  • Mapping Cinematographic Territories

    https://atlascineproject.wordpress.com

    The overall goal of this project is to develop a range of tools, methodologies, practices and concepts that could contribute to the improvement of the cartography of narratives in general and of cinematographic narratives in particular.

    Films frame our geographic imagination. They associate images and stories to places, and contribute to the shaping of how we perceive and experience these places. Through the places they include and exclude, films contribute to the production of ‘cognitive maps’ and frame the way we envision and understand the world. The cartography of cinematographic narratives can then serve to explore how films may shape our spatial imaginary. It can also help to reveal the geographic structure of stories.
