New book: The Multisensory Film Experience. A Cognitive Model of Experiential Film Aesthetics

Luis Antunes, phd candidate in film and aesthetics at Department of art and media has recently published the book The Multisensory Film Experience. A Cognitive Model of Experiential Film Aesthetics at Intellect Books (2016). Congratulations!

In the book, Antunes argues that our perceptual experiences of an audiovisual medium as film are multisensory and not directly limited to sight and hearing. He also examine the works of Gus Van Sant, Ki-Duk Kim and Knut Erik Jensen to explore what he calls their experiential film aesthetics, covering the vestibular sense, nociception and thermoception.

You will find the book in Dragvoll Library.

If you would like to examine the experiential film aesthetics in the works of Gus Van Sant, Ki-Duk Kim and Knut Erik Jensen, you will find some of their films in the library’s DVD collection.
