Course Site for Future Cinema 1 (and sometimes Future Cinema 2: Applied Theory) at York University, Canada
Tue, January 29 2013 » futurecinema2_2012
This course examines the shift from traditional cinematic spectacle to works probing the frontiers of interactive, performative, and networked media. Drawing upon a broad range of scholarship, including film theory, communication studies, cultural studies and new media theory, the course will consider how digital technologies are transforming the semiotic fabric of contemporary visual culture. Our focus will be on the phenomenon Gene Youngblood described three decades ago as expanded cinema an explosion of the frame outward towards immersive, interactive and interconnected (i.e., environmental) forms of culture.

This is really cool! Its so funny though, how they say “and meta will be available very soon – earlier than you may think” and… “our first set kits will go to those with the most passion, those who are psyched to break the limits of whats possible with computers.” OR what he really means to say, is also the ones who will be able to afford it ;). The initial cost of these glasses will probably be similar to when portable drives first came out. How a 500gb portable drive used to cost a fortune and now you can get a 1Tb for less than $100. Nevertheless these are cool – can not wait until they develop more styles.
