Connected, or What it means to live in the network society / Steven Shaviro Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 2003.
Call No: 735.1 SHAAuthor: Shaviro, Steven Source: USPlace: MinneapolisPublisher: University of Minnesota PressPubDate: 2003PhysDes: xiii, 289 p. ; 22 cmSeries: Electronic Mediations ; v. 9Subject: VIDEODROME (CN, David Cronenberg, 1983) ; NEW ROSE HOTEL (US, Abel Ferrara, 1998) ; ALPHAVILLE (FR, Jean-Luc Godard, 1965) ; SPACE IS THE PLACE (US, Sun Ra,1972) ; MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH, THE (UK, Nicholas Roeg, 1976) ; DAWN OF THE DEAD (US, George A.

The result is that science fiction provides the most useful social theory, the only form that manages to be as radical as reality itself. Original and compelling, Connected shows how the continual experimentation of science fiction, like science and technology themselves, conjures the invisible social and economic forces that surround us." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes notes, bibliographical references, filmography and index.ISBN: 0816643636Donation: Adrian Miles

"Even the old dude is cool!" : William Burroughs on the wheels of steel and the silver screen / Simon Strong Place of publication not identified: The LedaTape Organisation, October 2013.
Call No: 81BUR STRAuthor: Strong, Simon Source: USPlace: Place of publication not identifiedPublisher: The LedaTape OrganisationPubDate: October 2013PhysDes: 120 pages: illustrations (black and white, and colour), maps (colour) ; 24 cmSubject: WRITERS IN FILMS ; LITERATURE AND THE CINEMA ; BURROUGHS, WILLIAM Summary: It's a searing indictment of contemporary publishing that the first full-length survey of WSB's influential intrusions into the fields of film and music must come from the pen of the world's most obscure and frustrating experimental novelist. Boasting more than 323 items, this uh idiosyncratic survey is as comprehensive and insightful as it is undisciplined and incoherent, all of which qualities Strong appears to regard as cardinal virtues. If his self-designated mission is to somehow undermine the canon, his inspiration appears to be drawn from the charge of the Light Brigade. Nevertheless, even the most ardent Burroughs scholar will find something new here, even if it's just been made up for funty laff value. Nice try pal. -- BOOK BLURBISBN: 9780992302108Donation: donated by Simon Strong, 2014Contents: Preface -- Introduction -- Bibliography -- Legend -- Chronology -- Posthumous releases -- How to read the cards -- The cards -- Index by type -- Index of creators -- Index of titles -- About the author

Paris Hollywood : writings on film / Peter Wollen London ; New York: Verso, 2002.
Call No: 67(04) WOLAuthor: Wollen, Peter Source: UK/USPlace: London ; New YorkPublisher: VersoPubDate: 2002PhysDes: vi, 314 p. ; 21 cmSubject: ARCHITECTURE IN FILMS ; DIRECTORS ; FILM ; THEORY ; MOVEMENTS IN FILM HISTORY ; MOVEMENTS AND STYLES IN FILM HISTORY ; BURROUGHS, WILLIAM ; EGGELING, VIKING ; GODARD, JEAN-LUC ; HAWKS, HOWARD ; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED ; ROUCH, JEAN ; BLADE RUNNER (US, Ridley Scott, 1982) ; BLADE RUNNER: THE DIRECTOR'S CUT (US, Ridley Scott, 1982) ; FREUD (US, John Huston, 1962) ; RULES OF THE GAME, THE (FR, Jean Renoir, 1939) ; REGLE DU JEU, LA (FR, Jean Renoir, 1939) Summary: "In this new collection of essays on the cinema, all written over the last ten years, Peter Wollen explores an extraordinarily wide range of topics, stretching from an analysis of time in film and video art to a study of Riff-Raff Realism in British film. Provocative essays discuss the work both of established auteur directors such as Howard Hawks and Alfred Hitchcock as well as the filmmaking careers of such experimental moviemakers as William Burroughs and Viking Eggeling, the dadaist pioneer of abstract film. The collection also includes fascinating studies of a number of film classics, such as John Huston's Freud, Jean Renoir's Rules of the Game and Ridley Scott's Blade Runner.".
"Paris Hollywood suggests new approaches to thinking about film and many unexpected connections between film studies and the history of such strangely related activities as espionage, psychoanalysis, dance, architecture, anthropology, Stalinism, love of speed and digital technology. Wollen's book is based on the premise that there are no fixed ways of writing about the cinema but, rather, a plethora of paths leading in very different directions, each contributing to a new understanding of the 20th century's major art form."--BOOK JACKETNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexes
