In this paper I restrict my analysis to non-interactive media; there is much more to be said about the affective, didactic and political potentials of the different forms of interactive moving imagery emerging online and through computer gaming.

124. Shortly before I filmed the elephant polo an overheated and irate elephant threw off its riders and went on the rampage. This was captured on camera and the footage proved infectious and went viral via YouTube generating contagious affections (outrage, sympathy, shock, fear, awe) and prompting interventions from animal welfare groups.

137. This is not a comprehensive survey of the different ways in which elephants are evoked - indeed there are some notable absences, not least moving images of elephants as a source of horror and fear that could be produced by those on the receiving end of human-elephant conflict. Unfortunately I was unable to source these. Furthermore, it is important to note that most of the moving images referenced here employ more than one affective logic.
