Call for Proposals for D|N|A Post-Symposium Publication

by Matt on August 15, 2011

Database | Narrative | Archive: An international symposium on nonlinear 
digital storytelling was held in Montréal, 13-15 May 2011. D|N|A 
attracted over sixty educators, artists, filmmakers, scholars and 
technologists from North America, Europe and Australia.

D|N|A was conceived in light of some emergent practices in the digital 
arts and humanities centring on interactivity, the web, documentary, and 
‘new’ media. During what proved to be a highly successful gathering, 
almost forty of the participants gave lightning talks: highly condensed, 
5-minute presentations focused on a ‘burning question’ they each wanted 
to open up for discussion.

As a way to further explore these questions, we invite expressions of 
interest for a post-Symposium, peer-reviewed web publication that will 
be produced in Scalar, a nonlinear experimental publishing platform. 
This open Call For Proposals is divided into seven separate calls, each 
one conceived and written by one of our contributing editors, drawing on 
some of the most pressing questions raised during D|N|A.

Responses can be in any medium suitable for publication on the web: 
linear scholarship; nonlinear creative writing; hypertext; photography; 
sound; video; film, or any combination of these media. The contributing 
editors will make their own editorial selections, which will be overseen 
by the project editors, Matt Soar and Monika Kin Gagnon.

Prospective contributors are asked to prepare an expression of interest 
(up to 300 words) responding to one of the seven questions, and send it 
in the body of an email to the respective contributing editor and cc the 
symposium organizers by Sept. 15th 2011.
