Theorising Practice, Practicing Theory
Tuesday 23rd, April, 2013
Grove House, Froebel Campus, University of Roehampton, London
Hosted by the Centre for Research in Film and Audiovisual Cultures and the Media, Culture & Language Forum at the University of Roehampton.

This event will explore practice-as-research and contemporary conceptions of the relationship between practice and theory in screen media studies through a full day of presentations and screenings. Bringing together scholars and postgraduate students who are conducting, supervising and examining practice-as-research projects, we will examine how the practice-as-research landscape is developing, some of the common issues faced and approaches being taken.
