Jon Boorstin is an American film producer and author whose book 'The Hollywood Eye' (1990) analyzed the visceral, voyeuristic, and vicarious responses films produce in audiences.
Boorstin's taxonomy of cinematic pleasures — the vicarious, the voyeuristic, and the visceral — gave Nolan a theoretical framework for understanding why IMAX produces a qualitatively different audience experience than standard projection.
