Calling all potential Poster presenters with interests in:
* Local and regional identities in visual image
* The role of imagery in shaping place meanings and perceptions over time
* Changing forms of still and moving representation of rural and
urban landscapes
We still have some slots available for presenting posters in a
friendly and supportive discursive setting at Projecting the
Regions:People, Identity and Place, a day conference at Manchester
Metropolitan University, Manchester, UK taking place on Thursday 17
September 2009. If these themes interest you and could be shared and
aired in a poster format, we would like to hear from you as soon as
possible. Posters on any kind of related on-going research and
public engagement initatives are most welcome. Come join us and register today!
This one day multi-disciplinary conference is an opportunity to join
in with what should be a stimulating and visually rich exploration
of the relationships between place identities and still and moving
image. So do come along if you have interests in landscape,
photography, film, television and media history, cultural and social
studies, the history of leisure and tourism, regional change,
historical geography, or just a curiosity to find out more.
Please visit the conference website for further details.
