Call for Papers 2006 Film and History League Conference “The Documentary Tradition” www.filmandhistory.org AREA: Music and Performance The interaction between film and music provides a rich opportunity from which to examine the political and cultural realities of popular music forms and the interplay between these forms. Considering the conference’s title, “The Documentary Tradition,” research that is able, within a documentary film form, to make sense of musical practice in culture and potentially everyday life will be considered for the “Music and Performance” category. Tour films, concert/theater films, documentary narratives, and fan biopics--to name a few formats--are all potential areas for exploration. The conference will provide a rich context from which to explore these topics in panel form as well as with other opportunities including an appearance by concert filmmakers D.A. Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus as keynote speakers. The Film and History League conference details can be found at www.filmandhistory.org. The meeting will run from 8-12 November, 2006 in the Dolce Conference Center near the DFW airport. A spectrum of other areas is evolving on the web site at www.filmandhistory.org.
