International Research Projects (Completed)
Film and the Other Arts: Intermediality, Medium Specificity, Creativity (2015–2017), funded by the Arts & Humanities Research Council (AHRC). Principal Investigator: Marion Schmid (University of Edinburgh); Co-Investigator: Kim Knowles (University of Aberystwyth). This research project, explored new directions for the study of cinematic intermediality, focusing on the ways in which the moving image is shaped and revitalized by artistic cross-fertilization. Particular emphasis was given to the avant-garde and experimental practice, as well as to the role of technology in forging fresh connections between film and the other arts. The network brought together artists and researchers across the Humanities. Participating Universities: University of Edinburgh (Scotland), University of Aberystwyth (GB), University of Cambridge (GB), University of Applied Arts Vienna (Austria). One of the outcomes is the book Cinematic Intermediality: Theory and Practice, edited by Kim Knowles and Marion Schmid. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press 2021.
