Dear Colleague, We are pleased to announce that the latest issue of Projections has recently been published by Berghahn Journals. The first article in this issue is a wide-ranging discussion of how our brains process the sights and sounds of motion pictures. The next article focuses on discontinuity as an essential ingredient of style, while the following article gives us a fine-grained formal analysis of Steve McQueen’s film Hunger. The last two articles in this issue feature a dialogue with neuroscientist Jaak Panksepp and an examination of “the science of storytelling,” respectively. The issue concludes with a book reviews section.
