focuses on the dynamics of gender within video game worlds: in previous works, Janković has investigated the ways in which men are socially conditioned to their cultural model by visual media and explored through found footage technique how mainstream U.S. horror and sci-fi genres police masculinity through narrative and representation.
We featured Jamie’s work in 2021 as part of VRAL.
