Event overview
Come and join us for a half-day symposium exploring the relationship between photography and other media, and celebrating the launch of the open access book, Photomediations: A Reader
The concept of photomediations brings together the hybrid ontology of 'light-based media' and the fluid dynamism of 'mediation'. The papers presented in the symposium will challenge the traditional classification of photography as suspended between art and social practice in order to capture the dynamism of the photographic medium today. They will also explore photography's kinship with other media - and with us, humans, as media.
Programme:
* Professor Joanna Zylinska (Goldsmiths): Photography Reloaded, or What Are Photomediations?
* Dr Kamila Kuc (Goldsmiths) and Dr Michael Wamposzyc (University of Portsmouth): Panel on Curating Open Photography
* Dr Rob Coley (University of Lincoln): Ecological Detection
* Professor David Bate (University of Westminster): Colour Space
* Dr Anna Dahlgren (Stockholm University): Magazined Photographs
* Launch of Phtomediations: A Reader and wine reception

NB: Due to Crossrail works there will be not London Overground service to Goldsmiths on 19 February: you'll need to take a replacement bus, or travel one stop on the train from London Bridge to New Cross instead.
The Reader and the symposium are part of the activities of Europeanan Space, a project funded by the European Union's ICT Policy Support Programme under GA No.: 621037
