#IFM2025 Resonances Conference

June 10-13, 2025, via Zoom

The 7th Interactive Film and Media Annual Conference invites you to engage with the theme "Resonances," exploring how media fosters deep, meaningful connections in our daily lives. This year’s conference delves into how personal and communal experiences shape our interactions and understanding of the world. We encourage submissions that critically engage with the theme and its subtopics, including:

• Response: How do we form thoughtful responses to crises in an unstable world?

*This is a hybrid interdisciplinary conference funded by the Humanities Research Centre at the University of Warwick, accompanied by potential publication opportunities.*

In A Dying Colonialism (1959), Frantz Fanon, one of the most significant thinkers on decolonisation, writes firmly:

‘There is not occupation of territory, on the one hand, and independence of persons on the other. It is the country as a whole, its history, its daily pulsation that are contested, disfigured, in the hope of a final destruction’ (p. 65).

Title: "Future Memory: Intersections of Memory, Technology, and Narrative in Literature and Film"

Infrastructures, both visible and invisible, are all around us and they permeate our lives in various ways. Larkin defines infrastructures as “built networks that facilitate the flow of goods, people, or ideas and allow for their exchange over space” (327). Though most commonly associated with its physical manifestations, the term infrastructurealso encompasses intangible elements that play a crucial role in society. Thus, infrastructures are not merely "limited to pipes, roads, and wires" but should, instead, be understood as “interdependent networks of materials, people, and nature that enable the functioning of modern life” (Lockrem 529).

Beyond the Capitals of Decadence

Second Annual National Advanced Writing Symposium (NAWS) - Innovative Pedagogies and Student Engagement in Advanced Writing

Friday, January 31, 2025

The pandemic years have shown us that writing instruction needs to become more inclusive, more robust, and more compassionate. However, it has also challenged us to find new and innovative ways to maintain student engagement, foster participation, and address declining student attendance, among other concerns.
