1. MeCCSA 2008 Conference Report
I’ve just got back from the MeCCSA conference and would like to invite anybody who attended to 
post their comments on the Facebook group as soon as possible.  Jill Daniels (UEL) will then edit 
our discussions into a conference report for publication in Journal of Media Practice.  The 
overwhelming feedback in the closing remarks by Ivor Gaber (one of the founding members of 
AMPE) was that practice had had a very strong presence at the conference and that the perceived 
gap between theory and practice was beginning to disappear.  On behalf of the Practice Section I 
would like to thank Justin Lewis and Gill Branston and all the conference organisers and helpers 
for making it such a smooth running, enjoyable and productive event.  I will be commenting 
further on Facebook so see you there.

2. CFP: “Media Practice and its Field: The Relationship with Professional Practice, Teaching and 
Research” The Fourth Journal of Media Practice Symposium – Call for Presentations
Institute of Communication Studies, University of Leeds (20 June 2008)
Supported by the Louis Le Prince Centre, and MeCCSA Practice Section

Media Practice has increased in scope and vitality since the inaugural JMP conference in 2005, and 
we are now recognising this by looking at our context – how we interact with our field.  This is 
about how we teach media practice, how researchers and educators relate to professional and 
conventional practice (and vice versa), and how our research by and through practice relates to 
other research methods and activity in the same field.

Proposals for creative presentations, screenworks or extracts, posters, handouts, performances, 
talks or traditional papers – anything that relates to media practice as an academic subject – are 
welcome.  There will be opportunity for additional screenings or audio presentations as 
appropriate.  As previously, extracts and proceedings will be published and participants invited to 
submit to both the JMP and Screenworks.  The organisers would like to receive proposals of up to 
500 words plus other artefacts or information as relevant, by Monday 31 March 2008.  

Enquiries (including about available space and technical resources) and proposals to: Ian W. 
Macdonald, Louis Le Prince Centre for Cinema, Photography and Television, Institute of 
Communication Studies, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT, t: (+44) 113 343 5816, e:

(email: [log in to unmask]).  If you would like to present please see go to http://

4. CFP: Negotiating the Mediascape: Theory and Practice Interchange in Contemporary Media,

6.	Arts on Film
Westminster University is pleased to announce its Arts on Film Archive offering on-line access to a 
large range of films on art produced in the United Kingdom since the 1950s.  It is a unique record 
of British and international post-war art, as well as of documentary film-making in the UK. If it
