Hello, (sorry for cross posting if you see this somewhere else)
I am are looking for research students, academics, writers, and practitioners to submit articles and proposals to ViewFinder Magazine.
ViewFinder is a home for all writers but is particularly committed to discovering new voices in academia and publishing work that has impact outside of the academic community.
We are looking for essays and articles on: film, television, radio, education, research projects involving the moving image, plus book and DVD reviews.
The theme for Issue 114 is 'Decolonisation', deadline for proposals, Feb 10th
Questions of decolonising university curriculums, changing the way we teach, disrupting the canon and modernising education are all challenges to current hegemony. But what significance does decolonisation and representation have in educational audiovisual material and the media beyond the classroom. Essays on African, Asian and diaspora film and TV greatly encouraged.
ViewFinder is designed to be accessible across academic disciplines and for public readership as well as academia. It is a chance to synthesise and summarise your project work and to offer think pieces and provocations that enrich the public conversation.
This is a great opportunity for impact and to write around a subject without peer review. It is also a great space for research students and post-grads to get their work out to the public. You can see ViewFinder here: https://learningonscreen.ac.uk/viewfinder/
Each issue of ViewFinder will be centred around a theme or topic of discussion.
Submissions and proposals must aim to fit into these themes, but it is not mandatory.
Articles from 800-2000 words (this is flexible) and written with accessible language and for a wide, crossover audience.
Please email me on [log in to unmask]
Thanks so much
Ki
