This conference is organised by the School of Architecture and School of Politics and Communication Studies. The AHRC-funded research project, entitled City in Film: Liverpool's Urban Landscape and the Moving Image, is conducted by Dr Julia Hallam (principle investigator), Professor Robert Kronenburg (co-investigator), Dr Richard Koeck and Dr Les Roberts. This conference is supported by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and the University of Liverpool. Cover design: Richard Koeck and Les Roberts. Copyright cover image: Angus Tilston.

Cities in Film: Architecture, Urban Space and the Moving Image An International Interdisciplinary Conference University of Liverpool, 26-28th March 2008 Cities in Film explores the relationship between film, architecture and the urban landscape drawing on interests in film, architecture, urban studies and civic design, cultural geography, cultural studies and related fields. The conference is part of University of Liverpool's contribution to the European Capital of Culture 2008, and aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogues around architectural and film history and theory, film and urban space, and to point towards new intellectual frameworks for discussion. It seeks to draw on the work of theorists and practitioners engaged in ideas in these areas, examining film in the context of urban design and development and exploring in particular the contested social, cultural and political terrain that underpins these practices.

  • Dynamic of the Metropolis: the City Film and the Spaces of Modernity
    Dynamic of the Metropolis: The City Film and the Spaces of Modernity Anthony Kinik Department of Art History and Communication Studies McGill University, Montreal August 2008 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctorate. ©Anthony Kinik 2008 2 Acknowledgements First of all, I‘d like to thank Will Straw, who saw the Graduate Program in Communications through some difficult times, and then steered it with a steady hand into what has proven to be a hugely successful merger with our friends in Art History. More importantly, he has been an invaluable advisor for many of us who‘ve passed through the department over the years, and he was there when it counted. Secondly, I‘d like to thank Steven Jacobs for reviving a conversation about ―city films‖ and ―city symphonies‖ some years back. His timing couldn‘t have been better. Love and respect are due to Michelle Marek, who somehow managed to stick by me through thick and thin (mostly thin), and who has proved herself to be both a tireless proofreader and a true believer. A number of friendships were instrumental to seeing this project through to completion—in particular I‘d like to thank Marc Furstenau, Christine Strähle, Ira Wagman, and Peter Urquhart, all of whom led by example, and provided much- needed encouragement down the final stretch. *** This project was partly funded by a Max Stern Recruitment Fellowship (1999-2000) and by a Hydro Quebec Two-Year McGill Major Fellowship (2000-2002). *** This thesis is dedicated to the memory of my father, John Kinik (1938-2008).
