Featuring the work of specialists from Europe, the United States and
Asia, the conference works from the assumption that economic development
requires industrial organization, while industrial organization
requires communication and communication requires media.
Bringing together perspectives from cinema and media studies, economic history and science and technology studies, this conference aims to develop an analytical framework for understanding the uses of art in industry and the media culture of industry.
The conference is open to the public and includes screenings of rare films from archives in the United States, Great Britain, Italy and Central and Eastern Europe.
