Dewey Edition23
ReviewsA neutral and fertile site to creatively interrogate screens, volumes of space, and the meaningful liminalities that lie in between environments, disciplines, and artforms. [...] The scholarship produced in this volume recognises and productively interrogates the multidisciplinary contributions of diverse fields in answering questions surrounding the intertwined futures of architecture and the moving image. [...] The primary focus on the in-between, while clearly not a new concept, for either film or architecture, is presented in new, novel, and productive ways throughout the collection. [...] Architecture, Film, and the In-between: Spatio-Cinematic Betwixt provides a compelling, multidisciplinary snapshot of contemporary architectural and cinematic spatial design. While scholars and practitioners of both disciplines will likely gravitate more toward certain chapters, methodological tools, and ideas, the meeting of architecture, cinema, as well as philosophy, sociology, ecology, and anthropology proves to be fruitful and worth revisiting.

SynopsisHow films imagine and represent in-between spaces and cinematic production becomes a site to project spatial fantasies. Architecture, Film, and the In-between: Spatio-Cinematic Betwixt looks at the cinematic representation of architectural in-betweenness, as well as the in-between spaces within the architectural structure of films. As films seek to depict architecture in evolving, original ways, they can also expand betwixt areas imbuing them with horror or fantasy. Spies can escape inside unconvincingly stable ducts and children can slide through pipes with no discernible function. And just as subway routes and airplanes can stitch together two destinations, loopholes and magic architectural features can connect distinct realms via interstitial spaces. Contributors discuss a range of architects and filmmakers, including John Lautner, David Lynch, Christopher Nolan, Agnès Varda, and Mies van der Rohe, and take diverse approaches to the liminal space between architecture and film touching on existential experience, post-phenomenological thinking, sociopolitical cinearchitecture, fictive ecologies, and more. Collecting essays by well-respected architects, thinkers, and philosophers - such as Juhani Pallasmaa, Beatriz Colomina, and Graham Harman - this book includes imagery and infographics that map filmic spaces, diagram narratives, and visualize the hidden spatial dimensions of movies., How films imagine and represent in-between spaces and how cinematic production becomes a site to project spatial fantasies.
