- Class Description:
- This course serves as a capstone course within the Studies in Cinema and Media Culture Program as well as an advanced `seminar' in film and media theory. As such, it presupposes a good deal of foundational knowledge of the subjects, but it does not require an exhaustive knowledge of them. In many ways, this course is designed to, bring up to date, media and cinema theory through an in-depth and sincere discussion of contemporary media objects and theoretical perspectives and questions. Every week our class will begin with a screening or interactive media session. After these `media experiences,' we will discuss them and our weekly readings which will engage with these films, television shows or multi-media texts. Sometimes, this will be a direct engagement, more often than not, we will need to make a number of these connections ourselves, but this is a more productive mode of working between ideas and visual texts. We will also work together in order to build individual interests and ideas, both in the classroom and outside of it.
