<\/a><\/p>\nThe conference series Besides the Screen began in London in 2010 at Goldsmiths College,
\nUniversity of London. The event meant to gather research projects focused on an apparently
\nsecondary subject in the field of screen studies: the instances of film distribution and
\nconsumption. By that time, it already seemed important to promote debates around these topics,
\nconsidering that some of the most meaningful effects caused by computer networks on
\naudiovisual media are connected not to image production, but rather to the emergence of new
\ndynamics of circulation \u2013 from peer\u00ad to \u00adpeer filesharing to mobile screens, from VJing to
\nvideo\u00ad on\u00ad demand.<\/p>\n

Projection, the Moving Image and the Transition to Digital
\nCharlotte Brunsdon, Michael Pigott and Richard Wallace
\nThis plenary session will be presented by Charlotte Brunsdon, Michael Pigott and Richard
\nWallace who are working together on the AHRC\u00adfunded Projection Project (2014\u00ad18). This
\nmulti\u00admethod project takes projection as its starting point in an exploration of cinema\u2019s transition
\nto digital. In this presentation we will outline some of the premises of the project, and present
\nfindings which range from interviews with former projectionists to sounds from the projection
\nbox. Our project includes archival and oral history research into the neglected history of the
\ncinema projectionist through which we challenge the primacy of the image in theorisations of
\ncinematic specificity, revealing in contrast the role of hidden labours of cinema exhibition. While
\nwe are attentive to the human cost of the transition to digital in terms of redundancies and
\nredeployments, we are also concerned with the new possibilities of the emergent uses of digital
\nprojection outside of the cinema space. Here we attend to practices \u2013 such as projection
\nmapping \u00ad enabled by the portability and flexibility of digital projectors, and situate them within a
\nlong history of projection. By investigating the role of outdoor projection as a means of both
\nadvertising and protest, as well as the figure of the nightclub VJ, the project seeks to identify
\ncontinuities and differences that pertain within the extra\u00adcinematic everyday uses of moving
\nimage projection. As a multi\u00adpart presentation we will seek to give a sense of both what is
\nhidden and lost in the projection box, and what is imagined outside it in a wide range of venues
\nand practices.
\nProfessor Charlotte Brunsdon has been Principal Investigator of the Projection Project. Her
\nmost recent research had been concerned with the spaces of film and television and she has
\njust completed a book on T
\nelevision Cities t o be published by Duke University Press in 2017.
\nDr Michael Pigott is co\u00adinvestigator on The Projection Project and author of J oseph Cornell
\nversus Cinema (2013). He teaches visual cultures and audio\u00advisual performance at the
\nUniversity of Warwick. He also works as an artist and has been known to do some VJing.
\nDr Richard Wallace is Research Fellow on the Projection Project. He has research interests in
\nBritish film and television history and technology, historical research methods and screen
\ndocumentary and has published in the J ournal of British Cinema and Television.
\nAll work at the University of Warwick, mostly in the Department of Film and Television Studies.
