This one day event is organised in collaboration with the ICC (Institute 
of Cultural Capital) and is supported by the MeCCSA Practice Network.

The focus of this symposium is making stories with rather than just for 
the audience.

In the contemporary cultural landscape we can all self publish our 
novel, release our own films online and share our photography through 
numerous social media sites, gathering our own audience from across the 
globe. These new capabilities are altering the relationship between 
producers and consumers of cultural products and afford possibilities 
for new experiences that are collaborative.

Participatory culture is a new and developing area of media practice, 
which would benefit from exploration and discussion of; technologies 
that afford participation, the ethics of collaboration with users, the 
creative potential of working with an audience and methods to develop 
communities of users.

This discussion will allow a sharing of practice amongst those who 
already produce new media / digital content and work collaboratively 
with others and practitioners who are interested in developing work with 
audiences and users

The symposium will investigate approaches to participatory cultural 
practice and ask - what happens when the audience joins in?

Please register / get in touch through the website or email me if you 
are interested in attending or have any questions.

Best wishes
