Dear SCREEN-L colleagues,
A few weeks ago, the REFRAME digital platform for open access research in media, film and music was launched. You can check it out here, if you haven't already: http://reframe.sussex.ac.uk. So far, we have two publication projects up and running: the Global Queer Cinema project website (http://reframe.sussex.ac.uk/gqc/) and SEQUENCE Serial Studies in Media, Film and Music (http://reframe.sussex.ac.uk/sequence/).
Today, we have just published the first proper entry in the third REFRAME project -- the new REFRAME[D] blog -- which includes a substantial video (and audio) interview with film scholar Rosalind Galt on the subject of her research, and in particular on her 2011 book Pretty: Film and the Decorative Image (Columbia University Press) which was shortlisted for the 2012 Kraszna-Krausz Book Awards and has just won the inaugural British Association of Film, Television and Screen Studies award for 2011 Best Book. You can find the interview here: http://reframe.sussex.ac.uk/blog/2012/10/01/reframed-video-podcast-on-pretty/.
We will be publishing regular video podcasts at REFRAME exploring particular, high quality, pieces of media, film and music studies research, like the one linked to above. So if you have any ideas about what you might like to see profiled in future, or if you have any other ideas or proposals for publications at REFRAME more generally, please don't hesitate to get in touch. We'd be delighted to hear from you.
Thanks.
Best wishes
Catherine
