The objective of this course is to introduce students to the landscape of film sound as it is and has been employed by a broad range of filmmakers from the early part of the last century to the present, with special emphasis on experimental investigation in that use. Students will view and listen to numerous examples of films as well as listen to music and sound as it was intended by the artist to function abstractly, descriptively, expressively, and sculpturally. This will be concurrent with a brief overview of technical developments in the area of recording as it affected the filmmakers use (or not) of film sound as well as practical applications and experiments in image and sound relationships.

Writing requires
distance—emotional as well as spatial. It plays itself out through the constant
metamorphoses of editing and reediting.
It is always a double action, the gamble of two competing visions. The text that congeals immediately is a rare
miracle. This explains why writing in a
language that is not one’s own provides a distancing mechanism, a jolt that
stimulates linguistic and psychological examination. Writing in a foreign tongue liberates our most intimate
stories, breaking taboos and revealing
forbidden and sacred realms. In this seminar, we will examine these questions
through works written by Moroccan authors who have had to express themselves in
a language other than their own (French or English). First, we will consider present the idiosyncratic aspects of
these texts, their place within the Arabic world, and within Muslim religion.
We will focus on Mohamed Choukri’s autobiographical novel For Bread Alone, translated in English from the Arabic by Paul
Bowles. Secondly, we will concentrate on the more philosophical aspect of
writing—that mysterious mouthpiece of our intimate and secret identity. The
instructor will evoke his own relationship to writing, his split condition as a
writer stuck between two cultures and two languages. It is this particular position that students will be encouraged
to analyze: they will be summoned to collective writing exercises, working on themes that students and
instructor will have selected jointly in connection with the main topic of the
seminar. Abdellah Taia is a Moroccan
writer. He has been living in Paris for
the past five years. He has published three novellas in French in
Des Nouvelles du Maroc (Paris: Ed. Paris-Méditerranée, 1999) and Mon Maroc
(Paris: Ed. Séguier, 2000). His second
book, Le Rouge du Tarbouche, will
appear in France and in Morocco in 2004.
His writings have been mostly autobiographical. Abdellah Taia writes regularly for Moroccan
newspapers and is preparing at the Sorbonne a doctoral dissertation on the
painter Fragonard.
