Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- I artikeln diskuteras hur det surrealistiska konceptet le cadavre exquis, kroppar som byggs upp av slumpartade element, används i bilderböcker och i mekaniska böcker för barn. Med utgångspunkt i ett urval av bilderböcker som bygger på cadavre exquis-leken, kommer jag att diskutera vad som kännetecknar motivet och vad det finns för berättartekniska konventioner inom genren. Både den verbala och visuella informationen struktureras i dessa böcker genom en slumpartad kombination av boksidans innehåll. Utöver tematiken kring upptäckandet och skapandet av nya fantastiska varelser, diskuteras läsarens deltagande som medskapare för berättelserna. Hur formas innehållet i dessa bilderböcker och vad kännetecknar berättelsernas temporalitet? Bläddringen är en central motor för bilderbokens berättande, men i dessa böcker medför bladvändningen också ett moment av slump, som såväl roar som skapar spänning. Motivet med de hybridiska kropparna pekar på den potential som finns i det ännu oupptäckta, i att visualisera eller skapa någonting tidigare okänt, och innefattar därmed en dröm utöver vardagen, en dröm om okända ting och varelser.

After the glitch : Photographic friction in Lisa Tan's Dodge and/or Burn

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article aims to analyse how a photographic interaction, complicated by technical and bodily disruption, entails a productive glitch in the form of systemic friction. The analysis is grounded in artist Lisa Tan’s exhibition Dodge and/or Burn in Stockholm (2023–24), with a focus on a central video work. The exhibition’s theme of crisis and transformation guides the analysis within a qualitative framework informed by an art historical methodology of semiotics and phenomenology combined with media and disability studies. This interdisciplinary perspective organizes an account anchored in the artwork’s initial capture and exhibition display. As the glitch is redefined, from a technical error to an embodied experience of systemic friction, the article offers an innovative take on how both photography and glitch can be conceptualized and deployed. As a result, the glitch emerges as a tool to address today’s dominant sociotechnical systems and their visual underpinnings.

Audiovisual Translation Norms and Guidelines
- 2020

Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Norms for audiovisual translation (AVT) regulate the ways in which AVT is carried out. These norms develop over time in response to developments in society and technology, and vary in strength from idiosyncrasies to rules. Norms can be either explicit and codified, as those found in guidelines and textbooks, or implicit and based on translation practice. Descriptive research is carried out in order to uncover the latter kind of norms. Guidelines are used to introduce newcomers to AVT, as reference works, and as standards for quality assessment. Currently, a new global prescriptive set of norms are challenging old local norms, while at the same time, traditional norms are challenged by experimental and cognitive research into what viewers really prefer.

Narrowing Dynastic Rule : Models of Governance, Social Conflict and the Hobbesian Bargain in Early Modern Sweden (1560-1718)

Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- When King Charles XII died in 1718, there was no legitimate successor to the throne. Why was this? The explanation that is explored in this contribution is to be found in the foundation of the royal dynasty he belonged to, the Palatinate dynasty (1654–1720). This dynasty was from the beginning designed to be limited to the male offspring of Charles X Gustav, and not to any of his close relatives. Sweden had experienced multiple conflicts between members of the dynasty during the reign of the house of Vasa (in the period 1560–1621), and the appropriate solution seemed to be to limit the royal dynasty to a minimum. Even the brother of Charles X Gustav was excluded from the dynasty. I propose that the function of the members of the dynasty ‑ dynasty formation ‑ was closely connected to the models of governance ‑ state formation ‑ employed during three different periods: the dynastic-feudal model (c. 1560–1611/1625), during which royal dukes wielded great powers; the dynastic-oligarchic model (c.1611/1625–1675), in which members of the royal family and the upper crust of the aristocracy formed an oligarchy that ruled together with the monarchs through the Council of the Realm; the absolutist-meritocratic model (c. 1675–1718) in which merit and competence decided who assisted the absolute king in governing the realm, and other members of the royal family, as well as the aristocrats, were relegated to minor roles. In analysing how the historical experience of the civil strife fed into the dynasty formation, I use the political theory of Thomas Hobbes and the prospect theory of Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky. I hypothesise that the fear of civil war led the Swedish political actors to prefer a single strong power centre, in the form of the monarch, at the expense of other members of the dynasty. But the immense power and wealth accumulated by the aristocracy during the dynastic-oligarchic period led to different preferences among the nobility on the one hand, and the commoners on the other. The latter hoped that members of the Palatinate dynasty could help them upend the power of the aristocracy, while the former feared exactly this outcome. This conflict permeated the negotiations in 1649 and 1650, which resulted in the proclamation of Charles Gustav and his offspring as sole heirs to the throne during the rule of Queen Christina. He was not to wield any independent power until he was put on the throne—it was solemnly proclaimed that the realm was unified under one ruler: the Queen. During the minority of Charles X Gustav’s son Charles XI, there were conflicts caused by the claims of royal persons in the form of the child king’s uncle Adolf Johan and of Christina, who had abdicated. Their claims were firmly rejected by a unified political nation once they started to use the language of power: the Crown would remain united. They were both expressly excluded from the succession to the throne, further narrowing the scope of the dynasty. When Charles XI reached maturity, he put an end to the dynastic-oligarchic model and introduced absolutism. A somewhat surprising feature of his new model of governance was the refusal to use relatives in important positions. Thus, when the head of the royal house finally got the chance to put dynasty formation into practice himself, he opted for dynastic centralisation. I hypothesise that this was a feature of a new royal ideology in which all subjects were equal in the eyes of the supreme monarch. The fulfilment of the Hobbesian ideal thus paradoxically weakened the dynasty that was supposed to produce the sovereign rulers. This weakness ultimately led to the introduction of a constitutional regime after Charles XII’s death in which the monarchs were almost powerless.
