* CARE / COLLABORATION / CRAFT *

The annual *Interactive Film and Media Conference* invites abstracts 
that explore, interrogate, interweave, unravel, and reinvent the dynamic 
relationships between craft, care, and collaboration across new media 
platforms, practices, and theories. This nexus of craft, care, and 
collaboration has emerged as a fertile ground for thinking through the 
crucial yet unresolved work of combatting polarization with multiple 
voices, plural practices, and new ways of working together to invent 
shared languages and ideas. The conference invites participants to think 
about these three axes–craft, care, collaboration–whose definitions and 
relationships are not fixed, but fluid and adaptive.

This conference does not propose closed definitions of the terms craft, 
care, and collaboration.  Nor does it map the ways in which these three 
terms entangle, enmesh, separate, collide. Instead, the conference 
celebrates the open fields, gaps, and fissures between these terms in an 
initial attempt to enhance what is ambiguous, unresolved, and needing 
our attention. The conference invites participants to think through and 
imagine craft, care, and collaboration in new ways that mine these 
cracks and ambiguities.

The 5th Interactive Film and Media Virtual Conference (June 7-9) invites 
academics (faculty, researchers, and Ph.D. students) from all 
disciplines (media, communication, film, digital studies, visual arts, 
etc.) and practitioners (filmmakers, artists, VR and game designers, and 
media producers) to submit their proposals. While presenters are 
encouraged to consider the themes of Care, Collaboration, and Craft, 
proposals on matters relevant to the IFM community and beyond are welcome.
