Panel CFP: Sound Theory and Cinema
Society for Cinema and Media Studies Conference 2006
Vancouver, March 2-5, 2006

This panel will examine the intersection of sound theory and cinema. Studies
addressing fiction film, non-fiction film, avant-garde works and animation are
all acceptable. Among the broad range of possible topics proposals could examine
the representation or role of technologies of communication within a particular
film or set of films, intervene in on-going debates concerning the relationship
between originals and copies, or challenge the dominance of particular theories
of sound within film studies as a discipline. Research concerning sound in early
cinema and the performance of popular music in film will also be considered.

Please send a 200-300 word proposal along with a brief bio by August 14th, 2005
to Michael Baker at michael.baker2@mail.mcgill.ca.
