| Abstract | "In this original book, Maria Walsh contends that neo-liberalism has created a world of precarity, in which human beings are expendable products. Even artists, who believed themselves to be separate from commercialism have found themselves labelled as commodities whose work is marketed for financial gain. In order to process this trauma, Walsh identifies several moving-image artists whose work performs therapeutic techniques such as REBT (Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy) and VRET (Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy) that allows viewers to acknowledge and surmount the cases of depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder that precarity has wrought upon modern life"-- Provided by publisher. |
