[ecrea] Editor of Journal of Media Practice - Expressions of Interest welcome

> Editor, Journal of Media
> Practice
>  
> Expressions of interest are sought for this unpaid but
> highly responsible post, held since 2006 by Lina Khatib (Royal Holloway
> University of London).  Lina, assisted by a supportive Editorial
> Board, has been a very successful editor, who has relocated to Stanford,
> California, and has left the JMP in a strong position.
>  
> The JMP has achieved a well deserved international reputation as
> the peer-reviewed source of research and teaching reflection about media
> practice.   Published three times per year by Intellect
> (further details available from
> www.intellectbooks.co.uk),
> this is the only print-based peer-reviewed journal to focus on practical
> media teaching and research. The JMP also supports a very
> successful annual symposium on research through media practice.
>  
> The Editorial Board is seeking interest from individuals/teams who will
> be supported by their institution, i.e. from those who are not only able
> to bring appropriate personal skills to the post, but who can also
> provide a home for the editorial operation.  Currently, Royal
> Holloway provides administration, office and contact support.  It is
> hoped that at least this level of support can be made available by
> applicants. The journal currently has a Books/Film Editor, Zahera Harb,
> and a Web Editor, Gail Pearce. 
>  
> The Editorial Board would first like to receive Expressions of Interest
> from suitably experienced and interested applicants, accompanied by a
> Statement of Intent and a short CV. The Statement of Intent should
> outline firstly (and briefly) a vision for the future development of
> JMP, and secondly a realistic, and brief, assessment of how the
> JMP might be supported by both the applicant and the host
> institution.
>  
> Please send expressions of interest and a CV by June 1st 2010
> to the Chair of the Editorial Board, Cahal McLaughlin
> ((c.mclaughlin2 /at/ ulster.ac.uk)) to whom specific questions may also be
> addressed. We hope to interview in early July.
>  
> Thank you for considering this.
