- This interdisciplinary monograph (pp. 328; 126,000 words) is the result of six years of research, much of it conducted in archives in Argentina, Spain, and the UK. It is the first academic book to map the production, distribution and consumption of post-2000 Argentine experimental video - including the works of 462 artists and more than 1,200 video-art pieces. Each of its seven sections is equivalent to a journal article, and together with a 50-page introduction they demonstrate that experimental film and video are vital aspects of Argentine culture.

- English abstract
- This monograph is one of the first academic studies to map the production, distribution and consumption of post-2000 Argentine experimental video. It employs an empirical base and interdisciplinary approach across Literature, Film Studies, Visual Arts, Media and Communication to define experimental video as a form of language. The book brings together, for the first time, a corpus of works that share similar aesthetic, production and consumption strategies, bridging disciplinary and sector practice gaps. It thereby identifies a distinct material and cultural approach and highlights the overlooked significance of a materialist approach to key audio-visual Argentine productions
