CinemaSpace proposes to bring together scholars working on Indian cinema in an attempt to refocus our attention on questions of technology, aesthetics and the production of cinematic space. The structuring of the cinematic city will be the organizing thread of the conference. The conference attempts to initiate new conversations between papers that address the aesthetics and narrative forms of Indian cinema from different standpoints. The imagining of the cinematic city is a significant thematic that will allow us to think through the structuring of space in Indian cinema outside culturalist assumptions, and to help us understand its aesthetic practice as historical and internationalist at the same time. Rather than cinema being a space through which one finds traces of real cities, the conference attempts to think of space of the city in cinema as a frame of intelligibility.
Date: 3-4 November, 2011
Venue: Rice University, Houston TX
