Spotlight – new work
Dr Carlo Cenciarelli is currently exploring cinematic listening and to what extent cinematic conventions now shape our understanding of sounds and images outside the cinema.
This is a new area of interdisciplinary study with two primary objectives:
- A better understanding of how listening to film is situated in specific textual, spatial and historical practices.
- An exploration of how modes of listening to film may have extended beyond the texts, places and institutions of cinema.
