Press Release
Continental Film Philosophy Today
New Special Issue of Film-Philosophy
The latest issue of the salon-journal Film-Philosophy (ISSN
1466-4615) takes a snapshot of the new lines of thinking in
continental film philosophy. Taking on the new interest with the
bodily in relation to the image, the return of deconstruction in film
studies, and featuring a symposium on Dominique Chateau’s Cinéma et
philosophie (2005), the issue examines the possible futures of
philosophy and film. (This includes the appearance of philosophers on
film, with a review by Edward R. O’Neill of the recent films Derrida
and Zizek!). Edited by four of the ten-member editorial collective
(Sarah Cooper, David Martin-Jones, Douglas Morrey, and Benjamin
Noys), this issue of Film-Philosophy continues our desire for
accessible academic engagement.
Film-Philosophy is designed as a 21st century international para-
academic 24-hour live-event version of specialised academic
publishing. Traditional journals (including those online that desire
the gravitas of tradition, and don't exploit their electronic
position) allow little or no possibility for interaction, response,
or argument. Articles are read, but hang in the air with a somewhat
delayed life – before being cited perhaps months or years later. Film-
Philosophy is a 'salon-journal', with 1500 worldwide members who can
discuss and continue the journal review-articles. We also have a
tradition of inviting reviewed authors the right to reply as another
way of short circuiting this delay.
So we encourage any and all readers to use the salon to reply and
engage creatively with these new lines in continental film philosophy.

Birthday to us.
