  A sustained inquiry into film by geographers began in the 1980s. Films were studied as cultural texts and as cultural commodities. Film as text assumes that it is authored, read, and interpreted according to the unique positionalities and contexts of viewing. Geographers deploying the author-text-reader (ATR) model tend to operate from a variety of anti-essentialist standpoints and have used this approach to answer questions about how the internal meanings of films are produced and consumed, paying particular attention to issues such as the city, mobility, landscape, gender, sexuality, and geopolitics. Conversely, geographers interested in film as a cultural commodity, an object of symbolic value circulating within the global economy, may choose instead to follow a production-product-distribution-consumption approach. According to this model, the significance of cinematic goods cannot be wholly understood by focusing on the film texts’ internal meaning but must be examined in relation to the economic conditions of their production and consumption. Film is therefore an assemblage of textual and extratextual processes and actors. Research in this area has focused on issues such as the industrial complex of film production, distribution, and consumption; the transnational practices of film industries following the information revolution of the 1970s; and the ensuing cultural hegemony of Hollywood on the global stage. Although the continued use of the text metaphor has been the subject of debate since the turn of the twenty-first century, this approach and its attention to film content has come to prevail in film geography research and hence constitutes a large portion of the works selected in this article. There has been a rising interest in cinematic cartography with some special journal collections published as notable books, including Tom Conley’s Cartographic Cinema in 2007 (Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press); a special issue on cinematic cartography (Cartographic Journal 46, no. 1 [2009]), edited by Sébastien Caquard and D. R. Fraser Taylor; Film, Mobility and Urban Space: A Cinematic Geography of Liverpool by Les Roberts in 2012 from Liverpool University Press; the special collection “#Mapping” in NECSUS 18, no. 2 (2018) by Avezzù, Castro, and Fidotta; and Media’s Mapping Impulse by Lukinbeal et al. in 2019 (Stuttgart: Franz Steiner Verlag). More recent publications are reflective of place-based film studies where landscapes are produced or consumed. A special issue, Doing Film Geography (Volume 87, Supplement 1), with fifteen papers was edited by Chris Lukinbeal and Elisabeth Sommerlad for GeoJournal in 2022. The editors’ work reflects a growing movement toward empiric place-based fieldwork paired with a variety of analytic techniques, such as hermeneutics, economics, cartographic, and nonrepresentational theories, to name a few.

Brunn, Ph.D. (Emeritus Professor) Dept. of Geography, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506-0027 brunn@uky.edu Most of us are following the daily news about this pandemic and reflecting about what geographers and others in related space, place and environment disciplines and fields can/might contribute to our understanding. I believe that geographic perspectives play a very useful and important role in our understanding about “what is happening where and why.” Thus, this proposed volume. Maps, especially innovative maps, on various topics will also be an important feature of many chapters.

  In this paper, we examine just exactly what constitutes a cinematic city.  Cinema’s origins lie with cities and specifically with the processes of rapid urbanization and industrialization in Western civilization during the early modern period.  At this time, new devices, modes of transportation, and architectural innovations allowed individuals to walk through or past different orderings of space and time that created a new form of spatio-visuality.  We then examine research trends cinematic cities from 1960-2017.  Early themes contrasted cities with the countryside and the anti-urban sentiment that pervaded cinema in 1960-1980s.  More recently, research has focused on multicultural exchange, global cities, specific genres, utopian and dystopian cities, urban planning, postcolonialism, reflection on the right-wing perception of cities, and suburbs.

  In 2005 a screenwriting book was published showing us what we had already known all along: Most Hollywood movies are the same. Until then, however, it was not clear exactly why or in what way this was the case. What separated this book, Blake Snyder’s Save the Cat, from its predecessors, was the absolute specificity of Snyder’s formula, as well as its widespread adoption by the film industry. Rather than providing general advice on how to develop a unique and innovative three act story, Snyder constructed a precise formula of fifteen “beats,” or specific events, that not only must happen, but that must happen on the same page of every script. This formula, known as “Save the Cat,” has now become synonymous with Hollywood blockbuster filmmaking. Similar to the introduction of continuity editing to filmmaking at the beginning of cinema’s history, this formula prefigures the scope of possibility within which filmmaking can operate, subconsciously training viewers with each subsequent movie what to expect and when. In short, as we argue in this paper, “Save the Cat” has become cinema’s lingua franca, or common language, allowing Hollywood to transcend international cultural and linguistic differences. This lingua franca of the silver screen has never been more vital to Hollywood's success: With the turn of the new millennium, international ticket sales—especially in the ever-expanding markets of China, Russia, and Brazil—dominate American box office revenues. Of note, these new foreign markets are not buying tickets for all types of American films, but are mainly focusing on spectacle-driven action and science fiction movies in 3D and IMAX formats. To understand the role of Hollywood’s lingua franca on the industry’s global expansion—or rather, the effect that global expansion is having on the types of narratives that Hollywood producers are interested in making—we begin this paper by describing Snyder’s formula and document its pervasiveness in American blockbuster films. Following this, we turn toward a case study of Transformers 4: Age of Extinction, a recent blockbuster that peaked in China, the largest of the new markets. Here, we demonstrate the application of the Save the Cat formula and note the emphasis that these films place on special effects and action. Finally, we argue that the continual drive for capital represented by the "Chinafication" of Hollywood movies is a new form of censorship that strangles creativity by dictating what gets made. Screenplays that succeed in becoming Hollywood films are no longer complex narratives or culture-specific humor, but rather, one that provide visceral and emotional shock, fast-paced action, jarring explosions, and visually impressive special effects.

  Cosmic Explorer (CE) is a next-generation ground-based gravitational-waveobservatory that is being designed in the 2020s and is envisioned to beginoperations in the 2030s together with the Einstein Telescope in Europe. The CEconcept currently consists of two widely separated L-shaped observatories inthe United States, one with 40 km-long arms and the other with 20 km-long arms.This order of magnitude increase in scale with respect to the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRAobservatories will, together with technological improvements, deliver an orderof magnitude greater astronomical reach, allowing access to gravitational wavesfrom remnants of the first stars and opening a wide discovery aperture to thenovel and unknown. In addition to pushing the reach of gravitational-waveastronomy, CE endeavors to approach the lifecycle of large scientificfacilities in a way that prioritizes mutually beneficial relationships withlocal and Indigenous communities. This article describes the (scientific, costand access, and social) criteria that will be used to identify and evaluatelocations that could potentially host the CE observatories.[Journal_ref: ]

  This submission comes from research from Mallory's MS-GIST Master's Project (graduated summer 2020). https://muse-jhu-edu.ezproxy3.library.arizona.edu/article/463904/pdf In the late 1930s, the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) used a process called redlining to section off districts in an attempt to signal the level of risk to lenders. Consequently, lenders felt justified in turning away non-white borrowers, effectively leading to segregated communities. This practice carried on through the mid-1960s, after which some communities underwent socio-demographic transformations due to gentrification, urban renewal, and deindustrialization, amongst other things. This paper analyzes the current demographic trends in Boston, Detroit, and Los Angeles to determine to what extent the resulting segregation from redlining practices has persisted. Redlining and census data from 1930 and 2020 were obtained and analyzed in order to compare the racial demographics over time. White vs. non-white population in redline districts in 1930 versus 2020 were compared in each of these cities. Whereas percent change between white majority and non-white minority provides a demographic trend over time, a local spatial autocorrelation (LISA) analysis helped to identify dense areas of minority population. Lastly, the index dissimilarity, interaction, and isolation were used to better expose persistent levels of segregation. This research provides one example of how historical GIS analysis can be done using diverse datasets to show spatio-temporal patterns of importance to ongoing issues of social justice and inequality

  Understanding the contrast and challenge of cinematic cartographies may lie in querying what John Pickles (2004, 89) calls the “cartographic paradox.” The cartographic paradox is that linear perspective and projectionism inform cartographic practice. Yet, these two scopic regimes are both complementary and contradictory. The cartographic paradox has been mobilized by montage, animation and motion pictures. The penultimate technology of linear perspective is cinema, whereas the penultimate technology of projectionism is GIS and animated cartography. I argue that understanding the mobilization of these scopic regimes may lead to the production of affective geovisualizations. ;Your Role: Solo Author;Full Citation: Lukinbeal, Chris. 2010.

  This paper explores the use of a new pedagogy, the rock art stability index (RASI), to engender deeper understanding of weathering science concepts by students. Owing to its dynamic nature, RASI represents a quintessential actor-network for weathering science, because it links task in the landscape with an active material practice and an alternative materialistic worldview recently called for in positivistic science, to create place. Using concept maps as an assessment tool, 571 college undergraduate students and 13 junior high school integrated science students (ages 12-13) were evaluated for increased learning potential between pre- and post-field experiences. Further, this article demonstrates that when students use RASI to learn the fundamental complex science of weathering they make in-depth connections between weathering form and process not achieved through traditional, positivistic weathering pedagogy. We argue that RASI draws upon inherent actor-networks which allow students to link weathering form and process to an animate conceptualization of landscape. Conceptualizing landscape as sentient actor networks removes weathering science disciplinary connections and their inherent pedagogic practices. Our focus in this paper is not to challenge weathering ontology and epistemology, but rather we argue that there is a need for a pedagogical paradigm shift in weathering science.;Your Role: Second Author;Collaborative with graduate student: Yes;Other collaborative: Yes;Specify other collaborative: Casey Allen, Assistant Professor of Geography and Environmental Sciences, University of Colorado, Denver.

  Neighborhood residents and police have distinct views about crime and safety in their community and/or beat, but comparing these perceptions can be difficult. This study uses mental maps to elicit perceptions of crime and safety from residents and police officers in the Garfield neighborhood of Phoenix. Thirty-eight residents, five police officers and one volunteer from the neighborhood patrol were asked to draw their perceptions of safe/low crime and unsafe/high crime areas on base maps. Data were then georectrified, coded, and aggregated for analysis in a geographic information system. Aggregated spatial perceptions between the two groups were compared to crime data. Results showed that police perception was heavily influenced by reported crimes while resident perceptions were not. By utilizing maps of resident perceptions of crime, police may have a new tool with which to pinpoint unreported or new crime activity. ;Your Role: Second Author;Full Citation: Lopez, Natalie and Chris Lukinbeal. 2010.

  The Salt River Valley history is often characterized as a boomtown narrative that highlights Anglo population explosion and rapid suburban sprawl following WWII. Frequently overlooked is the fundamental role that Mexicans played in the early suburbanization process through the formation of urban colonias, or suburban Mexican settlements. Early Mexican suburbs, despite their rural atmosphere, were connected to the pre-WWII urbanization process in the Salt River Valley. This research seeks to amend and clarify the urban historical record by documenting the diverse and dispersed array of Mexican suburban settlements, a process generated by industrial agriculture, decentralization, and residential segregation.

  The paired US-Mexico border cities of Nogales, Arizona, and Nogales, Sonora (known as Ambos Nogales), are the largest and most rapidly growing cities on the Arizona-Sonora border. The growing urban population is producing extensive land-use and land-cover change in the region. The continued expansion of paired cities presents many environmental management and urban planning challenges. This research employs a cellular automata model to examine the difference between the patterns and rates of urban growth and land-use change under differentenvironmental and planning strategies in the two cities over the next 20 years (2004-2025). A series of Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) images acquired over different time periods (October 1985, July 1991, February 1995, September 2000, and July 2004) were used to simulate urban growth using four planning scenarios, namely business as usual, environmental protection, road network, and antigrowth strategy. The study reveals that the unchecked urban growth trend in the business as usual, environmental protection, and road network scenarios simulates significant (99.5%)edge developments or organic growth throughout the region. In contrast, the antigrowth scenario, which emphasizes environmental protection, allows for more green and open space and is therefore considered the most desirable for planning future urban land use and development.;Your Role: Third Author, Field Research, Analysis, Writer;Full Citation: Myint, Soe, Jyoti Jain, Chris Lukinbeal, Francisco Lara-Valencia. 2010.

  In a media saturated world of globalization, information flow and knowledge economies, an interesting paradox exists: geographic literacy appears to be on the decline while geographic information is on the rise. In this introduction to a collection of essays on geographies of the media, we explore this paradox and use Baudrillard's (1994) work on Simulacra and Simulation to argue that increased mediated information does not produce more meaning, but rather leads to a catastrophe of meaning and the medium. Drawing from McLuhan's axiom, “the medium is the message,” we posit that with more mediated information there is less meaningful information and as such we need to address geographic media literacy as a primary mode through which to address geographic literacy. ;Your Role: Lead Author;Full Citation: Lukinbeal, Chris, and Jim Craine. 2009.

  Abstract This article explores the implementation of critical pedagogic practices into a graduate level landscape seminar Web site. Critical pedagogy seeks to reconfigure student-teacher relationships and disrupt embedded power regimes within academia and society. Critical pedagogic practices create a dialogue amongst learners, where everyone has a stake in the learning process. By turning all students into instructors on the course Web site, a virtual community was created that allowed for theories and identities to be openly explored and contested. In the seminar, the inherent hierarchies of power between teacher-students were removed, allowing for the formation of a critical moral consciousness that permitted deep learning.

  Motivated by a need to engage students in the critical evaluation of visual information, and by a desire to teach students how to use digital technologies as a way of exploring and expressing geographical constructs and processes, the geography departments at Arizona's three universities sought and received funding from the Arizona Board of Regents for learner-centered curricular development organized around the theme of "Mediated Geographies." In this paper, we explore how critical pedagogy and learner-centered education strategies were used to engage students in semester-long documentary and photo essay projects.

  Zusamrrienfassung: Der Film Cold Mountain (2003) ist im North Carolina der 1860er Jahre angesiedelt und spielt vor dem Hintergrund des amerikanischen Burgerkriegs. Der verwundete Konfoderierte Inman (Jude Law) entflieht dem Lazarett-Bett in Raleigh, um sich auf den riskanten Weg nach Hause, nach Cold Mountain, zu machen, wo er seine Liebste (Nicole Kidman) wieder sehen mochte. Der Cold Mountain, mit einer Hohe von 1.838 m, befindet sich in den Blue Ridge Mountains im wesdichen North Carolina. Die literarische Vorlage des Films bezieht ihre Besonderheit vom einzigartigen sense of place sowie der lokalen Kultur dieser Region. Dessen scheinbar ungeachtet drehte Anthony Minghella den Film in Rumanien. Dies geschah aus zwei verschiedenen Griinden: Wirtschaftlichkeit und geographischem Realismus. Diese zwei Elemente sind auch die bestimmenden Faktoren fiir runaway-Yro&ukxionen. Der vorliegende Aufsatz untersucht, inwiefern diese Elemente den Film Cold Mountain beriihren.

  Zusammenfassung: Filmgeographie: ein neues Teilgebiet Anhand des Films The Day After Tomorrow versuchen die Autoren zukiinftige Betatigungsfelder einer Filmgeographie zu ent wickeln und darzustellen. Als erstes Feld werden geopolitische Implikationen aufgezeigt, die durch filmisch kommunizierte Bilder und deren zugehorige Erzahlungen zu einer groBeren und iibergeordneten Vorstellungswelt fuhren. Das zweite Betati gungsfeld liegt im Bereich kultureller Praktiken, die dem Medium Film eine zentrale Funktion in der Konstruktion sozial raumlicher Bedeutung zuweist, indem diese definiert, in Frage gestellt und immer wieder neu verhandelt werden. Der dritte Strang filmgeographischer Betatigung liegt in der Betrachtung von der Globalisierung bestimmter Kulturindustrien und deren raumkonstituierenden Kommunikationsstromen, die kulturelle Zuschreibungen angleichen und weltweit konsumerabel machen. Als Abschluss gilt die Aufmerksamkeit der Rolle filmischer Darstellung und Konzeptionalisierung im Hinblick auf die ?Krise der Representation" unter den Aspekten Realismus, Ideologic und Macht.

  During the later half of the 1980s through the mid 1990s the American film production industry experienced significant growth due to an increase in the production of television shows. Because of this growth, the economic geography of film production changed dramatically. I examine how the film production market has changed over the period 1984–1997, using a modified version of Storper and Christopherson's (1985) film market model of developed centers, second-order centers, edge-centers and occasional sites. I modify this model by including two new factors in the locational decision process: one, the effects of increased television production on the film market model; and two, the availability of different types of landscapes within regional film production centers.

  Abstract The geographies of Hollywood are multiple, contradictory, ephemeral and tangible. Our preconceived conceptions of space and place play a dynamic role in what elements we tend to focus on when discussing the cultural industry of American cinema. This essay uses Hollywood as a metaphor for the American film production industry and a historical geography of production as a framework to explore major spatial and structural changes within this industry from its inception to the present. It highlights teaching methods and materials from the course A Geography of Film at Southern Connecticut State University. Mode of production relates to the economic process where capital, labor, knowledge and imagination are blended to produce a culturalized product for consumption. The American film industry is a fine example of the commodification of culture.

  Geographers' interest in film has increased during the last 20 years. Methodological and theoretical perspectives tend, however, to be bipolar and reflect either cognitive or social approaches. Work reflecting these approaches is reviewed with geographic research grounded in transactionalism and postmodernism as examples. A geographic view of film that recognizes the importance of more than one theoretical framework, positions the cognitive and social in a continuum reaching from the individual to the societal, and makes traditional notions of scale antiquated is recommended. Research by geographers contesting the assumed objectivity in documentaries is reviewed as are geographers' contributions to understanding the construction of meaning of urban and natural settings in films. Suggestions for future directions in film research are made.

  This study reviews the major theories of visual search processes and applies some of their concepts to searching for multivariate point symbols in a map environment. The act of searching a map for information is a primary activity undertaken during map-reading. The complexity of this process will vary, of course, with symbol design and map content. Multivariate symbols, for example, will be more difficult to search for efficiently than univariate symbols. The purpose of this research was to examine the cognitive processes used by map readers when searching for multivariate point symbols on a map. The experiment used Chernoff Faces as the test symbol, and a symbol-detection task to assess how accurately and how efficiently target symbols composed of different combinations of facial features could be detected. Of particular interest was assessing the role that different combinations of symbol dimensions and different combinations of symbol parts played in moderating search efficiency. Subject reaction times and error rates were used to evaluate the efficiency of the searches. Results suggested all searches employed serial search processes, although feature searches (those in which a target symbol consists of a unique feature) were by far the easiest for subjects to complete. It was also demonstrated that hierarchical relationships could be manipulated within symbols to increase search efficiency for searches in which the target does not have a unique feature (conjunctive search).

  Landscape portrayal in film and in comics influences our understanding and perception of the world. The cityscape of the movie Dick Tracy (1990) is Warren Beatty’s interpretation of the cityscape portrayed in Chester Gould’s (1930) comic strip of the same name. Each rendition offers clues to the social milieu in which they were created. Both cityscapes are generic, reflect anti-urban sentiment, and offer a simplistic, moralistic view of reality.

  Rapid urbanization has led to an ever increasing proportion of our population living in cities and surrounding suburbs. With this increase, the actual and perceived quality of intensely humanized urban and suburban landscapes grows in importance. As humans we long for a habitat, a landscape, in which we can develop our full potential. How well do suburban landscapes currently meet our needs? This paper presents an overview of three suburban landscape types in the East Bay. Recurring and unique elements found in each type are discussed. Views on suburban landscapes are reviewed. And, finally, we argue that these landscapes are much more than "walled gardens", not only are they integral parts of suburbia, but, as a whole comprise an American symbol.
