The goal of this conference is to bring together researchers who are interested in cinema, media studies and the cross disciplinary approach of film (moving image, home movies, performing arts, etc.), audiovisual media (TV, video games) and city (urban studies, architecture, geography, art, literature, etc.). By now it is widely accepted that cinema is a particularly spatial form of media which both organizes the spatial imaginaries inside the frame and at the same time actively renders the space through film production, distribution, and exhibition. The crucial changes in moving image technology (digital turn) and global urbanization, brought the remarkably productive spatial turn into cinema studies. The contemporary urban and cinema studies demonstrate how productive such interdisciplinary approaches are. However, today when we think about moving image and a city, we also think about a pixel and forms of data representation, digital and global interconnections. Historically, cinema’s connections with the city have been referred to as chemistry between “celluloid and asphalt.” In classical film studies, both the city and cinema have been analyzed through frameworks of modernity. The conference engages with questions of representation, distribution, exhibition and audience, as well as intersections of urban, cinema and media studies. City, Cinema, and Media (the 8th edition of the Baltic Sea Region Film History Conference) focuses on the cinema and urban space. As we witness the new forms of audiovisual mediation enter our public and private spaces, the conference invites the researchers to collectively reflect about them.
