[Commlist] CFP - International Journal on Stereo and Immersive Media - Issue no.5 + 4th International Conference Stereo & Immersive Media 2020 — Photography, Sound and Cinema Research

International Journal on Stereo & Immersive Media (IJSIM)
Call for papers - Issue No.5

The International Journal on Stereo & Immersive Media (IJSIM) is an open 
access and peer-reviewed journal that reflects on our progressively 
immersive media culture. It has a historical and critical perspective 
about immersion by considering that it draws both on state of the art 
technologies and on old and discontinued media that have once stimulated 
and expanded our perception. While these technologies (from stereoviews 
to cinema, virtual reality or video gaming) have deeply strengthened the 
human relationship to virtual worlds, they have also made visual 
documents more engaging, offering them richer and inspiring 
interpretations of reality. This Journal aims at reflecting upon these 
topics and welcomes papers addressing one or more of the following themes:

1- Stereoscopic Photography and its Visual Cultures;
2- Past and Current Immersive Technologies;
3- Scientific and Social History of Early Visual Media;
4- Cultural Heritage and the Digital Age;
5- Media Arts, Virtual Reality and Immersion;
6- 3D Sound, 3D Cinema and 360 degree films;
7- Sonic Art and Video Gaming

This issue will include two invited papers by the renowned photographic 
historians Boris Kossoy (University of São Paulo) and Michael Pritchard 
(Royal Photographic Society).

Full paper submissions for Issue no.5 are due by 2 December 2019.
No fees will be charged for paper publications.
Accepted Languages: English, Portuguese and Spanish

4th International Conference
Stereo & Immersive Media 2020 — Photography, Sound and Cinema Research

Universidade Lusófona, Lisbon, Portugal
Casa Estúdio Carlos Relvas, Golegã, Portugal
18— 20 June 2020


The 4th /International Conference on Stereo & Immersive Media /aims to 
bring together the research fields of photography, sound and cinema, 
considering their historical and current relationships with expanded and 
immersive environments.

Stereoscopic and immersive technologies have been widening the scopes of 
photography, sound and cinema since the 19th century. This conference 
has a historical and critical perspective about immersion by considering 
that it draws both on state of the art technologies and on old and 
discontinued media that have once stimulated and expanded our 
perception. While these technologies (from stereo views to cinema, 
virtual reality or video gaming) have deeply strengthened the human 
relationship to virtual worlds, they have also made visual documents 
more engaging, triggering richer and more inspiring interpretations of 
reality. Noteworthy is also the fact that some of these technologies are 
being used and considered vital to reshape our perception of heritage 
and to allow new readings and museological experiences of historical 
collections.

The conference will take place in Lisbon, at the facilities of 
Universidade Lusófona (Campo Grande) and in Golegã, at the Carlos Relvas 
Studio House, a stunning 19th-century photographic studio, absolutely 
unique in the world and extremely well-preserved.

The organizing committee invites scholars, researchers, artists, 
curators and archivists to submit a proposal for a paper presentation 
addressing one or more of the following themes:


1- Stereoscopic Photography and its Visual Cultures (19th to 21st Century);
2- Photography, Cinema and Sound Media Archaeologies;
3- Scientific and Social History of Early Immersive Media;
4- 3D Cinema, Virtual Reality and Video Gaming;
5- Media Arts (Visual/Sound) and Immersion;
6- Urban Sound Studies;
7- Performance and Visual Media;
8- Cultural Heritage and Digital Age;

Stereoscopic projection will be available at the conference. The 
conference will offer you the opportunity to present your talk in 3-D if 
you feel inclined to. The digital images for these 3D presentations will 
be expected by April 18, 2020.

The conference will also include 3D film screenings. 3D film submissions 
are due by May 15, 2020.

Keynote speakers will be announced soon on the conference website: 
http://stereoimmersivemedia.ulusofona.pt 
<http://stereoimmersivemedia.ulusofona.pt/>


Deadline for abstracts: February 17, 2020.
Abstracts should have between 200-400 words and should be submitted 
along with a short biography in English, Portuguese or Spanish.
