Are you a graduate or doctoral student, a post-doc, or a professional working in audio/visual creation on a project that addresses issues in historical film, radio, television, or media history? Are you interested in presenting your project to a select group of experts and peers? If so, this master class from the International Association for Media and History could be just what you’re looking for.

This master class has a broad scope, welcoming any research in the field of media and history. Artistic research projects involving the appropriation and creative re-use of archival footage are especially encouraged.

Participants are expected to give a short introduction to their project and to prepare some central questions for discussion. Senior members of IAMHIST will engage with your project and discuss sources and strategies for developing it further. A maximum of ten proposals will be accepted.

The day is designed to be a small-scale networking event for emerging researchers and media professionals and an opportunity to engage with leaders in the field in a less formal setting than an academic conference. There is no charge for attendance and lunch is included.

To apply for this event, send a 300-word proposal of your project and a one paragraph biography to IAMHIST President Leen Engelen (leen.engelen@luca-arts.be) and to council member Roel Vande Winkel (roel.vandewinkel@luca-arts.be). The deadline is 16 December 2024.

The event is organized by IAMHIST and LUCA School of Arts and takes place in HOEK 38, Leuvenseweg 38, 1000 Brussels, Belgium. The venue is at walking distance from Brussels Central railway station.
