Would framing it through a particular movement like B. Ruby Rich’s New Queer Cinema be useful in this context? www.degruyterbrill.com/document/doi...

Lost 19th century film by Méliès discovered at the Library | Timeless Library conservators recently made a startling discovery in a batch of decaying film reels -- a long-lost 1897 film by early cinema icon George Méliès. The French magician-turned-filmmaker's

"The 45-second film, made around 1897, was the first appearance on film of what might be called a robot"

HELL. YES.

Meta Plans to Cut Around 10% of Employees in Reality Labs Business

If Fbook's purchase of Oculus in 2014 was the start of VR hype, Meta's reduction of Reality Labs is an official end of that chapter. But don't be fooled, Meta still wants to put a screen between you and the world. It's more pernicious, in the form of always-on, AI infused Ray-Bans. The cycle repeats

RIP Diane Keaton- such sad news, what an incredible talent. You probably didn't know she collected clown paintings by amateur artists, eventually publishing an entire book devoted to them

Diane Keaton created new ways for women on screen to laugh, think, cry, age, and, yes, dress. She was flinty and vulnerable and so much everything all at once. I, for one, wouldn’t be me without her.

Scholarly orgs based in the U.S. that purport to be "international" are going to need to come to terms with what it means to continue holding their in-person gatherings in a country many people cannot travel to or no longer feel safe visiting for all kinds of reasons.

1/7 It is with deep sadness that we mourn the passing of Linda Williams, a pioneering scholar whose fearless work transformed film and media studies. Over her remarkable career, Williams challenged scholars to take seriously popular and often marginalized genres,

In memory of her passing my favourite Linda Williams media moment is just at the end of an old television documentary series on the history of pornography. She did have a soft spot for 'Boys in the Sand' (1972).
