Abstract
Functions traditionally attributed to the intellectual or to the artist currently are perceptible across broad segments of society. Their appearance is facilitated by digital technologies in ways that trouble any remaining distinctions between ‘theory’ and ‘practice’ for film and media scholars, theorists and makers. ‘Critical Theory and Popular Education’ explores the relevance of the conceptualization of ‘theory’ offered in Barbara Christian's essay, ‘The Race for Theory’, to a consideration of a range of responses to a dispersal of the intellectual function throughout society and argues that approaching new media technologies and industries themselves as ‘theory’ and modes of theorizing might contribute to our understandings of current configurations of knowledge and power.
