Film movie production: technical skills
What does it mean to exist, in our experience of cinema, according to listening? How do sound and 'noise' reconfigure relations between spectators and screens, and by extension, spectators and their worlds? How do films raise questions about the ethics and politics of listening to different bodies? Resonant Bodies in Contemporary European Art Cinema answers these questions through an analysis of films by Catherine Breillat, Gaspar No, Tony Gatlif, Arnaud des Pallires, Lars von Trier and Peter Strickland. These post-millennial European directors have worked with sound in ways that resist the full-definition and perfect hearing offered by Dolby technology. Instead, they have privileged 'noise' - sounds that take us to the limit of what we can hear - in a move that foregrounds the body on screen and constructs spectators as listening bodies.

Reviews for Resonant Bodies in Contemporary European Art Cinema

""This film-philosophical foray into a range of fascinating sonic problems the aesthetics of volume, Foley as a formal restraint, violence and vibration, the nonhuman dimension of rustling compellingly models the book's thesis that listening is a radical mode of attention, and that deep attention is a form of thinking itself."" -Eugenie Brinkema, author of Life-Destroying Diagrams
