[ecrea] CFP: Trans-Asia Screen Culture

>Trans-Asian Screen Culture Conference
>Organized by Trans: Asia Screen Culture Institute
>in alliance with Inter-Asia Cultural Studies Society
>Date : October 9-11, 2006
>Conference venue :  Seoul Art Cinema, Seoul, Korea
>
>
>        This conference is an endeavor to create a platform for the 
> discussion of the national cinemas of East Asia as well as the 
> trans-Asian screen cultural flows through East Asia and South East 
> Asia.  The increasingly dynamic and inclusive tendencies in 
> trans-Asian film cultural dissemination and exchange calls for 
> collaborative work across both linguistic/national as well as 
> disciplinary boundaries. The three day event is composed of two 
> parts: one day devoted to the screening of two key films; two days 
> of panel presentations and discussions. The topics open for 
> examination are not limited to the cinema but include many other 
> new "screen" technologies and their attendant communities: 
> Web/Internet arts; television drama; public-space screen 
> presentations; video installations; DMB, etc.  We especially 
> encourage the participation of new scholars interested in this 
> emerging inter-discipline of tran-Asian screen culture. We envision 
> this conference as a means to bring together researchers from 
> within and outside specific Asia-area studies to engage in dynamic 
> conversation.  The conference site is the Seoul Art Cinema, the 
> most revered  and exciting center of  cinephile culture in Seoul.
>
>        Please send proposals for individual papers and/or full 
> panels no later that July 15, 2006 to: Kim Soyoung (Professor of 
> Cinema Studies, Korean National University of the Arts, 
> (soha8 /at/ knua.ac.kr)) and Earl Jackson, Jr, (Visiting Professor of 
> Cinema Studies, Korean National University of the Arts 
> (ejackson /at/ ucsc.edu)). The full details will be available on 
> Inter-Asia Cultural Studies Society website soon (www.inter-asia.net).
>
>        Participants are urged to secure funding from their home 
> institutions, however, we will have limited funding to provide 
> accommodations for selected participants subsidized by Korean 
> National Univ. of Arts School of Film and Multimedia. Everyone is 
> also encouraged to attend the Eleventh  Pusan International Film 
> Festival which begins shortly after the conclusion of the 
> conference.  Invited guests of the conference will be provided
