Subject: REMINDER i-Docs 2016 Call for Participation
Only ten days to go until the submission deadline for
i-Docs 2016 Call for Participation
Deadline: October 22nd, 2015
Following the success of the
i-Docs Symposia in 2011, 2012, and 2014 we are now seeking proposals for papers, case studies and projects for i-Docs 2016.
To reflect the rapid expansion and evolution of the field, and growing interest within academia and creative practice, we are expanding the Symposium to take place across three days. Convened by
Judith Aston,
Sandra Gaudenzi and
Mandy Rose, and hosted by UWE Bristol's
Digital Cultures Research Centre, i-Docs 2016 will be held at the
Watershed in Bristol’s Harbourside on Wednesday 2nd - Friday 4th March.
We will be joined by keynote speakers including 2015 Tribeca Storyscapes award-winners
May Abdalla and Amy Rose aka
Anagram, Patricia Zimmermann - co-author of
Thinking Through Digital Media, Chris Sizemore -
Executive Editor BBC, and Vassiliki Khonsari - Executive Producer iNK Stories - 1979 Revolution.
This year’s symposium will focus on three themes that reflect key developments in the field:
We welcome proposals for panels, papers, case studies and alternative forms of debate that cover (but are not limited to) these areas. Interventions around design, impact, evaluation, business models and cross-cultural perspectives are
welcome across all three themes.
We are also eager to hear from practitioners who want to show and discuss new work, and work-in-progress.
MACHINES FOR THINKING
Interactive Documentary for research and pedagogy
THE USES OF IMMERSION
Games, VR, Sensory Storytelling, Personalisation
EVOLVING PRACTICES
Production processes, generative systems, hybridisation and their consequences
