Rating
0.0 stars

Metropolis (1927) is a German expressionist science-fiction drama film directed by Fritz Lang with screenplay by Thea von Harbou. It was adapted with Lang from von Harbou's novel (1925) also called Metropolis. It stars Gustav Fröhlich, Alfred Abel, Rudolf Klein-Rogge, and Brigitte Helm. Made in Germany during the Weimar period, Metropolis is set in a futuristic urban dystopia that is sharply divided between the working class and elite. Original Score by Gottfried Huppertz. Freder the son of the wealthy and powerful city master, Joh Fredersen, falls in love with Maria, a prophetic figure to the working class. The film length was cut back after its original German premiere, with restoration efforts finding footage recovered from Argentina and New Zealand to bring it close its original. The film has a fairy tale like plot of uniting the classes with an ending title reading "The Mediator Between the Head and the Hands Must Be the Heart." It is considered to be one of the best 100 films of all time. Visit this link to see a shortened version with the Music score composed by: Giorgio Moroder, Gottfried Huppertz, Thomas Köner, Ronnie Cramer.

Networked Social Movements: Media & Mobilization
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

This seminar is a space for collaborative inquiry into the relationships between social movements and the media. We'll review these relationships through the lens of social movement theory, and function as a workshop to develop student projects. Seminar participants will work together to explore frameworks, methods, and tools for understanding networked social movements in the digital media ecology. We will engage with social movement studies as a body of theoretical and empirical work, and learn about key concepts including: resource mobilization; political process; framing; New Social Movements; collective identity; tactical media; protest cycles; movement structure; and more. We'll explore methods of social movement investigation, examine new data sources and tools for movement analysis, and grapple with recent innovations in social movement theory and research. Assignments include short blog posts, a book review, co-facilitation of a seminar discussion, and a final research project focused on social movement media practices in comparative perspective.
