[Fanny Guillaut]

moves09 | IN MANCHESTER & THE UK | 23-28 APRIL 2009
 
CALL FOR PAPERS
DEADLINE: 13 FEBRUARY 2008, 5 PM
 
 
 
Now in its 5th year, moves is established as the largest exhibition
platform in the UK for experimental short film and new media with a
unique focus on movement, exploring new ways of telling stories through
films, installations and screen-based work. 
moves09 will run a series of 8 forums exploring the narrative
possibilities of movement on screen, to take place at the Cornerhouse,
Manchester's international centre for contemporary visual arts and film.
 
Each forum will start with a paper followed by a discussion, moderated
by an industry professional. Each session will last 1 1/2 hour: 45
minutes for the paper presentation and 45 minutes for the moderated
discussion.
 
moves09 is now inviting submission for papers on three topics:
 
-         narrative possibilities of movement in screen work
-         poetry and movement for the screen
-         how technological development is enabling new directions for
visually rhythmic experimental film (including screendance), such as
machinima work, the development of softwares like eyesweb, arduino.
 
Proposals should be 500 to 1,000 words long; we will publish a selection
of papers from moves09.
