Brinckmann, Elisabeth Bronfen, Kevin Brownlow, Elisabeth Büttner, Paolo Cherchi Usai, Joan Copjec, Aleksandr Derjabin, Diedrich Diederichsen, Edward Dimendberg, Thomas Elsaesser, Helmut Färber, Robert Gitt, Vinzenz Hediger, Ute Holl, Hermann Kappelhoff, Nico de Klerk, Eric de Kuyper, Antonia Lant, John MacKay, Judith Mayne, Laura Mulvey, James Naremore, Enno Patalas, Ramón Reichert, Drehli Robnik, Jonathan Rosenbaum, Heide Schlüpmann, Janet Staiger, Max Tessier, Klaus Theweleit, Yuri Tsivian, Maureen Turim and many more.
