Research Focus
My research focuses on media specifications (sound, music, times) and the language of cinema as a product of modernism movement in the interbellum era, analysing the work of Benjamin Fondane.
My aim is to examine the cinematic vision of Benjamin Fondane, looking in particular at the role assigned to sound in Fondane's experimental concept of film. The research study has two primary objectives. Firstly, the research study will aim to address the significant lacuna in the academic literature that has been published on French avant-garde cinema in the interwar period by providing a comprehensive overview of the theoretical and ideological foundations of Fondane's cinematic vision. Secondly, the proposed research study will endeavour to demonstrate that Fondane's poetics of sound represent a unique cinematic 'picture of the mind' which redefines the relationship between image and sound, and film and spectator alike.
