Expanding Documentary, 7-9 December 2011
Ngā Wai o Horotiu Marae
Auckland University of Technology
Aotearoa New Zealand
Organised by Auckland University of Technology (Schools of Communication Studies and Art & Design, Faculty of Design and Creative Technologies) in association with the University of Auckland (Department of Film, Television and Media Studies, and New Zealand Centre for Latin American Studies, Faculty of Arts).
Expanding Documentary: Sound, Image, Text 2011 is the eighth biennial conference held in Aotearoa New Zealand. Arising out of a ‘small country’ context, the event has been distinguished over the years by its concern to engage artists, makers, academics, writers, industry professionals and community activists interested in questions of documentary representation at the intersection of theory and practice.
Focusing on non-fiction and documentary-related work produced within Aotearoa, Australia and the Asia Pacific region, the conference includes presentations of works-in-progress or recently completed works, as well as academic papers.
In 2011, the overarching, interdisciplinary ethos of Expanding Documentary continues the event’s emphasis on new and revised directions in thinking and practice while keeping in sight significant questions of subjectivity, embodiment, ethics, history, politics, economy and technology in the process of making and interpreting documentary works.
Four key areas of interest guide programming:
- Ways in which culturally distinctive knowledge systems inform the production, representation and interpretation of documentary-related work.
- The mediation of documentary through augmented realities, mobile media, web 2.0 applications, interactive game technology and other digital platforms.
- Thinking practices through production, creativity and pedagogy.
- Political and social documentary screens – large and small.
