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.
