HOLO-CINEMATICS: An Integral Approach to Understanding the Language of the Moving Image. An exploration of the unique language of the moving image in all its evolving forms using theoretical and perceptual paradigms from Integral Theory, most notably the holonic lens. A new integrally-informed analytical methodology is presented and the use of this lens appears to provide one of the most accurate ways of analyzing and understanding how cinematic works communicate with us.

STRUCTURES OF CINEMATIC CONSCIOUSNESS. This white paper is a preliminary mapping of how stages of human development and the structures of consciousness that make up each stage are embedded in moving image-based artifacts such as movies, television, online and mobile video, video games, virtual reality, augmented reality and mixed reality mediums. These mappings are based on a meta-analysis of hundreds of moving image artifacts cross-referenced with research on stages of human development, structures of individual and collective human consciousness, human perception, creative expression, and cultural and social anthropology. This research suggests that human beings project their structures of consciousness into their creative works. This in turn appears to create similar composites of structures of consciousness embedded in these works. In a sense these embedded consciousness structures create a kind of cinematic consciousness that lives within the constructed cinematic reality of these moving images. Integral Cinema Project, White Paper No. 3, December 2018.
