Symposium

Making Music in Film: XI. Symposium for Film Music Research

July 21 - 23, 2016 Zentrum für Populäre Kultur und Musik, Freiburg, GermanyHosted by the Zentrum für Populäre Kultur und Musik (ZPKM) Freiburg
and the Kiel Society for Film Music Research

The XI. Symposium for Film Music Research will take place at the Zentrum für Populäre Kultur und Musik (Centre for Popular Culture and Music), University of Freiburg, and will be dedicated to the filmic representation of musical performance.
Scenes and sequences that show film characters making music have always been essential attractions of cinema. What does it mean when characters break into song or start playing an instrument? Which topoi, conventions or stereotypes can we find across different musical and film genres? Which perspectives on the act of musical performance do films and TV formats offer? Which popular attitudes towards the conditions, rules and peculiarities of musical practice in their historical, economic and political contexts have shaped filmic representations?


Addressing these and other questions, the conference centers on the analysis and interpretation of scenes that show music-making. Such scenes should be examined and discussed within narratological, aesthetic, stylistic, musicological, performance and gender contexts. We welcome discussions of various film genres and TV formats beyond musical films or biopics of musicians.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

a. musical performance in its narrative context
b. diegetic music in silent film
c. rehearsal and performance in stage/backstage and other diegetic settings
d. musical performances in documentaries
e. musical performance and the construction of myths and star images
f. musical performance in TV formats and series
g. performative acts and gender construction
h. virtuosity vs. amateurism
i. musical performance as communication
j. construction of collectives through performance
k. filmic and performative spaces
l. physicality of musical performances
m. spontaneous expression vs. rehearsed performance


For the open part of the conference, we welcome submissions of proposals dealing with any aspect of music in film. We particularly encourage younger scholars and PhD students to present their current research at the conference.

Please submit an abstract (max. 300 words) for a 25 min presentation, as well as a short biography (max. 100 words), to filmmusik@email.uni-kiel.de (contacts: Tarek Krohn and Willem Strank).

Submission deadline: March 31, 2016
Notification of acceptance: April 30, 2016
Conference languages are German and English.
The organizers will not be able to cover any travel costs or other fees.

Summer School

Re-Ordering Diversity: Humanitarian Assistance in the Context of Forced Migration and Displacement

4 - 8 July 2016

Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen (Germany)

Application Deadline: 30 April 2016

Forced migration and displacement are controversially debated issues in current public and political discourse. A rhetoric of threatened order manifests itself alongside attempts to frame the situation as manageable, or even as a chance.

Considering the resulting challenges that politics and practitioners are facing, the need for a more thorough academic engagement becomes apparent. On the one hand, it is paramount to collect a corpus of data which will enable a better theorization of the issues at hand; on the other hand, academics have to take responsibility as the ‘informed consultants’ politicians and practitioners are in need of.



The Summer School will take place from 4th until 8th July 2016 at the University of Tuebingen, as a cooperation between the Collaborative Research Center (CRC) 923 “Threatened Order – Societies under Stress”, the Center for Gender and Diversity Research, and the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity (Göttingen).



We welcome applications from PhD students and early career researchers from social and cultural anthropology, sociology, political science, and related fields of cultural studies and social sciences. The aim of the Summer School is to learn about and discuss relevant topics and academic approaches through a dialogue between different agents from the field: academics, practitioners, and refugees.

*************

Both those people categorized as ‘refugees’ and the societies receiving them are extremely diverse. Due to a lack of academic expertise and theorization, this aspect has so far been only marginally acknowledged in the German-speaking context. In the field, this often results in irritations and complex conflicts between agents, in which a perceived threat against one’s own group dominates the discourse.


In collaboration with researchers from diversity studies, and taking into account the CRC’s model of ‘threatened order’, the summer school will deal with these issues and work towards finding answers to the following questions:


Which forms of diversity are articulated in the context of forced migration and displacement?


What new forms of diversity emerge?



Which mechanisms of order do involved agents and institutions apply (‘re-ordering’)?



The Summer School provides a platform for dialogue between different agents from the field (researchers, practitioners, refugees), who, together, will develop hypotheses and further questions. The goal is to find ways to theorize and frame forced migration and displacement in terms of questions of diversity, humanitarian assistance and ‘threatened order’, and especially to integrate and specify topics from ongoing and emerging research projects.

Aside from a close cooperation between the research institutes, involving practitioners and refugees has a high priority within our concept. The idea is to pursue research not about them, but collectively as a joint effort.

The Uncanny in Language, Literature and Culture

International Conference

30 September 2016 – Warsaw, Poland

organised by Interdisciplinary Research Foundation

The twentieth-century literature and culture tended to explore and to celebrate subjectivity. But this tendency did not mean the turn to the self, but beyond the self, or as Charles Taylor puts it, “to a fragmentation of experience which calls our ordinary notions of identity into question”.

In his attempts to define the uncanny Freud asserted that it is undoubtedly related to what is frightening – to what arouses dread and horror. It may be something domestic but at the same time unfriendly, dangerous, something that sets the sense of insecurity within the four walls of one’s house. “Persons, things, sense-impressions, experiences and situations which are known and long familiar arouse in us the feeling of danger, fear and even horror. Everyday objects may suddenly lose their familiar side, and become messengers”.

The uncanny suggests an unsettling of the feeling of comfort and reassurance in one’s home, but also in oneself. Architecture takes the place of psychology (Kreilkamp). The perturbed relationship between the characters and their familiar world, the troubled sense of home and self-certainty is a result of a traumatic experience of loss.

As Cathy Caruth claims, “to be traumatized is precisely to be possessed by an image or event”. It usually involves time disruption with the past surfacing in the present, especially the past which has not been worked through. The memory traces are revised and interweave with fresh experiences producing the uncanny effect.

In the new literary and artistic discourse authors tend to depict the new human being, “psychologically deep and multi-layered, fragmentary, floating on sensation and consciousness, fed by their random thoughts and their half-conscious dream worlds” (Bradbury). The new style relies on fragments, breaks, ellipses and disrupted linearity of the narration. It serves to convey the idea of the fractured character of modern time and fragmentariness and allusiveness of subconscious thought. As “an externalization of consciousness”, the uncanny becomes a meta-concept for modernity with its disintegration of time, space and self.

This conference seeks to explore the representations of the uncanny in language, literature and culture. Papers are invited on topics related, but not limited, to:
uncanny geographies
uncanny technologies
the uncanny and visual tropes
the uncanny and postcolonialism
the uncanny and gender studies
the uncanny and sexuality

We also welcome poster proposals that address the conference theme.

The conference aims to bring together scholars from different fields. We invite proposals from psychology, sociology, anthropology, literature, linguistics, etc.

The language of the conference is English.

Paper proposals up to 250 words and a brief biographical note should be sent by 15 May 2016 to: uncanny@irf-network.org. Download paper proposal form.

A selection of papers will be published in a collected volume.

Full registration fee – 70 € Student registration fee – 50 €

The Superhero

The Superhero Project: 2nd Global Meeting

Call for Presentations 2016

Mansfield College, Oxford, United Kingdom

“With great power, comes great irresponsibility...” – Deadpool
In the twenty-first century, the Superhero now holds an unparalleled position within pop culture. Having vastly expanded beyond its birth medium of comic books to what is a fierce and pervasive presence in multiple media, this domination is no more apparent than the realms of mainstream cinema, where blockbuster superhero films routinely break box-office records and more than thirty further films are set to be released by 2020.
In 2016, DC Comics trinity of flagship characters – Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman – finally appear on screen together for the first time in Zack Snyder’s “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice”, while the steadfast heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe will fracture in “Captain America: Civil War” and the group villainy of “Suicide Squad” will see anti-heroism placed front and centre. The surprise success of “Deadpool” has ignited a renewed appetite for “R-rated” superhero material and, on TV, the richly-noir “Jessica Jones” merges the superhero with urban sleuth, exploring such dark topics as Rape and PTSD, and “Marvel’s Daredevil” has provided a platform for the discussion of disability issues.
Meanwhile, real individuals are being elevated to the status of superhero – literally and metaphorically. The “Real Life Superhero” phenomenon – in which people dress in superhero costume to enact community service or vigilantism – continues apace, while the military maintains the development of technology that allows soldiers to considerably augment their physical strength. In the halls of comic conventions worldwide, fans demonstrate their devotion to specific iterations of superhero characters via detailed cosplay.
After seventy-eight years of comic book existence, the superhero remains regarded as an inspirational figure, but also a divisive one, perceived in some quarters as a promoter of violence and vigilantism. Superheroes position themselves as purveyors of a specific set of moral values, sometimes above the law, but always striving for the greater good. Superheroes are typically depicted in a constant struggle with notions of personal responsibility, and questions of identity and destiny, in line with Joseph Campbell’s “Monomyth”.
Perceived as a modern form of mythology or folklore, the superhero currently occupies a diverse and expansive space in modern popular culture. Yet, while still largely American in focus, the superhero has become increasingly international, capable of reflecting specific issues and operating as a powerful messenger of them – a power they have possessed since their inception in the spring of 1938. As more and more people wear the symbols of superheroes (via t-shirts etc.) as an expression of values as well as fandom, the superhero is becoming us.
The 2nd Global Conference on Superheroes invites interdisciplinary discussion on superheroes and the notion of the super-heroic. Areas of discussion could include:
Indicative themes for discussion may include but are not limited to:
The postmodern superhero
Secret identities, transformation / becoming
The queering of the superhero genre
The intellectualisation of superhero narratives
Revisionism
Regulation, Moral Relativity and Authority
Superheroes at home
Superhero utopias and dystopias.
Monstrosity
Globalisation and Cultural Appropriation
The superhero’s role in war and conflict
The superhero in childhood play
Cosplay
Gadgetry and cyborg prosthetics
In addition to the presentation of conference papers, the Project Team welcomes the submission of shorts workshops and accounts of professional practice, as well as other contributions, including performances. It particularly welcomes the submission of pre-formed panel proposals.
