Course Site for Future Cinema 1 (and sometimes Future Cinema 2: Applied Theory) at York University, Canada
Hi everyone,
apologies for the short notice but as of TOMORROW, October 21st, the Future Cinema class will be meeting in the film dept. seminar, rm CFT 239.
For those of you who do not know the campus well, CFT is the building *attached* to our current building, GCFA. It’s a two minute walk. I’ll also post sign, but if you see a friend from our class, do give them the head’s up. thanks!

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.
