SUMMARY:Online Panel: Experimental publishing and alternative networked cultures
DESCRIPTION:The Centre for Book Cultures and Publishing is hosting an online panel on ‘Experimental publishing and alternative networked cultures’. The panel will be convened by Ruth Blacksell and Lozana Rossenova with contributions from Karen Di Franco\, Aymeric Mansoux\, Marcell Mars\, Tomislav Medak. \nThe emergence of experimental post-digital publishing over the past decade has opened up new modes and methods of design practice that have allowed for extended relationships between social and media environments. This panel discussion draws on historical as well as contemporary references to examine such approaches through a range of perspectives\, spanning the fields of art\, graphic design\, digital media and software development. The projects and practices discussed in the presentations and subsequent Q&A will consider the shift away from fixed to more fluid forms of publication and acts of publishing that are contingent upon networked\, interactive and hybrid (digital/analog) contexts. Presentations will examine the links between conceptual and performance art practices from the 1960s\, which fed into critical debates in art and design discourse – vis-a-vis the role of the active audience/reader/user – emerging in the 1980s and ‘90s with the broader availability of desktop computing and networked communications. Alongside these developments\, a thriving landscape of grassroots publishing and alternative networked social relations\, with roots in 1960s counterculture\, continues to disrupt and re-examine conventions of authorship\, copyright\, design\, dissemination and reception. Looking at practices\, processes and projects that embrace and reflect back on a variety of strategies including collaboration\, participation and anonymity\, as well as forms that can be permanent or transient\, provisional and iterative\, in nature\, this event proposes the need for new\, cross-disciplinary vocabularies to enter traditional discourses relating to publishing as practice. \nFor more information on the contributors\, please visit: https://research.reading.ac.uk/centre-for-book-cultures-and-publishing/event/online-panel-discussion-experimental-publishing-and-alternative-networked-cultures/ \nThis online event is free and open to all.

SUMMARY:CFAC presents Shulie (Dir. Elisabeth Subrin\, 1997)
DESCRIPTION:Thursday 29th April 2021\, 7-8:30pm (online) \nThe Centre for Film and Aesthetic Cultures (CFAC) at the University of Reading is delighted to host an online screening of Shulie\, a shot-by-shot remake of an obscure 1967 documentary on Shulamith Firestone\, an American art student who was on the cusp of becoming a major figure within the newly resurgent women’s movement with her 1970 work\, The Dialectic of Sex. Director Elisabeth Subrin will join feminist scholars Natalie Thomlinson and Rachel Garfield in conversation after the screening to discuss the legacy of both the film and of Firestone. Called ‘a thing of wonder’ by the New Yorker\, Shulie raises fascinating questions about the sometimes difficult place of the feminist past in the feminist present that are still central today\, and\, in the director’s own words\, seeks to ‘investigate the mythos and residue of the late 60s’. \nFor more information please visit the CFAC website. \nThis event will take place via Zoom.
