Remember, Repeat, Inhabit

Remember, Repeat, Inhabit looks at three questions in relation to the idea of the viewer:

• *What happens when one reads someone else's reading of someone else?
  What happens when something repeats itself in Kieslowski's work?
  Is there a possibility of an ontology of space?
• *The book attempts to understand the idea of 'viewing' from the inside, not simply as an ontological premise but definitely affected by it. Three differing contexts are looked at-a French madman's notion of the 'self', a Polish filmmaker's notion of the 'everyday' and an Indian performance artist's notion of 'memory'. Through these on-the-surface contrasting artists and texts, a particular idea of a 'viewer' emerges. This viewer is the key to an understanding of something almost elemental in the nature of the idea of 'viewing' in the contemporary context of twenty-first-century Delhi.
