Course Site for Future Cinema 1 (and sometimes Future Cinema 2: Applied Theory) at York University, Canada
hi everyone – as promised I’ve added an IMAA category to allow for ongoing discussion… I’ve acfually made it the default category. It would be great to post meeting notes here for those of us unable to attend. notes from sara Diamond talk would be good, too. I may have some money left in my SSHRC grant for dissemination — this could help with the expense of putting on an exhibition sometime in April or?

This course examines the shift from traditional cinematic spectacle to works probing the frontiers of interactive, performative, and networked media. Drawing upon a broad range of scholarship, including film theory, communication studies, cultural studies and new media theory, the course will consider how digital technologies are transforming the semiotic fabric of contemporary visual culture. Our focus will be on the phenomenon Gene Youngblood described three decades ago as expanded cinema an explosion of the frame outward towards immersive, interactive and interconnected (i.e., environmental) forms of culture.
