This reader is a collection of essays written by Turkish graduate students between 2003 and 2010 for Andreas TreskeÕs seminar ÔImage, Time and MotionÕ at Bilkent University in Ankara, revised and actualized in 2010. Coming from a wide range of disciplines they had studied before, very rarely media or cultural studies, these students brought in their various viewpoints and methods, and tried to integrate their observations and understandings in a seminar related to cinema and new media to discuss and sometimes just to describe the influences of digital media technologies for themselves and their colleagues.
