Themed Issue: Eye-Tracking the Moving Image

Guest Edited by Sean Redmond & Craig Batty

‘In a landmark special edition of Refractory, guest editors Sean Redmond and Craig Batty draw together articles that examine – from a range of interdisciplinary perspectives – how eye tracking can be employed to make better critical sense of the moving image. From discussions of Up! and Saving Private Ryan, to translation, subtitling and text; and from the cold eyes of Sherlock to the affecting sounds of war, the articles draw upon eye tracking data to see deeper into the moving image’.
