How do cinema and planetary urbanization shape each other amid ecological and democratic crises? This book maps shifts in visual culture since the late 1980s as filmmakers, photographers, and artists probe the distant terrains of extended urbanization.
Introducing the Sensoriums of Planetary Urbanization, it examines experiences of urban life within and beyond the city. The launch event features a presentation and discussion with the editors and other guests.
Panelists: Rosa Barba (Professor for Art in Space and Time, ETHZ), Volker Pantenburg (Professor for Film Theory, UZH), and Darcy Alexandra (Institute for Social Anthropology, University of Bern), Hubert Klumpner (Professor for Architecture and Urban Design, ETHZ).
