SUMMARY:Reading Emotions Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the eleventh Reading Emotions meeting. This year\, we focus on the topic of exposure and avoidance: from the brain to the clinic. \nLearning to avoid potential threats is key to survival\, but it can become maladaptive when the perceived danger is objectively low or even absent. Exposure-based therapies aim to counteract flawed associations between intrinsically safe situations and imagined dangerous outcomes by repeatedly exposing an individual to the objects or situations that elicit fear. Exposure therapy can be effective in alleviating symptoms\, including safety and avoidance behaviours. However\, it often does not lead to full remission\, and relapse after treatment is common. This symposium brings together leading neuroscientists and researchers in psychopathology to discuss exposure and threat avoidance\, from the brain to the clinic. \nConfirmed speakers \n\nMichelle Craske (UCLA)\nDrew Fox (California)\nAngela Roberts (Cambridge)\nKarin Roelofs (Radboud)\nBram Vervliet (KU Leuven)\nPolly Waite (Reading and Oxford)\n\nAttendance is free\, but early registration is recommended. \nFor more information please visit: https://sites.google.com/site/readingemotions/ \nTo book your place please visit: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/reading-emotions-2022-tickets-306322949187

SUMMARY:Future Storytelling
DESCRIPTION:You are warmly invited to attend Future Storytelling\, with talks from three visiting speakers followed by discussion over drinks. This is the next installment of the Creative Entrepreneurship programme\, postponed from last term. \nTim Powell\, UoR Creative Entrepreneur in Residence\, will be joined by Rachel Briscoe (and / or other speakers) from Fast Familiar and another exciting speaker from the creative industries (t.b.c.). They will be discussing how technology\, data and audience expectations are changing the way we tell stories. \nThe event will be hybrid (and hopefully recorded) for those whose working patterns mean they can’t be there but if you can attend in person that would be ideal as the opportunity for conversation is an important part of the event. \nLocation: Bulmershe Theatre\, Minghella Studios\, Whiteknights. \nTime: 4pm – 6pm \n  \n

SUMMARY:Summer Workshop in Videographic Research Methods
DESCRIPTION:As part of our commitment to interdisciplinary research at the University of Reading\, the Heritage & Creativity Research Theme and the Centre for Film Aesthetics and Cultures (CFAC) are pleased to announce a Summer Workshop in Videographic Research Methods. \nContext \nThe digital reworking of sound and image is a key academic approach in film and television studies. This workshop is designed to make these methods available to researchers at Reading\, including those working in other disciplines. While we imagine some participants in the workshop will be conducting research in film or television\, a major ambition of the workshop is to develop the skills of researchers in other discipline areas. We believe there are significant and underexplored opportunities in applying videographic approaches to other arts and humanities subjects. \nThe workshop \nThe workshop will take place in Minghella Studios\, June 20th – 24th. It will involve: \n\ntechnical training in non-linear editing and related technologies\nproducing and sharing feedback on a series of exercises in response to briefs designed to engage with different and videographic approaches\ndiscussion of existing video essays and debates in the wider field of videographic scholarship\nreflection on videographic analysis and archival material\nplanning a longer audiovisual essay\, with opportunities for feedback later in the vacation\nlunch and refreshments.\n\nParticipants will nominate and work with an item of audiovisual material or material object relevant to their research\, as a means of ‘testing out’ how to develop critical ideas through editing. No prior experience or equipment is required (computers with appropriate software will be available at the workshop). \nThe workshop will be led by CFAC Co-Director Adam O’Brien and John Gibbs\, an audiovisual essayist with several years’ experience of teaching videographic criticism. It will also draw on expertise from colleagues in Special Collections and the wider videographic field. \nApplications \nIf you are interested in taking part\, please complete the expression of interest. The form invites you to confirm your availability for the dates and duration of the workshop\, to provide information about your research context\, and to identify an object of study\, indicating what potential there might be for working with it through audiovisual means. Please RSVP by March 25th. \nQuestions \nPlease contact CFAC Co-Director Adam O’Brien with any questions (adam.obrien@reading.ac.uk). \n  \nExplore videographic methods… \nIf you are not yet familiar with videographic work\, these examples may help to illustrate the exciting potential and variety of the approach: \nPasta as prologue: the Spaghetti House siege on film (Charlie Shackleton): Two different dramatisations of the 1975 siege of a Knightsbridge restaurant by Black British radicals remind us that history also needs its agitators. \nThe Elephant Man’s Sound\, Tracked (Liz Greene):A deep archival dive into sound design\, David Lynch and creative-labour politics. \nThe Mighty Maestro on Screen (Evelyn Kreutzer): A study of gesture\, movement and music\, through the figure of the on-screen orchestral conductor. \n‘Say\, have you seen the Carioca?’ (John Gibbs): Moving between film\, popular music\, histories of dance and cinema exhibition practice; looking afresh at relationships between different historical periods and national cinemas. \nMediated Auscultation (Emilija Talijan): Stethoscopes\, bodies\, sounds\, modernism\, still and moving images. \n  \n
