HANDS ON! Engaging with Film-and Media-(as)-Matters in Research, Archives and Museums.
(Udine, 1 - 4 October 2024)
The ###I edition of the FilmForum International Conference aims to investigate how much materialist approaches inform the way in which we engage with film and media as physical and study-objects within and beyond traditional academic research. Our overall aim is to understand how materiality, as relational quality based on the “interplay between the richness of a physically robust world and human intelligence” (Hayles, 2002:33), challenges research and teaching methods as well as collecting and preservation policies, artistic practices, curatorial or exhibition strategies.
