Conclusion: Toward a Transdisciplinary Critical Theory of Film. 330 $aThis book provides an interdisciplinary analysis of film in the context of the Anthropocene: the new geological era in which human beings have collectively become a force of nature. Daniel White draws on perspectives in philosophy, ecology, and cybernetics (the science of communication and control in animals and machines) to explore human self-understanding through film in the new era. The classical figure of Janus, looking both to the future and the past, serves as a guide throughout the study. Both feature and documentary films are considered. . 606 $aPhilosophy 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aEthnology 606 $aPhilosophy of Man$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E28000 606 $aAudio-Visual Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413190 606 $aCultural Anthropology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411060 615 0$aPhilosophy. 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 14$aPhilosophy of Man. 615 24$aAudio-Visual Culture. 615 24$aCultural Anthropology. 676 $a128 700 $aWhite$b Daniel$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0988530 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300622003321 996 $aFilm in the Anthropocene$92260414 997 $aUNINA
