*Photography in Academic Research*

*0**8/09 September 2016*




Call for papers and visual submissions



‘*photography + (con) text*’ is pleased to announce a call for papers and
visual submissions for a conference on ‘Photography in Academic Research’
to be hosted by UCL Museum and Heritage Studies, Institute of Archaeology,
in collaboration with RAI (Royal Anthropological Institute) and Birkbeck,
Department of Politics.



‘photography + (con) text’ was set up with the aim of promoting the
collaboration and exchange between social researchers and practitioners who
use photography in their research and practice. This conference comes
together to provide a space of exchange, stimulating dialogue between
social researchers and practitioners who engage with photography creatively
and critically. This conference will serve as a platform for photography;
encouraging its uses, analyses and practices in social research, expanding
the possibilities of photographic practice beyond its current observational
and illustrative uses within academia.



The character of research and practice with photography has changed
significantly over the past decades, such that inquiries into the nature of
different screen media, their interactivity, in art installations, their
digitisation, the politics of their making, distribution and reception has
emerged alongside more traditional perspectives and topics such as cultural
memory and visual heritage. At the same time, cultural, technological and
political shifts have led us to re-address the use of photography in
academic research, challenging photography as an archaic practice to the
moving image or an art practice outside an ideological or social platform.



We welcome submissions that discuss how through photography social
researchers and practitioners play an important collaborative role in
exploring people’s social life and how photography is being used and
reconfigured to enrich social research practices, dissemination of data and
in enriching academic writing.



We welcome contributions from researchers, practitioners and artists
working in all fields such as education, social research, the arts,
museums, archives and anyone who is engaged with the analysis and the
production of photography.



Panels are not limited to the following themes but can be used to guide
your submissions.



·      The still image in a world in movement

·      Photographs in a world of textual hegemony

·      The use of photographs in a social research environment and academic
writing

·      Photographic ethnographies

·      The politics of visual evidence and the archive

·      Politics and photography

·      The social life of photographs
