Abstract
As a central aspect in the process of democratising science, communication is thought considering the strength of new forms to convey scientific contents. The proposed reflection approaches the self-sufficiency of audio-visual scientific writing with the emergence of the academic audio-visual essay. In order to understand images’ autonomy, as well as its ubiquity, dialectics and audio-visual montage applied to the construction and communication of knowledge, we bring considerations of Georges Didi-Huberman, Galvano Della Volpe and Walter Benjamin. We incorporate also the notions of Alberto Manguel on self-sufficient audio-visual composition as contemporary academic and scientific writing. With John Dewey, we recall the debate both on the democratisation’s ethical debate and the place of science in society.
