Media Mappers on the Globe Join us for a mini-symposium showcasing the Media Mapper, a geospatial visualization tool developed with support from the Center for Advanced Research in Global Communication.

On Monday, we had the pleasure of hosting a screening of "Working Girls" followed by a conversation with director Paromita Vohra. The event also marked the launch of The Philly Cinematheque, a new initiative led by our doctoral fellows Gabriella Bellot and Anna Murphy.

The Philly Cinematheque, housed in the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania, brings a community-focused approach to an eclectic program of global film and television screenings. In doing so, it functions as both an informal gathering place and an intentional intervention to further embed cinema—as a modality, a space, and a method—in communications scholarship.

Please mark your calendars for the upcoming screenings!
