MULTIMEDIA HISTORIES CONFERENCE
University of Exeter, 21-23 July 2003
Organised by AHRB Centre for British Film and Television Studies and
University of Exeter.
http://www.bftv.ac.uk
One of the most dominant critical concerns of recent years has been
the attempt to understand the impact of a multimedia culture. The
scope and limits of a multimedia culture have become associated with
issues of virtual reality; interactivity; media convergence and
hybridity; body/technology couplings, etc. These familiar narratives,
however, have a much more extended history than is often realised.
Multimedia Histories will examine the long genealogy of multimedia
usage and discourse. From the 19th C onwards, the proliferation of
screen technologies and optical recreations has been an important
element of popular culture. Moreover, the exhibition and consumption
of these entertainments was often defined by their interrelationship.
The mid nineteenth-century drawing room, for example, typically
included stereoscopes and praxinoscopes alongside the magic lantern.
The conference is keen to pursue a comparative approach by focusing
on specific historical moments of convergence and hybridity. In so
doing, it aims to locate the aesthetics of the new media in relation
to an intermedial tradition of public and domestic forms of screen
entertainment. The principal question it hopes to address is this -
to what extent do recent multimedia technologies extend established
features of cinema, television, and the panoply 19th C and 20th C
optical recreations?
For information please see the attached leaflet/booking form. Further
details are available at the AHRB Centre's website:

The Mobius Home Video Forum (http://www.mhvf.net), one of the Web's
most open-minded and informative film sites as even Cahiers du Cinema
noted, is in the middle of a now-annual fund drive. First-time
visitors to the site might get the impression that it's mainly for
fans of low-brow cinema but among the chat about Mario Bava and
Indonesian Terminator rip-offs have been informed discussions of
directors as diverse as Hou Hsiao-Hsien, Abbas Kiarostami, Howard
Hawks, Raul Ruiz, Bruce Conner, Ken Loach, Orson Welles, etc. Thanks
to active moderators, the tone is friendly and calm with no flame
wars and though it's definitely not an academic site most Mobius
posters have a playful seriousness that's too often missing in much
current arts discourse.

From: Intellect-Ideas Films [[log in to unmask]]
Hello all !
My name is Gurinder Khera and I am heading a film company named
Intellect-Ideas FIlms(IIF). I am right now a student and am just in
the process of developing my dreams. I have three divisions to IIF
which are as follows : *Intellect-Ideas Hub.
*Intellect-Ideas Forum.
*Intellect-Ideas Production.
All the three sections are still in its developmental stage and I
need interested film students and film scholars to help me develop
all the three divisions. 1)Intellect-Ideas Hub is a website where
people with film ideas can send in their movie synopsis & would have
their synopsis published on the website weekly. 2)Intellect-Ideas
Forum is an online journal of film studies.I propose to provide a
forum for discussion of all aspects of film history, theory and
criticism. It is our belief that an electronic publication such as
Intellect-Ideas Forum can best serve its readers interests by
promoting as wide a range of approaches and critical methodologies as
possible. 3)Intellect-Ideas Production is just like any other film
production division that make movies for a cause. I propose to make
movies with meaning and intelligence.I am working on a theory which
would be introduced as Intelligent Cinema. If there are any film
students or film scholars that would like to come into collaboration
with me and work with me as a team to develop this concept, please
get in touch with me or email me as soon as possible. You could logon
to my website : www.intellect-ideas.com to get an idea. Though the
website is still in its nascent stage. Please feel free to email me
with any suggestions, comments or ideas on
[log in to unmask] I am looking out for intellectual minds
that have a passion for movies and would like to be a part of a
growing team. Thanking You.

'Can Vote,Won't Vote: is the media responsible?' 6th November 2003
Goldsmiths College, London
Call for Papers
The Journalism Research Unit, based at Goldsmiths College's
Department of Media and Communications, is organising a symposium on
November 6th entitled 'Can Vote but Won't Vote: is the media
responsible' The Symposium is intended to bring media practitioners,
politicians and political communicators together with academic
researchers to discuss this important issue.
Proposals for papers are now being invited. The proposals can address
any issue of the subject from the perspective of media and cultural
studies, political science, sociology, anthropology and any related
discipline. The Symposium is likely to focus on areas such as media
coverage of politics, political communication in general (including
marketing and campaigning), trends in media output (including the
impact of changes in ownership and regulation), media and political
culture, political alienation, voting behaviour, campaigning and
marketing etc.
Although the focus of the Symposium will be on the UK we would also
be interested in receiving proposals for papers which broaden the
discussion internationally.
It is intended to publish a book or a monograph as soon after the
event as possible.
Proposals should be sent to Ivor Gaber at [log in to unmask]

Oliver Grau Interview
"The onslaught of the new media also means that we must hurry. For
before we have helped to establish this art in public awareness, it
threatens to be lost because of its short-lived storage media. Thus,
we are not only contributing to research on digital art, we also hope
to pave the way for digital art into museum collections and thus
secure its future."
A new analysis of virtual images and their longevity from the
perspective of art and media history is presented in Grau's new book
"Virtual Art: From Illusion to Immersion." A recommendable interview
by presented by the Switch Journal.

SAGE Publications' _Understanding..._ series aims to publish a range
of books for undergraduate students studying contemporary culture
(fields, issues, politics), and cultural theorists & theories.
The rapid development of information and knowledge in the cultural
sphere, and the complexity of the material with which cultural theory
and sociology students must engage, make it extremely difficult for
students to understand, absorb or apply key concepts in their work.
Nor can they easily make sense of why particular theorists and
theories are so central to this field, largely because much cultural
theory is written in what is, for newcomers, a rather impenetrable
style. Books in this series provide an engaging and accessible
introduction to those theorists, theories and fields which students
are expected to grasp. The books will be written in a lively,
accessible style, use examples taken from everyday life and cultural
texts, and employ a cross-disciplinary approach.
Books in the series include:
Understanding Foucault 1999
Understanding Bourdieu 2002
Understanding Globalization 2003
Interested authors are invited to submit proposals for new books in
this series. The books should be structured around topics, and
explore and explain the key themes, basic ideas and/or representative
work. The 'hit list' of topics/titles includes:
Understanding Baudrillard
Understanding Class
Understanding Derrida
Understanding Film
Understanding Identity
Understanding Marx
Understanding Media
Understanding Modernity/Postmodernity
Understanding Popular Music
Understanding Race and Ethnicity
Understanding Representation
Understanding Sport
Understanding the Frankfurt School
Understanding Visual Culture
Understanding Weber

IALIC
4TH Annual Conference
Lancaster University, UK
The Intercultural Narrative
14th-16th December 2003
CALL FOR PAPERS
We warmly invite you to submit a proposal for the 4th IALIC
conference. The conference, which has as its main themeThe
Intercultural Narrative, proposes to investigate the various forms of
this emerging genre, its theoretical foundations and its
sociopolitical implications. In the context of the conference,
narrative may be interpreted in the widest sense as encompassing art,
film, music, photography, literature and documentary as well as the
various media through which it is expressed. We understand its object
to be that of capturing the state of being 'between cultures' as a
consequence of physical or psychological displacement, a principle
which may be reflected in the content and structure of the narrative
and in the combination of media employed. It raises questions of
identity: how identity is constructed through narrative, whether the
ideal of coherence is attainable... and also the ethical implications
of attempting to 'narrate the other', at the level of the individal
or, between communities, through ethnographic study. It also raises
questions of genre: what generic forms does the intercultural
narrative take and how do its different discourses interact? Finally,
it will consider the processes of articulation between intercultural
narratives and their social contexts. The conference is
interdisciplinary and is intended to appeal to researchers in the
Arts and Humanities as much as to historians, social scientists and
cultural theoreticians. It is being organised jointly by the
International Association for Languages and Intercultural
Communication (IALIC) and the Institute for Advanced Studies (IAS) at
Lancaster University with sponsorship from The British Academy, the
Institut Franais and the Goethe Institut. The conference will
include an independent forum to which contributions are also invited,
on the pedagogical implications of intercultural study within Higher
Education. This will be co-ordinated by the UK Subject Centre for
Language, Linguistics and Area Studies (see LTSN home page).
Keynote Speakers: David Bellos, Princeton University, Carolyn Cooper,
University of the West Indies, Gnther Kress, London Institute of
Education, Crispin Thurlow, Washington State University.
Keynote Interlocutors in a special debate on the roles and
responsibilities of the 'intercultural author': Ismail Kadare (The
File on H., Albanian Spring...) and Herta Mller (Herztier/The Land
of Green Plums...).
FULL INFORMATION ON EVERY ASPECT OF THE CONFERENCE - INCLUDING FORMS
FOR PROPOSALS - IS AVAILABLE ON THE IALIC WEBSITE www.ialic.org

Active Heroines: A Study Day
Liverpool John Moores University
14th February 2004
Ten years ago an examination of active or violent female protagonists
would have had scant material to draw upon. In the last decade there
has been both a proliferation of such figures in film and television
fiction (Xena, Buffy, Sydney Bristow, Clarice Starling) and a
proliferation of academic studies on active women (Tasker, Harte,
Inness). This study day is an opportunity to review the work now
available and to widen the scope of this debate; to look at new
subjects and different media.
-Topics might include:
-Female avatars in computer gaming
-Girl heroes in comics
-The pre-history of the femme fatale
-Women in Hong-Kong action cinema
-Feminisms violent women

Salon Netiquette:
When hitting 'reply' please always delete the text of the message you
are replying to -- namely, do not leave old posts underneath your
reply (but by all means quote lines you particularly want to refer
to).
Please do not use html or styled formatting when sending messages --
some members will not be able to read your post, and non-formatted
texts take up less bandwidth and thus download quicker.
Styled formatting can be replaced by a simple ascii text style guide:
to emphasise words *quote with asterisks*; film and book titles
should be marked with underscores -- Deleuze's _Cinema_, Sokurov's
_Mother and Son_; mark titles of articles and all quotations with
'single quotation marks'; and instead of tabs or indents simply
separate paragraphs with a one line gap.
When sending a message please check that the subject line reflects
the message content, and is not just one left over from a previous
thread or digest message.
