Gigantic Visions of Mankind:
Spectacular Effects and Digital Cinema

Film-Philosophy Special Issue
May 2005

'From here we see the perspective to the fantastic dreams the camera 
can fixate . . . gigantic visions of mankind crushed by the 
Juggernaut of war and then blessed by the angel of peace may arise 
before our eyes with all their spiritual meaning'. -- Hugo 
Munsterberg (1916)

Film-Philosophy is a 'salon-journal': an international para-academic 
24-hour live-event version of specialised academic publishing, 
dedicated to philosophically reviewing film studies, philosophical 
aesthetics, and world cinema -- with an online readership of over 
5000 every month, as well as more than 1300 permanent worldwide 
members of the email discussion salon.

Unlike traditional journals, even online ones, Film-Philosophy texts 
are published one at a time over the course of each month through an 
email salon (as well as on the website) so that they can be 
immediately discussed and contested and continued by salon members.

To join the salon, and receive the texts via email as and when they 
are published over the month, simply send the message:
join film-philosophy YOURNAME
or
join film-philosophy YOURNAME with digest
to: <mailto:[log in to unmask]>

(In the digest version you will receive salon posts in a single 
email, sent about once a day.) Any problems simply contact 
<mailto:[log in to unmask]>.

Then reply to the confirmation email, and you can post directly to 
the salon -- simply send your comments and questions to: 
<mailto:[log in to unmask]>.
