[ecrea] Fwd: Editor, Journal of Media Practice - Vacancy

>Editor, Journal of Media Practice
>
>
>
>Expressions of interest are sought for this appointment, held since 
>1999 by the founding editor, John Adams (University of 
>Bristol).  John has been highly successful in this role, and the 
>strong position in which he leaves the JMP is a reflection of his 
>able stewardship.
>
>
>
>In only a short time, the JMP has achieved a strong reputation as 
>the peer-reviewed source of research and teaching reflection about 
>media practice.   Published 3 times per annum, it is currently 
>financially supported by two subject associations (AMPE and NAHEMI), 
>and is published by Intellect (further details available from 
><https://webmail.coventry.ac.uk/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.intellectbooks.co.uk/>www.intellectbooks.co.uk). 
>Still the only print-based peer-reviewed journal to focus on 
>practical media teaching and research, it will shortly be joined by 
>a sister publication on DVD from Intellect, ScreenWork. Edited by 
>Jon Dovey (University of Bristol), ScreenWork will provide a related 
>platform for circulating practice-based research, and links between 
>the two publications will be essential.  In addition, JMP supports 
>an annual symposium on research through media practice, and this is 
>expected to continue.
>
>
>
>John Adams is intending to step down after completing the next two 
>issues, and it is therefore envisaged that the new editor will be 
>appointed as soon as possible. The Editorial Advisory Board is 
>seeking interest from individuals who will be supported by their 
>institution, i.e. from those who are not only able to bring 
>appropriate personal skills to the post, but who can also provide a 
>home for the editorial operation.  Currently, the University of 
>Bristol supports the fractional redeployment of an administrator as 
>Editorial Assistant, and provides office and contact support.  It is 
>expected that at least this level of support will be confirmed as 
>available by applicants. In addition the journal currently has two 
>Associate Editors from different HE institutions, and a view will be 
>sought from applicants on the involvement of such associates. For 
>example, an applicant may wish to establish a more team-based 
>editorial approach from a single institution, as well as involving 
>advisors from elsewhere.
>
>
>
>The Editorial Advisory Board would first like to receive, as soon as 
>possible, expressions of interest from suitably experienced and 
>interested applicants.  This should briefly state how the JMP might 
>be supported by both the applicant(s) and the host institution, and 
>should be accompanied by a short CV.  Secondly, the Board will then 
>contact appropriate applicants to ask for a statement of intent, 
>which will outline a more detailed vision for the future development of JMP.
>
>
>
>Please send expressions of interest and a CV by Monday 17th July 
>2006 to the Chair of the Editorial Advisory Board, Susanna Capon 
>(<mailto:(S.Capon /at/ rhul.ac.uk)>(S.Capon /at/ rhul.ac.uk)), to whom specific 
>questions may also be addressed.
