DOCUVERSE 2018: Expanding documentary: Ecologies and dialogues


*CALL FOR PROPOSALS*

Since its inception in 2016, Docuverse has been aiming to bring together 
a diverse range of people from independent filmmakers and artists to 
research-practitioners and industry representatives. With its third 
iteration, our symposium will continue to foster these 
cross-disciplinary conversations that are increasingly necessary to 
navigate the expanded documentary landscape.

For our annual event on the 9th of February 2018 at RMIT University in 
Melbourne, we invite contributors from different backgrounds to open 
dialogues into various directions:

  * between filmmaking, programming and design thinking
  * around points of tension and contact between different approaches
    and skillsets
  * on how to navigate challenges that we cannot find clear answers to
  * or any other aspect you deem relevant for advancing expanded
    documentary further

Following the idea that the electricity comes in the /exchange/, we 
specifically welcome experimental and more dynamic formats such as 
in-conversations, provocation-and-response or incubator workshops. To 
kick things off, on Thursday the 8th February, we will host a 
pre-conference evening including screenings of submitted projects and 
the launch of our e-Book. If you have a creative project you would like 
to show, a conversation proposal, or another format for a presentation, 
please send us a few sentences about your work or idea accompanied with 
a short description of how you would like to present it on the day. 
These proposals should not be longer than 150 words. Preference will be 
given to submitters who can attend in person. We also welcome short 
creative works submitted for screening.

*Please email proposals to Kim at (docuverse.symposium /at/ gmail.com) 
<mailto:(docuverse.symposium /at/ gmail.com)> by **November 20th, 2017**.*
