AIMS AND SCOPE
In the last decades, narratives, as symbolic tools for keeping, fixing and
sharing ideas and experiences, have undergone deep transformations. The
diversity of narrative supports, the technological tools being employed,
and even the deep changes affecting the late modern societies have caused
transformations in the classical and linear narrative paradigm.

Not only in cinema, but also in TV, videogames and other media, we are
witnessing an intensive use of increasingly complex narratives, based on
hypermediatic, rhizomatic, modular, branching and fragmented narratives,
and its constant presence in the public and private space, including the
pervasiveness of transmedia and interactive proposals.

In this special edition of the CITAR Journal, we aim to study the
audiovisual narrative - specially experimental and nonclassical narratives
- in close dialogue with creations of contemporary cinema, TV, cinematic
art, videogames, animation, audiovisual advertising, interactive
installations, location games and other expressive uses of the moving
image.
