*****************************************************

The 31st International Screen Studies Conference, organised by the 
journal Screen, will be programmed by Screen Editors Professor Karen 
Lury and Professor Alastair Phillips.
Confirmed keynote speakers are:

Professor Mary Ann Doane (University of California, Berkeley) 
https://filmmedia.berkeley.edu/people/mary-ann-doane-1/
Dr Racquel J. Gates (Columbia University) https://www.racquelgates.com/
Dr Amy Holdsworth (University of Glasgow) 
https://www.gla.ac.uk/schools/cca/staff/amyholdsworth/
The Editors welcome proposals for papers, audiovisual essays, and 
pre-constituted three-person panels on any subject for this year’s 
conference.
We are particularly keen to encourage contributors to a programming 
strand titled ‘Screen Aesthetics’ with the aim of renewing our 
engagement with traditional and emerging models of interpretation in 
relation to the textual and affective qualities of film, television and 
digital moving image media. We invite papers or audiovisual essays 
addressing any aspect of this topic, whether this be the specific 
properties of the screen (including sound), or contextual approaches 
concerning moving image reception, production, circulation, and history. 
We also welcome innovative approaches that lend themselves to the 
creative potential of the online conference format or that address the 
pedagogical and research challenges of the accelerated digital moment 
coming into view following the pandemic. Submissions for pre-constituted 
panels will be considered although not prioritised.
The Editors are disappointed not to be able to welcome you in person to 
Glasgow this summer, but have decided to hold the conference online for 
one more year only. Feedback from our first digital conference last year 
indicated that delegates appreciated some of the unique aspects afforded 
by the online format, including increased accessibility across 
timezones, and catching up with recordings afterwards. We have also 
taken on board feedback about last year's platform, and panels this year 
will be held on Zoom rather than Zoom Webinar to allow for more 
spontaneous discussion and greater visibility of delegates. Fees are 
again liable to be in the region of £40 (full)/£20 (student).
