# Questions for Caetlin Benson-Allott
2024-03-20
### General Questions
Styles of questions:
* This thing reminds me of that thing. What do you think about this connection? (e.g., Dark Knight -> Joker)
* Process & development: how does an abstract concept gets shaped into theory?
* Where do you see potentiality and limitations of a theoretical figure?
* Talk more about x: I want to hear more about a thing (e.g., Covid & material culture)
* The writing and diction of theory?
* How do you _do_ the theory you're arguing for?
* In _Oxford Handbook_, applying film theory to DV; vs. Kyle's intro re: the importance of film theory (last 2 sentences).
- What pitfalls do you see in bringing film theory to bear on social media? Digital, networked video?
* Limits of emptahy in _Oxford Handbook_: p. 455, Facebook, feedback loops: facile empathy.
Scott wants to add to these:
* What and who are you responding to?
* What's the dissatisfaction this is supposed to repair?
* What do you want people to get over?
* What's the historical (political, aesthetic) situation you're writing into? (Why this now? [then])
