Taberham has written an accessible and brilliant text, which can foster interest and passion for theory in others. And in this sense, LIP makes for an ideal source for satisfying a variety of curricular purposes from film theory courses, to courses on the history and theory of avant-garde and experimental cinema, to methodologies of film analysis. LIP is not only, then, a solid, intriguingly uncommon, and welcome new work in cognitive film theory; it is also a versatile and flexible pedagogical tool, which could successfully enrich, if properly framed, students' experiences in film studies. * Projections This lucid, informative text allows readers to consider the ongoing relevance of-and perhaps the need for-avant-garde filmmaking in a world driven increasingly by the economic demands of mainstream spectacle. * William Brown, University of Roehampton Author InformationPaul Taberham is Associate Professor in Animation Studies at the Arts University Bournemouth.
