Giuliana Bruno on Filmic Architectonics

"To build a theoretical map of an architectonics as mobile as that of motion pictures, one must use a travling lens and make room for the sensory spatiality of film, for our apprehension of space, including filmic space, occurs through an engagement with touch and movement. Our site-seeing tour follows this intimate path of mobilized visual space, "erring*" from architectural and artistic sites to moving pictures. Haptically driven, the atlas finds a design for filmic space within the delicate cartography of emotion, that sentient place that exists betwen the map, the wall, and the screen." (16)

*Bruno refers to erring as straying from a path
