Hello, I submitted a CFP announcement a few days ago but have not seen it yet - is there a problem with the email or the content? Please let me know, am trying to get the word about about this CFP for the Middle East Caucus of the Society for Cinema and Media Studies:
CFP: Defining Experimental and Art Films in Middle Eastern Cinemas. In the Middle East, many film movements, films, and filmmakers have defined themselves as experimental, marginal, or avant-garde in relationship to other dominant orders of expressions, be it mainstream or commercial. The definition of Middle Eastern experimental cinemas relates to dynamic political, social, and aesthetic attributes that need critical elaboration. What is the relationship between the political and aesthetic changes in defining what is experimental or art cinema? How has experimentation of the past influenced the present? How does the term experimental connect with terms like postcolonial, postmodern, or revolutionary cinema? We invite papers that will investigate the definition of the experimental or art film in specific Middle Eastern Cinemas. The definition of Middle Eastern cinemas for this panel transcends simple location or identity as we are using Middle Eastern in the most inclusive way. We encourage proposals that choose specific movements like the Iranian New Wave, "Küçük Sinemalar!" in Turkey, specific directors and artists, or specific types of experimental film. Proposals are due on August 21. They should be 250-300 words with a bibliography, and a short bio.
