Architectures of Containment
Colonial museums do not simply display looted objects; they regulate their visibility, movement, and containment through interconnected infrastructures of exhibition, storage, and circulation. This article examines how cinema critically represents and destabilizes these museal infrastructures through three films: Statues meurent aussi (Statues Also Die, dir. Alain Resnais and Chris Marker, 1953),You Hide Me(dir. Nii Kwate Owoo, 1970), andDahomey(…
Sensory Ethnographic Practices in Turkey
This article explores documentary film production in Turkey, focusing on sensory ethnographic cinema, an artistic approach that highlights local cultural practices through the lens of the body, senses, and emotions. While not explicitly categorized as sensory ethnography, certain Turkish documentaries such as Life on Their Backs (Yeşim Ustaoğlu, 2004) and Last Season Shawaks (Kazım Öz, 2009) embody similar artistic elements. By highlighting the k…
The Place of Women’s Filmmaking in an Interdisciplinary Architecture Course
This paper explores the rich pedagogical potential of women’s filmmaking for interdisciplinary courses that explore the relations between cinema, architecture, and urbanism.

In Mosori Monika, an experimental ethnographic film that documents the swamps of Orinoco River in Venezuela, filmmaker Strand focuses her attention on the interactions between the Spanish Franciscan missionaries who came to the site in 1945 and t…
Across the Traces
Since the early 1960s, Lawrence Jordan has appropriated a variety of Victorian engravings transforming them into experimental animations through the use of cut-out stop-motion techniques. In their outmoded style and technique, the dense tapestry of collaged ephemera begins to function as indices of their original Victorian context and its printing processes. But the stop-motion manipulation also renders these indexical documents surreal through t…
