What Unfriended (2014) Teaches Us About Buffering

In this video lecture, we're going to examine the way that the film Unfriended makes us think about how we are affected by our habituated use of personal computers, the internet, and social media, especially the anxieties produced by buffering.

We'll look at Unfriended alongside Neta Alexander's article Rage Against the Machine: Buffering, Noise, and Perpetual Anxiety in the Age of Connected Viewing, which considers how our experience of buffering while consuming online media helps illustrate a range of issues about digital media in the 21st century.
