MIRAJ 12.2 is out now! Special Issue

Intellect is pleased to announce that MIRAJ: Moving Image Review & Art Journal 12.2 is out now!

 

Special Issue: ‘Spectral Cinema and Contested Landscapes’ 

 

A volume that has been created in response to the symposium of the same name that was held at University for the Creative Arts in 2022. In the journal, as in the symposium, we frame a discussion around how the spectral can be interpreted and re-evaluated through contemporary socially and politically motivated moving image practice.
