- Apr 106:30 PMFMS Speaker Series: Giorgio BiancorossoCampus: Medford/Somerville campus Location Details: Barnum LL08 Open to Public: Yes Primary Audience: Students (Undergraduate) Event Type: Lecture/Presentation/Seminar Event Subject: Arts Event Sponsor Department/Area: Film and Media Studies program,Music department RSVP Information: https://www.fms-narratives.blog/event-details-registration/fms-speaker-series-giorgio-biancorosso Link: https://www.fms-narratives.blog/event-details-registration/fms-speaker-series-giorgio-biancorosso Remixing Wong Kar-wai is a poetic, wide-ranging evocation of cult filmmaker Wong Kar-wai's modus operandi. Dubbed once the "best ear in the industry," Wong Kar-wai crafts the soundtracks of his films by jettisoning original scores in favor of commercial recordings. Remixing Wong Kar-wai examines the combinatorial practice at the heart of Wong’s cinema to retheorize musical borrowing, appropriation, and repurposing in Hong Kong cinema and beyond. In this book talk, author Giorgio Biancorosso will discuss the ways in which we can restore listening to the center of film studies—and oblivion to that of culture. Giorgio Biancorosso’s work investigates the boundaries of music and sound in the theater, cinema, and digital media. He is the author of Situated Listening: The Sound of Absorption in Classical Cinema (Oxford University Press, 2016) and Remixing Wong Kar Wai: Music, Bricolage, and the Aesthetics of Oblivion (Duke University Press, 2024). Biancorosso is the co-founder and editor of the journal Sound-Stage-Screen, and the coeditor, with Roberto Calabretto, of Scoring Italian Cinema: Patterns of Collaboration (Routledge, forthcoming). Currently a professor of music at the University of Hong Kong, Biancorosso is also active as a dramaturg and stage director. His staging of The Longest Days and the Shortest Days, a tech-cantata by Eugene Birman, was premiered at the Gulbenkian Auditorium (Lisbon) in 2022. Registration not required, but recommended to receive event updates and reminders. Co-sponsored by Tufts Film and Media Studies Program and Tufts Department of Music.
