Special Effects and German Silent Film: Techno-Romantic Cinema - Film Culture in Transition
Katharina Loew
This book examines special effects as the embodiment of a “techno-romantic” paradigm that seeks to harness technology – the epitome of modern materialism – as a means for accessing a spiritual realm. Employed to visualize ideas and emotions in a medium-specific way, special effects thus paved the way for film art.
