Interkulturelle Räume im Spielfilm: Eine filmgeographische Analyse am Beispiel von New York City (Perspektiven der Humangeographie)
by Elisabeth Nora SommerladSpielfilme imaginieren New York City oft als eine Stadt, in der das alltägliche Zusammenleben durch interkulturelle Begegnungen konstituiert wird. Das vorliegende Buch nimmt sich diesem Topos an. Die filmgeographische Studie analysiert, wie Spielfilme interkulturelle Begegnungen inszenieren. Die Autorin erarbeitet anhand von 17 US-amerikanischen Spielfilmen, wie interkulturelle Begegnungen strategisch inszeniert werden. Hierbei hinterfragt sie kritisch die Darstellungen gesellschaftlicher Herausforderungen, welche sich im Kontext des dargebotenen Miteinanders ergeben. Das Ergebnis sind sechs vielschichtige Dimensionen interkultureller Räume. Diese offenbaren, dass NYC letztlich vor allem als Stadt kultureller Koexistenz inszeniert wird – als Projektionsfolie einer Gesellschaft, in der sich Individuen anhand diffuser kultureller Marker beständig voneinander abgrenzen. Die Studie liefert damit einen Beitrag zum mediensensiblen Diskurs über interkulturelle Fragestellungen, denen in globalisierten, kulturell diversen und medienaffinen Gesellschaften höchste Relevanz zukommt.

Intermedial Art Practices as Cultural Resilience (Routledge Advances in Art and Visual Studies)
by Lindsay BlairThis innovative collection of essays is focused on the idea of transmedialization: the ways that the traditional forms of the predominantly oral cultures of Scotland and Brittany (poetry, song and story) can be transformed by the use of hybrid forms and new digital technologies.The volume invites readers from a range of disciplines – music, art, literature, history, cultural memory studies, anthropology or media studies – to consider how an intermedial aesthetics of the edge can enable these distinctive cultures to thrive. The languages of both cultures are presently endangered and the essays seek to connect notions of language with a culture which can align its traditions with the concerns of the present day. The collection proceeds from a conceptual analysis of poetry film, peripheral vision and the concerns of peripheral communities to an examination of inventive practices in the film-poem, experimental video, film portrait, word-image, digitised music, sound-image and genre-contestant narratives. The collection also includes contributions from creative practitioners who utilize a range of hybrid forms to revitalize the traditional vernacular cultures of Scotland and Brittany.The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, literature, film studies, media studies, music, cultural theory, and philosophy.
Intermedial Performance and Politics in the Public Sphere (Avant-Gardes in Performance)
by Katia Arfara Aneta Mancewicz Ralf RemshardtThis volume is a collection of scholarly articles and interviews with intermedial artists working with the concepts of public sphere at the intersection of aesthetics and politics. It explores the response of socially-engaged artistic practices to the current crisis in politics and media. It also critically examines urgent issues such as rampant nationalism and populism, expanding neoliberalism, the refugee crisis, growing inosculations of corporate and cyber culture, and the ongoing geopolitical changes in the Middle East. Can intermedial performances reflect the present artistic and political dilemmas in Europe and beyond?The collection provides theoretical frameworks that interrogate the role that spectators as citizens can play in our mediatized world while focusing on the functions of immersion, participation, and civic engagement in contemporary performance and society. The collection provides analyses by international scholars from Europe, Asia, and the USA, covering global performance created in the twenty-first century. It also introduces interviews with internationally acclaimed intermedial artists and companies such as BERLIN, Rimini Protokoll, Dries Verhoeven, Akira Takayama, and Kris Verdonck.
Intermedial Praxis and Practice as Research
by Joanne ScottIn this book, Jo Scott shares writing and documentation from her practice as research (PaR) project, which explored and analysed a mode of performance she developed, called live intermediality. The book offers a much-needed example of fully developed writing in relation to a practice as research (PaR) project. Weaving together theory, documentation and critical reflection, it offers fresh insights into both the process and presentation of PaR work, as well as theories around intermediality in performance, the role and actions of the live media performer and how live media events are created. It can be read alongside Robin Nelson's 2013 text, Practice as Research in the Arts, as it demonstrates how Nelson's model for PaR can be applied and developed. It also includes a set of online videos and commentaries, which complement and reflect on the writing in the core text.
Intermedial Shakespeares on European Stages
by Aneta MancewiczIntermedial Shakespeares argues that intermediality has refashioned performances of Shakespeare's plays over the last two decades in Europe. It describes ways in which text and author, time and space, actor and audience have been redefined in Shakespearean productions that incorporate digital media, and it traces transformations in practice.
Intermedial Theater
by Bryan ReynoldsThis book explores relationships between intermedial theater, consciousness, memory, objects, subjectivity, and affect through productive engagement with the performance aesthetics, socio-cognitive theory, and critical methodology of transversal poetics alongside other leading philosophical approaches to performance. It offers the first sustained analysis of the work of Gilles Deleuze, F#65533;lix Guattari, Jean Baudrillard, and Friedrich Nietzsche in relation to the contemporary European theater of Jan Lauwers and Needcompany, Romeo Castellucci and Soc#65533;etas Raffaello Sanzio, Thomas Ostermeier, Rodrigo Garc#65533;a and La Carnicer#65533;a Teatro, and the Transversal Theater Company. It connects contemporary uses of objects, simulacra, and technologies in both posthumanist discourse and postdramatic theater to the transhistorically and culturally mediating power of Shakespeare as a means by which to discuss the affective impact of intermedial theater on today's audiences.

Internal Marketing: Internal Marketing (University of Tehran Science and Humanities Series)
by Pantea Foroudi Morteza AkbariThere has been a growing interest in the subject of internal marketing: issues and perspectives, principles, foundations and concepts in recent years amongst academics and practitioners because there is a belief that successful and improvement in a competitive market gains through deliver better service to customer (firstly, to internal customers; i.e., employees of organization) and create satisfaction in them which in turn influence consumer patronage and loyalty, and consumer decision-making. The significant role of the internal marketing is to developing and maintaining relationships with the internal stakeholders of a contemporary organisation. There is an extensive belief in today's society on how the company viewed by key stakeholders such as investors and shareholders, consumers and customers (both internal and external), members of the community and employees in which the company resides.The challenge is to explore new and effective ways to harness the power of the communication opportunities it presents to engage with stakeholders in interactive, immediate and innovative ways. Any successful communication campaign will include them in its strategy. We view the study of the relationship between internal marketing, internal and external stakeholders, and companies to be timely topics for further investigation.
