  A profile of the work of the Cambridge University Moving Image Studio (CUMIS), presenting the argument that new developments in digital media are absolutely dependent on an understanding of traditional excellence. The book discusses: amiation; navigable architectural environments; moving image narrativity; questions of truth and representation; virtuality/reality; synthetic imaging; and interactivity. The broad analysis of contemporary research, teaching and media production of the book should be of interest to those working or studying in the areas of multimedia, architecture, film and television.
