Colleagues,
With apologies for cross-posting.
We are delighted to publish the second entry for our rolling Volume 9.1, Highway Code (Manchester 10k) a short artist's film by Anthony Ellis which explores whether the rhythms of the city can contribute to the co-authoring of a film, using montage, collage and rephotography to interrogate city spaces before and after the annual Manchester 10K run. The film juxtaposes footage of the everyday transport systems of Manchester with shots of the exceptional use of the same space by runners and spectators of the Manchester 10K, bringing into counterpoint the different rhythms of the city and the embodied practices of those that use it, referencing Lefebvre's theory of "rhythmanalysis" and the work of city-filmmakers Patrick Keiller and John Smith.

Screenworks is the the peer-reviewed online publication of practice research in film and screen media, edited by Dr Charlotte Crofts (UWE Bristol) and Associate Editors: Dr Elan Gamaker (University of Roehampton), Lucy Leake (Plymouth College of Art), Dr Nariman Massoumi (University of Bristol) and Dr Alexander Nevill (San Francisco State University). Screenworks publishes practice research that produces new knowledge in Communication, Media and Cultural Studies, Art and Design, Performing Arts and related fields. We offer a forum for the dissemination and discussion of practice research that includes space for reflection on research contexts. Work is published alongside a research statement, which offers a ‘route map’ of the research process, together with two anonymous reviews, which provide critical feedback on both the work itself and its research context.
Screenworks is supported by Moving Image Research Group and the Digital Cultures Research Centre at University of the West of England (UWE Bristol).
