Biographical convergen…
The Conscience of Cinema: The works of Joris Ivens 1912-1989
This is the first book to survey the entire career of Joris Ivens, a prolific documentary filmmaker who worked on every continent over the course of seven decades. More than a biography of a leftist committed to changing the world through film, The Conscience of Cinema is also a microcosmic history of the documentary and its form, culture, and place within twentieth-century world cinema. Ivens worked in almost every genre, including the essay, co…

Homosociality in the Classical American Stag Film: Off-Screen, On-Screen
Homosociality in the Classical American Stag Film: Off-Screen, On-Screen
The classical American stag film, a body of clandestine short pornographic films produced during the first two-thirds of the 20th century, has received scholarly attention in several quarters, first from heterosexual male scribes and beneficiaries of the `sexual revolution', and more recently by feminist and queer cultural historians. The present article pursues this study by developing the concept of homosociality in relation to the stag film co…

Au Canada , cette tendance «masculine » est représentée par les vidéastes montréalais Jean Gagnon et Marc Paradis, de même que par John Greyson de Toronto qui, chacun à sa manière, explorent plusieurs pistes dans la…
Gimms / an Example of an Operational System for Computer Cartography
The computer is playing an increasing role in Canadian Cartography. Developments in the field of thematic computer cartography have been less spectacular than those in automated cartography. This paper describes an operational system for thematic computer cartography, GIMMS; now mounted at Carleton University. It is argued that the availability of systems of this type will help realize the potential of the computer in thematic mapping
