In-dependent Art Shi-Nema: Decomposing the Main Melody via Monu-mental Time-Images -- 5. Transnational Sci-Fi Shi-nema: Or, Diary Notes from “Westworld” Regarding Neoliberal Dulosis, “Academic” Automatons and the Franchised Post-historical University in the Era of Global “Excellence” -- 6. Shi-Nematic Games (Casino Capitalism) -- 7. Epilogue: Disneyfied Dreamwork Shinema-Tracing a New "Old" Path Through the Inauthentic "Traditional.

This book dives into the mise-en-scène of contemporary China to explore the “becoming cinema” of Chinese cities, societies, and subjectivities. Set in the wake of China’s radical and rapid period of urbanization and infrastructural transformation, and situating itself in the processual city of Ningbo, the book combines empirical, ficto-critical, and philosophical methods to generate a dynamic account of everyday life as new forms of consumer culture bed in. Harnessing a Realist approach that allows for different scales of analysis, the book zooms in on five architectural assemblages including: surreal real estate showrooms; a fragmented history museum; China’s “first and best” Sino-foreign university; a new “Old town”; and weird gamified “any-now(here)-spaces.” Together these modern arrangements and machines for living cast light upon the broader picture sweeping up greater China. .
