[ecrea] Call for Papers: Besides the Screen Symposium

Tue Jun 08 19:21:07 GMT 2010


>Call for Papers ­ "Besides the Screen: Moving 
>Images during Distribution, Exhibition and Consumption"
>
>27th November 2010 - Goldsmiths, London
>
>New media technologies impact cinema well beyond 
>the screen; they also promote the reorganization 
>of its logic of distribution, modes of 
>consumption and viewing regimes. Once, it was 
>video and television broadcast that disturbed 
>traditional cinematographic experience, 
>revealing the image as soon as it was captured 
>and bringing it into the home of the audience. 
>Nowadays, computer imaging and online networks 
>cause an even stronger effect to the medium, 
>increasing the public agency in the movie market dynamics.
>
>In order to understand how these significant 
>changes in the modes of accessing and 
>distributing moving images might affect 
>cinematographic experience, economy and 
>historiography, we are obliged to rethink not 
>only of its future, but its past as well. 
>Besides the Screen is a one-day international 
>symposium that aims to map research projects on 
>new and old forms of moving image distribution, 
>exhibition and consumption. The conference will 
>be hosted in Goldsmiths College (University of 
>London) in November 2010, with the support of the Goldsmiths Graduate School.
>
>We invite proposals for paper presentations in 
>the form of 250-word abstracts, to be sent to 
>the email (besidesthescreen /at/ gmail.com) until June 
>25th 2010. The list of selected works will be 
>published online at www.besidesthescreen.blogspot.com.
