The need to establish something essential about the cinema has become increasingly urgent as its definition felt to erode. Cinema has always been awash in flows of its own sliding signifiers, its variable audience, and its indefinite intertextuality; but more recently it has started dissolving into amorphous processes with names like media, visula culture, digital entertainment, and information. Cinema's morphing into future incarnations is a dominant fantasy in image study today, despite the near doubling of the number of cinema screens in the USA since 1975.
