Research interests

Research Interests
David’s research engages with the question of what it means to study a world of cinemas. He interrogates the intersections between cinema and philosophical issues like time, identity, ethics, ecology and attention.

In this field, David is known for work critically engaging with both film and theory, especially the thinking of Gilles Deleuze (around time in particular) and Enrique Dussel (around ethics and colonial modernity).

David is the author/editor of ten books, the most recent being Cinema Against Doublethink: Ethical Encounters with the Lost Pasts of World History (2018), Columbo: Paying Attention 24/7 (2021), and, Contemporary Screen Ethics (2023). 

His works has been shortlisted in the MeCCSA Outstanding Achievement Awards (Monograph of the Year category), and in the BAFTSS annual awards (in the categories of Best Book, Best Edited Collection, and Best Article). He serves on several editorial boards, and is co-editor of the award-winning book series Thinking Cinema (Bloomsbury).

David also conducts research into "small" cinemas like Scotland (e.g. in Scotland: Global Cinema (2009), Cinema at the Periphery (2010), and Visual Culture in the Northern British Archipelago (2018)), Uruguay and South Korea. He studies how their engagement with international markets illuminates the geopolitics of globalization. This work engages with global developments in film/screen tourism and heritage tourism more broadly. 

David has given 80+ invited talks in universities, cultural and educational institutions in 15+ countries across 6 continents. His work has been translated into various languages, including Chinese, Korean, Spanish, French, Portugese and Turkish. He has been sought out for comment by internationally renowned news outlets, including TIME Magazine, the BBC and The Guardian.

David's Academia.edu site contains samples of his work. A taste of some representative recent articles can be accessed online in an open access special issue of Film-Philosophy which David edited, here
