- This book is based on work going back to AHRC funded research in video archiving from 2001, including three Australia Research Council grants on screens (2007-9 and 2009-14) and on digital visual technology (2008-10), plus 13 years of work on histories of pigments, printmaking, photography and electronic transmission. The data required extensive historical and critical interpretation to produce a persuasive and readable account which includes extensive correlation with the history of physical and retinal optics. None of the contributing studies have been submitted to REF. Approximately 150,000 words, plus 22 pages of references.
