Dear Screen-L Participants, I have been enjoying this list serve for a long time as a lurker. Now I want to formally come out with a question. My organization is allowing me, if I choose, to organize a convening concerning emerging trends in storytelling and aesthetics. Often these changes are due to digital technology which has radically changed the process of production, exhibition and distribution. This would be an area of intense focus. Do any of you see a need for such a convening (probably to be held later this year) or are we already awash in convenings that lead to little? Any input would be helpful, whether it be suggestions of possible topics for a convening that you would find useful, or types of participants you would want access to (ex: distributors), etc. Thanks very much.
