Screen media
Screen Media offers screen enthusiasts the analytical and theoretical vocabulary required to articulate responses to film and television. The authors emphasise the importance of 'thinking on both sides of the screen'. They show how to develop the skills to understand and analyse how and why a screen text was shot, scored, and edited in a particular way, and then to consider what impact those production choices might have on the audience.Stadler a…
Imitation of Life
The influence of film's compelling images, characters and storylines has polarized perspectives on cinema and the moral imagination. Does film stimulate the audience's imagination and foster imitation in morally dangerous ways, or elicit ethical insight and empathy? Might the presentation of images on screen denude the capacity to conjure images in the mind's eye, or cultivate the imaginative capacity for moral vision as spectators attend to the …
Imagined Landscapes
Imagined Landscapes teams geocritical analysis with digital visualization techniques to map and interrogate films, novels, and plays in which space and place figure prominently. Drawing upon A Cultural Atlas of Australia, a database-driven interactive digital map that can be used to identify patterns of representation in Australia’s cultural landscape, the book presents an integrated perspective on the translation of space across narrative forms …
Conceptualizing and Mapping Geocultural Space
This essay seeks to critically conceptualize the term geocultural space and the emerging field of study with which it is associated by exploring the various ways in which such space is currently being mapped by researchers using digital humanities tools and methods. In drawing together intersecting interests in Geographic Information Systems and spatio-cultural narratives and experiences, this work defines an interdisciplinary field of research t…

New Philosophies of Film
In its exploration of the relationship between image and thought, Robert Sinnerbrink’s new book, New Philosophies of Film: Thinking Images, joins a steadily growing body of work at the intersection of film and philosophy. The past decade has seen the publication of a number of titles in this fertile area, including Kevin Stoehr’s edited collection Film and Knowledge (2002), Richard A. Gilmore’s Doing Philosophy at the Movies (2005), Daniel Frampt…
Oreo, Topdeck and Eminem
A B S T R A C T • The slang terms Oreo (someone who looks black but acts white) and Topdeck (someone who looks white but acts black) draw on the language of popular culture to signify racial hybridity, superseding slurs such as ‘black honkie’ and ‘wigger’. Using the terms Oreo and Topdeck to frame the analysis, this article investigates how identity politics finds expression in language, youth media and popular culture. It questions how global me…
Never-Never Land
This article explores how the imaginative use of the landscape in Baz Luhrmann's Australia (2008) intersects with the fantasy of Australianness that the film constructs. We argue that the fictional Never-Never Land through which the film's characters travel is an, albeit problematic, ‘indigenizing’ space that can be entered imaginatively through cultural texts including poetry, literature and film, or through cultural practices including touristi…
Cultural value and viscerality in Sukiyaki Western Django
Cult film director Takashi Miike's hybrid homage Sukiyaki Western Django (2007) can be critiqued in terms of its derivative nature, its overstated affect, and its lack of psychological and thematic nuance – characteristics that are associated with ‘bad film’ genres such as the spaghetti western that Miike emulates and valorizes. The classification of texts as ‘bad film’ is often related to their exaggerated affective qualities and the cultural de…
Aids ads
South Africa has one of the highest incidences of HIV/AIDS in the world, but lacks a prominent, effective, publicly funded media information and education campaign. The absence of adequate government communication in this area of health education has created a space for innovative community and corporate interventions. This article brings together arguments about the functions of advertising, the socio‐political dynamics of sexual behaviour chang…
