B-roll

Our b-roll is the footage behind the footage. It presents the kind of thinking that goes into the making of our journal’s main production. The objective here is two-pronged. First, to get under the skin of the central concerns which inform the way that we think through the work of the journal. In doing this, we hope to draw out the negative space that animates the official corpus of Modern Horizons.  Second, we’d like to engage readers of the journal in more regular and open-ended conversation. While our main production takes the form of a more curated experience, here we will elaborate content that lies outside the frame of our conferences and issues. We have conceived the b-roll as supplementary material to be comprehended in concert with the ongoing program of Modern Horizons. In this way, we hope to stretch out the scale of our work’s reception, and to flesh out the deeper sensibilities which have continued to shape this work.
