This course considers the nature, effects and/or role of technological developments in cinema including processes of change and innovation. It analyses the ways in which technology influences our understanding of cinema, the way technological changes respond to cultural and social shifts, and/or how cinematic technologies draw on and impact on technological changes in other fields. In 2017 the course will examine theories of the posthuman as represented in films that stress the impact of evolving technologies on subjectivity, relationships, and culture. The course will provide an introduction to posthuman and relevant theoretical inquiries, such as ecocriticism and biopolitics. Screenings will include a mix of science fiction, dystopic, and independent films.
