CALL FOR PROPOSALS
Interactive Film and Media Annual Virtual Conference

June 12-14, 2024, via Zoom


Communities | Structures | Entanglements


Proposals Deadline: Monday, December 18th

The VI Interactive Film and Media Conference 2024 is thrilled to announce a Call for Proposals focused on the compelling and intricate themes of "Communities | Structures | Entanglements." These themes present a rich ground for exploration, innovation, and critical examination in the rapidly evolving interactive film and media domain.

Communities, structures, and entanglements are crucial concepts in the ever-evolving field of interactive film and media. Communities navigate complex relationships, power dynamics, and ethical considerations. In the interconnected world of interactive film and media, understanding the evolving roles and nature of communities is crucial for both creators and participants. Structures serve as scaffolding that shapes narratives, fosters creativity, and broadens new possibilities. Studying these frameworks inspires both analysis of current methods and the creative imagining of novel structures that open up new spaces for exploration and consideration. Entanglements demand careful consideration and management to ensure a harmonious and impactful interactive experience. Each element contributes to an overall tapestry of narrative, whose formal features produce interconnections that resonate for audiences. Also, collectively, these aspects are reshaping how we think about design, interaction, and community building in an interconnected digital world.

The 6th Interactive Film and Media Virtual Conference (June 12-14, 2024) 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, media producers, etc.) to submit their proposals. We seek proposals that blend critical analysis with creativity, push the boundaries of conventional thinking, and contribute to the burgeoning discourse on communities, structures and entanglements in interactive film and media. While presenters are encouraged to consider this year’s themes (Communities | Structures | Entanglements), proposals on matters relevant to the IFM community and beyond are welcome.

In honor of distinguished professor and friend Patty Zimmermann, the IFM community will celebrate her contributions to strengthening communities, her careful structuring of entanglements, and her commitment to empowering people to speak. We dedicate sessions of the conference to our esteemed colleague, relentless scholar, dedicated social advocate, and a pioneering force in cultivating cross-platform and interdisciplinary engagement.
