>CALL FOR PANELS
>The 2003 Visible Evidence Conference is the eleventh in a
>series of major international and interdisciplinary
>conferences on the role of film and video as witness and
>voice of social reality. The conference encompasses a wide
>range of cultural, political, social, historical,
>ethnographic and pedagogical questions and welcomes
>perspectives from such fields (in addition to film studies)
>as anthropology, architecture, art history, ethnic studies,
>ethnography, gay and lesbian studies, history, journalism,
>law, medicine, political science, psycho-social studies,
>sociology, urban studies and women's studies.
>
>In addition, the conference seeks to expand beyond a purely
>academic schema and make links with filmmakers, curators and
>producers, in order to engage in debates on contemporary
>documentary practice and to explore the space between the
>perspectives of scholars and cultural producers and
>promoters. The conference programme will include screenings
>curated by Vertigo Magazine and DocHouse.
>This is an open call for panels. We encourage potential
>participants to think about documentary in as wide a way as
>possible. We also welcome suggestions for alternative modes
>of delivery which maximise the potential for discussion,
>for example, workshop sessions. We would also like to build
>on the relations established in previous conferences
>between documentary studies in different parts of the world.
>
>Given the time and place of Visible Evidence XI, we would
>like to encourage as especially relevant themes, panels on
>- war reporting - national and foreign perspectives on the
>British documentary tradition - perspectives for
>independent documentary outside television
>

>so please note that there will only be a limited number of
