Os autorretratos produzidos através de dispositivos digitais circulam nas redes sociais configurando um novo gênero fotográfico que são as selfies. Dos autorretratos do século XIX ao regime visual da pós-fotografia estas imagens certificam a presença das pessoas nos acontecimentos. Entender a estrutura rizomática do Instagram, as questões estéticas de construção de sentidos e a forma de visibilidade vinculada a sociedade de controle possibilita discutir a fotografia algorítmica que tem instruções e intencionalidades definidas para a vigilância das pessoas pela produção imagética.
Esta bela obra é fruto da efervescência de ideias, inovações e afetos que o GRUPEG proporciona. Traz um recorte de pesquisas que, produzidas de forma colaborativa e dialogada, torna possível avanços na ciência, nas pesquisas que envolvem a formação inicial e continuada de professores de Geografia e, ainda, no fazer docente que se efetiva tanto na educação escolar, quanto nas práticas e experiências do PIBID e da Residência Pedagógica.

More than twenty years ago, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations contributed to the growing recognition of the role of pollination in agricultural production, with the publication of “The Pollination of Cultivated Plants in the Tropics”. Since that time, the appreciation of pollinators has grown, alongside the realization that we stand to lose them. But our knowledge and understanding of crop pollination, pollinator biology, and best management practices has also expanded over this time. This volume is the second of two “compendiums for practitioners”, sharing expert knowledge on all dimensions of crop pollination in both temperate and tropical zones. The focus in this second volume is on management, study and research tools and techniques.

While the popular press has criticized movie remakes as signs of Hollywood's collective lack of imagination, the essays in Dead Ringers reveal the centrality and staying power of remakes as a formative genre in filmmaking. The contributors show that the practice of remaking films dates back to the origins of cinema and the evolution of film markets. In fact, remakes were never so prevalent as during the Classic Hollywood period, when filmmaking had achieved its greatest degree of industrialization, and they continue to play a crucial role in the development of film genres generally. Offering a variety of historical, commercial, theoretical, and cultural perspectives on the remake, Dead Ringers is a valuable resource for students of film history and theory, as well as those interested in the cultural politics of the late twentieth century.
By analysing the work of seven classic film stars including Cary Grant and Marlene Dietrich, the author explores the techniques and theory of acting for the big screen.
Media forms and genres are proliferating as never before, from movies, computer games and iPods to video games and wireless phones. This essay collection by recognized scholars, practitioners and non-academic writers opens discussion in exciting new directions.
This title was originally published in 1998. Play It Again, Sam is a timely investigation of a topic that until now has received almost no critical attention in film and cultural studies: the cinematic remake. As cinema enters its second century, more remakes are appearing than ever before, and these writers consider the full range: Hollywood films that have been recycled by Hollywood, such as The Jazz Singer, Cape Fear, and Robin Hood; foreign films including Breathless; and Three Men and a Baby, which Hollywood has reworked for American audiences; and foreign films based on American works, among them Yugoslav director Emir Kusturica's Time of the Gypsies, which is a "makeover" of Coppola's...
