\n*PROJECTION \/ GEOMETRY \/ PERFORMANCE*
\nA Besides the Screen International Conference and Exhibition
\nCoventry University, late July 2016<\/p>\n

From shadow puppetry to videomapping and holography, projection is one of the central activities in moving image practices. Being at the same time a precise geometrical operation and the main underpinning of cinematographic artifice, it has a highly ambiguous existence: Siegfried Zielinski once dubbed projection \u00e2\u20ac\u0153a media strategy located between proof of truth and illusioning;\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Sean Cubitt, in turn, has underscored how it produces a state of simultaneous \u00e2\u20ac\u0153vanishing and becoming.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d While performing the articulation from space to surface and vice-versa, projection enacts the very translation of dimensions that, according to Vil\u00c3\u00a9m Flusser, is responsible for the creation of images. The investigation of projection thus brings forth the performativity of media.<\/p>\n

We are looking for papers and projects that survey this heterogenous character of projection and its relation to a wide range of moving image practices to be presented at the next Besides the Screen International Conference, to be held in late July 2016 at Coventry University, United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

It is possible to participate with papers, workshops, performances, artist presentations and artworks that address topics such as:<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u201c old, new and future projection technologies
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u201c the labor, role and possible agency of the projectionist
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u201c projection theories
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u201c architectures for (and against) projection
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u201c projection as psychological process and\/or mathematical operation
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u201c unconventional projection geometries and sites
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u201c the use of projection in the hard sciences and art installations
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u201c audiovisual performances, live cinema, vjing
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u201c mobile projection, light graffiti, pop-up cinemas
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u201c videomapping, dome projection, planetariums
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u201c holography, pepper’s ghost, shadow puppetry, phantasmagorias<\/p>\n

To submit a proposal, send an abstract (~300 words) and a short biographical note (~150 words) to the email besidesthescreen@gmail.com<\/a>, indicating in the subject SUBMISSION: BESIDES THE SCREEN 2016. The extended deadline is 1 May 2016.<\/p>\n

Besides the Screen is an international research network that aims to reconfigure the field of screen studies by refocusing it on the objects, processes and practices that exist besides the screen. The project is currently supported by the British Arts & Humanities Research Council. More info can be found at http:\/\/besidesthescreen.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
