Work

LACONIA: 1,200 Tweets on Film

Tupitsyn's most recent book of film criticism, LACONIA: 1,200 Tweets on Film, was written entirely on Twitter between the years 2009–2010, and was subsequently published as a print book by Zer0 Books[3] in 2011. LACONIA: 1,200 Tweets on Film uses social media to explore the changing ways that we consume and construct narrative in the 21st century.[4][5][6][7][8]

Love Sounds

The final installment of an immaterial trilogy that began in 2011, Love Sounds (2015), is a 24 hour audio history and essay of love in cinema that dematerializes cinema’s visual legacy and reconstitutes it as an all-tonal history of critical listening.[9][10][11][12]
