Hey, Jon!
Yes, it is precisely the kind of (often overlooked) subject that the
project means to tackle! =)
By the way, the next BTS conference (late November, in Brazil) will focus
on curating and moving image. The call should be out in a couple of weeks.
It would be really great to count with a proposal from you - or any
suggestions really.
Best!
