SUMMARY:Rhythm is a Heartbeat: Video Essays from Frankfurt and Chicago
UID:642202@northwestern.edu
TZID:America/Chicago
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a presentation of new audiovisual essays!  The Summer Institute for Audiovisual Criticism is an annual workshop devoted to the development of audiovisual essays for both undergraduates and graduate students. The workshop is organized by four leading international film and visual studies scholars: Bernd Herzogenrath (Goethe University\, Frankfurt)\, Brian Price (University of Toronto)\, Alessandra Raengo (Georgia State University)\, and Domietta Torlasco (Northwestern University). The goal of the workshop is to help students think critically with\, and not only about\, sounds and images—to do criticism by means of a composite audiovisual language.  The first session took place at Goethe University\, Frankfurt\, July 14-18\, 2025. The topic was RHYTHM: What is rhythm for filmmakers and spectators alike? A repeated pattern\, a heartbeat\, a control mechanism\, an overflow of possibilities…how does it regulate—or release—our affects\, thoughts\, and perceptions? Is rhythm an ethical and political matter? Is there an experience of time that can only be derived from rhythm? Does rhythm present new epistemological possibilities? Participants began developing their video essays in Frankfurt and completed them in the following academic year in consultation with the organizers.  The screening will be followed by Q&A with Domietta Torlasco and Alessandra Raengo.  See the Block Museum website for the full lineup of films!   Total runtime: TRT: approx. 60 mins   \n\nMore Info: https://www.blockmuseum.northwestern.edu/cinema/2026/rhythm-is-a-heartbeat-video-essays-from-frankfurt-and-chicago.html
