Panel CFP: DOCUMENTARY SYNERGY
SCMS 2008, March 6-9, Philadelphia

Contemporary media ecology has generated a wide range of opportunities  
for multi-platform documentary projects and adaptations across  
different media. However, such documentary synergy is not merely a  
recent phenomenon facilitated by digital technologies? remediation of  
the moving image. It has a much longer history that is as old as  
documentary film itself. This panel shall examine the theoretical and  
historical dynamics at work within various forms of documentary  
synergy. In its movement across diverse institutional worlds, media  
platforms and public spheres, documentary synergy opens up new  
perspectives and questions for our understanding of documentary  
production, representation and spectatorship. The panel aims to cover  
the synergistic connections between a range of historical periods,  
cultural contexts and media platforms (including, for instance,  
cinema, television, video art, photography, graphic arts, gallery  
installation, museum exhibition, public and environmental art,  
web-based projects, CD/DVD-ROMs, print publication, sound art, radio  
and performance).

Please send paper proposal (300 word abstract, bio and biblio) or  
inquiries via email to Roger Hallas, [log in to unmask] by August 15.
