Paul Atkinson lectures for the Communications and Writing
programme at Monash University. His research is broadly informed by
the work of the fin-de-siècle French philosopher Henri Bergson and his
writings on movement and time. Published articles explore a range of
topics including Bergson’s vitalism, comic books after 9/11, movement
and recognition, time in superhero comics, affect theory and temporal
aesthetics. He is currently working on a series of articles that explore
the relationship between processual theories of time, aesthetics and
narrative.
