Film manifestos and global cinema cultures : a critical anthology / [edited by] Scott MacKenzie Berkeley London: University of California Press, 2014.
Call No: 62 FILAuthor: MacKenzie, Scott (ed.) Source: USPlace: Berkeley LondonPublisher: University of California PressPubDate: 2014PhysDes: xxi, 651 p. ; 26 cmSubject: AVANT-GARDE FILMS ; CONSTRUCTIVISM ; SURREALISM AND THE CINEMA ; STRUCTURALISM ; NOUVELLE VAGUE ; IMPERIALISM AND THE CINEMA ; GENDER AND THE CINEMA ; FEMINISM AND THE CINEMA ; PORNOGRAPHY AND THE CINEMA ; DOCUMENTARY FILMS ; DOCUMENTARIES ; PHILOSOPHY AND THE CINEMA ; WORLD CINEMA ; LATIN AMERICAN COUNTRIES ; AESTHETICS ; HOLLYWOOD ; ARCHIVES & INSTITUTES, FILM Summary: Film Manifestoes and Global Cinema Cultures is the first book to collect manifestoes from the global history of cinema, providing the first historical and theoretical account of the role played by film manifestos in filmmaking and film culture. Focussing equally on political and aesthetic manifestoes, Scott MacKenzie uncovers a neglected, yet nevertheless central history of the cinema, exploring a series of documents that postulate ways in which to re-imagine the cinema and, in the process, re-imagine the world.
This volume collects the major European “waves” and figures (Eisenstein, Truffaut, Bergman, Free Cinema, Oberhausen, Dogme ‘95); Latin American Third Cinemas (Birri, Sanjinés, Espinosa, Solanas); radical art and the avant-garde (Buñuel, Brakhage, Deren, Mekas, Ono, Sanborn); and world cinemas (Iimura, Makhmalbaf, Sembene, Sen). It also contains previously untranslated manifestos co-written by figures including Bollaín, Debord, Hermosillo, Isou, Kieslowski, Painlevé, Straub, and many others. Thematic sections address documentary cinema, aesthetics, feminist and queer film cultures, pornography, film archives, Hollywood, and film and digital media. Also included are texts traditionally left out of the film manifestos canon, such as the Motion Picture Production Code and Pius XI's Vigilanti Cura, which nevertheless played a central role in film culture. -- extract taken from the back of the bookNotes: Includes index -- Includes bibliographical references and index.ISSN: 9780520276741Contents: Introduction. “An Invention without a Future” -- 1.

Chanan's thematic approach takes in topics such as the documentary before documentary, how documentary film language works, the veracity of the image, the construction of the soundtrack, the migration of documentary to television, political documentary, censorship, first-person film making, and the relation of the archives to history and memory. Drawing on examples of documentary cinema in Japan, Iran, and Latin America as well as Europe and the USA, Chanan argues that documentary provides a crucial public space in which ideas are debated, opinion is formed and those in authority are held to account.

Theorizing digital cultural heritage : a critical discourse / edited by Fiona Cameron & Sarah Kenderdine Cambridge, Mass: MIT Press, 2006.
Call No: 110-4 THE; NEW HOLDINGS SHELVESAuthor: Cameron, Fiona ; Kenderdine, Sarah Source: USPlace: Cambridge, MassPublisher: MIT PressPubDate: 2006PhysDes: x, 465 p. : ill. ; 24 cmSubject: DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY ; ARCHIVES & INSTITUTES, FILM Summary: "In Theorizing Digital Cultural Heritage, experts offer a critical and theoretical appraisal of the uses of digital media by cultural heritage institutions. Previous discussions of cultural heritage and digital technology have left the subject largely unmapped in terms of critical theory; the essays in this volume offer this long-missing perspective on the challenges of using digital media in the research, preservation, management, interpretation, and representation of cultural heritage. The contributors--scholars and practitioners from a range of relevant disciplines--ground theory in practice, considering how digital technology might be used to transform institutional cultures, methods, and relationships with audiences. The contributors examine the relationship between material and digital objects in collections of art and indigenous artifacts; the implications of digital technology for knowledge creation, documentation, and the concept of authority; and the possibilities for "virtual cultural heritage"--the preservation and interpretation of cultural and natural heritage through real-time, immersive, and interactive techniques. The essays in Theorizing Digital Cultural Heritage will serve as a resource for professionals, academics, and students in all fields of cultural heritage, including museums, libraries, galleries, archives, and archaeology, as well as those in education and information technology. The range of issues considered and the diverse disciplines and viewpoints represented point to new directions for an emerging field."Notes: Formerly CIP.; Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9780262033534Contents: 1.
