Dear colleagues,

 

We are delighted to publish Screenworks Volume 7.3: Radical Filmmaking Special Issue. Featuring seven works of practice-research in film and screen media, the volume is testament to the vibrancy and diversity of critical, screen-based practice-as-research as it exists today. Each of these works is underpinned by their political commitment – be it to issues of migration and national identity, media power, sex and gender, inclusivity, war and peace – and yet each also explicitly engages with questions of film form, representational power, and the politics of aesthetics.

 

The issue is now available online at http://screenworks.org.uk/archive/volume-7-3.

 

Contents:

Paola Bilborough, ‘This is Me: Agot Dell’ (03’12”; experimental documentary)

Kelly Zarins, ‘Second Home: Our Here’

Nick Cope, ‘Revisiting Scratch Video’

Alex Ressel and Kerri Meehan, ‘Chimera’

Kayla Parker, ‘On Location’

David Archibald, ‘Glasgow: RFN 16’

Best wishes,

 

Screenworks editorial team
