Visualizing Film History

Though many archival digital objects were not "born digital," film archives are now becoming important resources for digital scholarship as a consequence of digitization.

Visualizing Film History is an accessible introduction to archive-based digital scholarship in film and media studies and beyond. With a combined focus on the history of film historiography, archiving, and recent digital scholarship—covering a period from the "first wave" ...

Over the last two decades, discoveries made in the field of cognitive neuroscience have begun to permeate humanities and social sciences. This special issue of Cinéma & Cie focuses on major conceptual and epistemological arguments arising from the dialogue between audiovisual studies and neurosciences. In the context of this intersection, Neurofilmology is an interdisciplinary research program that arises at the encounter between two models of viewer: theviewer-as-mind (deriving from a cognitive/analytical approach) and the viewer-as-body (typical of the phenomenological/continental approach). Accordingly, Neurofilmology focuses on the viewer-as-organism, by investigating with both empirical and speculative epistemological tools the subject of audiovisual experience, postulated as embodied, embedded, enacted, extended, emerging, affective, and relational.

Le cinéma dans l'œil du collectionneur

L’histoire du cinéma n’existerait pas sans les collectionneurs. Que ce soit par leur travail de collecte pionnier ou par leur défense passionnée de pans oubliés de la production cinématographique mondiale, leur influence durable se fait sentir tant sur le terrain que par leurs méthodes pour appréhender l’histoire des images animées. Leur contribution est toutefois restée dans l’ombre des travaux menés dans les institutions universitaires et archivistiques jusqu’à ce qu’un intérêt nouveau pour les questions relatives aux archives, à l’archéologie des médias et à l’histoire des techniques jette la lumière sur l’importance de leurs activités. Cet ouvrage, qu...

Audiovisuelle Rhetorik als politische Intervention

Dieses Buch plädiert für die Relevanz von Filmanalyse und Medienreflexion in der interdisziplinären Untersuchung gesellschaftlicher Kommunikation. Angesichts der Präsenz audiovisueller Positionierungen und ihres Einflusses auf politische Diskurse steht eine spezifische Erfahrung im Fokus: Filme und Videos erheben oder provozieren Einspruch. Durch das Widersprechen prägen sie die Wahrnehmung politischer Krisen – vom Kinodokumentarfilm zu Massakern der 1960er Jahre in Indonesien über Spielfilme in Zeiten von #BlackLivesMatter und einer ‘alternativen rechten’ Mobilisierung anlässlich der Finanzkrise in den USA bis hin zu politischer Kommunikation zur Klimakrise und dem Regierungsha...
