In Bigger Than Life Mary Ann Doane examines how the scalar operations of cinema, especially those of the close-up, disturb and reconfigure the spectator's sense of place, space, and orientation. In the early years of cinema, audiences regarded the monumental close-up, particularly of the face, as grotesque and often horrifying, even as it sought to expose a character's interiority through its magnification of detail and expression. Doane traces the history of scalar transformations from early cinema to the contemporary use of digital technology.
The notion of immersion, Doane contends, is symptomatic of a crisis of location in technologically mediated space and a reconceptualization of position, scale, and Today, large-scale technologies such as IMAX and sound surround strive to dissolve the cinematic frame and invade the spectator's space, "immersing" them in image and sound.
