Pluriverso culturale e mediale: transiti e metamorfosi. Un’introduzione

Abstract

The escalation of population movements – migratory flows, tourism, business or training travels etc. – is affecting the human experience in the global culture. The main implications and impact of this transformation underway can be traced through five macro-areas of concern: the different forms of the journey, the relationship between photography and travel, the interpretation of migration flows, the liquid passage between photography and migratory phenomenon and, lastly, the increasing movie tourism. In what we may define a metamorphic era, the notions of “border”, “stranger”, “identity” are being called into question by a complex interrelation system among these areas.
