[ecrea] PUBLIC 47: 3D Cinema and Beyond

*New publication:
PUBLIC 47: 3D Cinema and Beyond? *?
Edited by Dan Adler, Janine Marchessault and Sanja Obradovic??

PUBLIC 47: 3D Cinema and Beyond brings together essays and artist 
portfolios that engage with mainstream entertainment, experimental film 
and historical scholarship as part of a larger context for examining the 
grammar of 3D cinema --- its histories and its futures. From cinema and 
television to video games and augmented reality, the essays consider an 
"expanded field" of stereoscopic visual culture. Contributors explore 
obsolescent and emerging technologies, singular and trend setting 
practices, narrative and documentary approaches, and the overall 
perceptual experiences of 3D media. This groundbreaking collection 
includes Sergei Eisenstein's extraordinary 1947 essay "On Stereocinema" 
translated for the first time in its entirety; a landmark address by Wim 
Wenders; and the last essay written by 3D pioneer researcher Ray Zone.?
