Call for Proposals

The International Centre 4 Prince Studies welcomes proposals on Prince’s 
vast output related to the moving image, including but not limited to: 
film, music video, concert recordings, television appearances, and 
interviews.  The conference aims to continue the advancement of Prince 
academic scholarship and to advance the study of Prince’s moving image 
presence, an under-explored aspect of his artistic output. A 
peer-reviewed, academic publication of select presentations from the 
conference is an anticipated outcome.

The conference will also include a special session on the 40th 
anniversary of Prince's debut film Purple Rain (1984); therefore, 
proposals related to Purple Rain are welcome. The conference seeks to 
explore all aspects of Prince on screen, and proposals on his other work 
are highly encouraged.

We welcome proposals from scholars and fans in the fields of popular 
music studies, sound studies, race/ethnic studies, gender studies, 
cultural studies, television studies, celebrity studies, film studies, 
visual arts, performance studies, digital and social media, and related 
disciplines.
Submission guidelines:

Proposals are invited for 15-minute papers on, but not limited to, the 
following areas:

Please submit your abstract (maximum 250 words), a proposed title, a 
clear indication of presentation format, institutional affiliation (if
