Sheila Coursey is an Assistant Professor in the Department of English at the College of Arts and Sciences, Saint Louis University, specializing in late medieval and early modern literature, theater studies, and digital humanities. Her work critically examines audience engagement with crime narratives in historical drama and their modern cultural afterlives. Dr. Coursey's educational background includes: Ph.D. in English, University of Michigan, 2019 M.A. in English, University of Michigan, 2015 B.A. in English, College of the Holy Cross, 2013 Her research centers on spectatorship dynamics in pre-modern English drama, particularly domestic tragedies exploring communal responses to crime.

Javier Luri Rodríguez serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Specific Didactics at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC), operating within the branch of Social and Legal Sciences with a specialized focus on Didactics of Plastic Expression under Educational Sciences. His research program critically examines the convergence of film theory, visual arts pedagogy, and technological innovation. Key investigations explore how immersive cinema reconfigures bodily engagement with moving images, the historical evolution of spectatorship from 19th-century visual tourism to contemporary digital environments, and the disruptive impact of artificial intelligence on creative media production—particularly in cinematic screenwriting education. Recent publications (2019-2025) demonstrate a cohesive analytical thread tracing the spectator's journey through technological transformations of visual culture. Works consistently interrogate the dialectic between image mobility and embodied perception, from mobile panoramas to AI-generated content, revealing how technological mediation reshapes cultural consumption and artistic creation across historical periods. Dr. Luri Rodríguez maintains active scholarly engagement through his ORCID profile (0000-0003-2086-3797) and institutional correspondence at javier.luri@ulpgc.es, contributing to foundational discourse in visual media education without documented external funding or formal advising roles.
