Das Blockseminar wird von der Filmwissenschaftlerin Dr. Jelena Miseljic von der University of Montenegro gegeben. Sie ist im Rahmen eines mobility grants an der UHi - diese finanzielle und logistische Unterstützung kann umgekehrt auch für Studierende und Lehrende in Anspruch genommen werden, die an den künstlerischen Fächern der Univ. of Montenegro ein Semester oder einen Kurzaufenthalt verbringen möchten.

Die Studienleistung wird im Seminar bekannt gegeben. Die einzelnen Tageszeiten sind noch vorläufig, die Daten 15.-17.11. sind fest und verbindlich. WICHTIG: Ein Modulabschluss ist in diesem Seminar NICHT möglich, da bei Kurzzeitdozenturen ein solches Angebot nicht vorgesehen ist.

The main subject of the course is the new modes of expression in contemporary visual culture, with focus on the cinema in the age of digital media. The term cinema will, therefore, be considered from the perspective of the transdiciplinary artistic media. In this regard, the main aim of the course is to examine how the post-cinematic culture (when film production and reception technologies are subsumed under radically different power relations) reflects the relationship between the human subject and its technocentric environment. Selected case studies will indicate that there is a common tendency to deconstruct the classical film narrative style by using atypical film means to bring the content closer to the currents of present-day screen culture. Therefore, the course offers a certain design for the critical apparatus for understanding the tendencies of contemporary cinema. In the introductory lesson, we will examine the methodological foundation, which consists of theoretical and empirical research that is based on an interdisciplinary approach to the topic. In the following days the concept of automated image will be introduced - we will explain the terminological and structural basis for possible analysis of automated image as a film medium. In the final workshop, the students will analyse case studies, i.e., the use of automated images in contemporary cinema, through the reviews of surveillance camera films, computer screen films, and landscape films, as emerging genres and filmmaking tendencies.
