Philosophical Investigation through Videographic Outputs and Techniques

Objective

"PIVOT (Philosophical Investigation through Videographic Outputs and Techniques) addresses philosophy's entrenched scriptocentric paradigm by pioneering the systematic integration of audiovisual media as legitimate instruments for philosophical enquiry. Despite broad scholarly consensus acknowledging the profound impact of digital technologies, philosophical practice continues to prioritise text-based methods, limiting the discipline's relevance and communicative potential. Responding to this critical epistemological gap, PIVOT develops an innovative multimodal research framework, drawing on and synthesising diverse philosophical media theories into a cohesive approach. By actively engaging philosophers in audiovisual authorship, the project implements a transformative ""authorial turn"" within film philosophy, shifting the philosophical role from passive spectatorship towards active multimedia production. Moreover, PIVOT significantly expands the scope of videographic criticism beyond its disciplinary confines, establishing rigorous, discipline-specific peer-review standards for philosophical video essays. Methodologically, the project combines extensive textual analysis and experimental audiovisual production, resulting in original scholarly outputs that exemplify the methodological viability of audiovisual philosophy. Additionally, through structured meta-philosophical reflection, the project critically examines the epistemological implications and innovative potential of multimodal research methodologies. Ultimately, PIVOT not only reshapes contemporary philosophical practice but also provides a scalable model, fostering broader interdisciplinary applicability and enhancing philosophy's pedagogical strategies and societal resonance."
