The Image Conference, 2013

Dear Image Conference Delegates, Welcome to the Fourth International Conference on the Image. The Image Conference is a means by which we can come together to interrogate the nature and functions of image-making and images themselves. It aims to be a crossdisciplinary forum bringing together researchers, teachers and practitioners from areas of interest including: architecture, art, cognitive science, communications, computer science, cultural studies, design, education, film studies, history, linguistics, management, marketing, media studies, museum studies, philosophy, photography, psychology, religious studies, semiotics, and more. In addition to organizing The Image Conference, Common Ground publishes papers from the conference at http://ontheimage.com/publications/journal/, and we encourage all conference participants to submit a paper based on their conference presentation for peer review and possible publication in the journal. We also publish books at http://ontheimage.com/publications/books in both print and electronic formats. We would like to invite conference participants to develop publishing proposals for original works, or for edited collections of papers drawn from the journal which address an identified theme. Common Ground also organizes conferences and publishes journals in other areas of critical intellectual human concern, including humanities, design, technology, learning, and the image, to name several (http://commongroundpublishing.com). Our aim is to create new forms of knowledge community, where people meet in person and also remain connected virtually, making the most of the potentials for access using digital media. We are committed to creating a more accessible, open and reliable peer review process. Alongside opportunities for wellknown academics, we are creating new publication openings for academics from developing countries, for emerging scholars and for researchers from institutions that are historically teaching-focused. Thank you to all who have put such a phenomenal amount of work into preparing for The Image Conference. A personal thank you goes to our Common Ground colleagues who have put a significant amount of work into this conference: Samantha Imburgia, Raquel Jimenez, Emily Kasak, and Kim Kendall. We wish you the best for this conference and hope it will provide you every opportunity for dialogue with colleagues from around the corner and around the globe. We also hope you will join us at the Fifth International Conference and Exhibition on the Image to be held in Berlin, Germany at Freie Universitt Berlin, 29-30 October 2014. Yours Sincerely, Phillip Kalantzis-Cope Director, Common Ground Publishing

The Image Conference, 2013

COMMON GROUND
Our Mission
Common Ground Publishing aims to enable all people to participate in creating collaborative knowledge and to share that knowledge with the greater world. Through our academic conferences, peer-reviewed journals and books, and innovative software, we build transformative knowledge communities and provide platforms for meaningful interactions across diverse media.

Our Message
Heritage knowledge systems are characterized by vertical separationsof discipline, professional association, institution, and country. Common Ground identifies some of the pivotal ideas and challenges of our time and builds knowledge communities that cut horizontally across legacy knowledge structures. Sustainability, diversity, learning, the future of the humanities, the nature of interdisciplinarity, the place of the arts in society, technology!s connections with knowledge, the changing role of the universitythese are deeply important questions of our time which require interdisciplinary thinking, global conversations, and cross-institutional intellectual collaborations. Common Ground is a meeting place for these conversations, shared spaces in which differences can meet and safely connectdifferences of perspective, experience, knowledge base, methodology, geographical or cultural origins, and institutional affiliation. We strive to create the places of intellectual interaction and imagination that our future deserves.

Our Media
Common Ground creates and supports knowledge communities through a number of mechanisms and media. Annual conferences are held around the world to connect the global (the international delegates) with the local (academics, practitioners, and community leaders from the host community). Conference sessions include as many ways of speaking as possible to encourage each and every participant to engage, interact, and contribute. The journals and book series offer fully-refereed academic outlets for formalized knowledge, developed through innovative approaches to the submission, peer review, and production processes. The knowledge community also maintains an online presencethrough presentations on our YouTube channel, monthly email newsletters, as well as Facebook and Twitter feeds. And Common Ground!s own software, Scholar, provides path-breaking platforms for online discussions and networking, as well as for creating, reviewing, and disseminating text and multi-media works.

The Image Conference, 2013

THE IMAGE KNOWLEDGE COMMUNITY


Community Focus
The concerns of this conference aim to open broad-ranging and interdisciplinary conversations on the nature and functions of image-making and image. These knowledge forums bring together researchers, teachers and practitioners to discuss questions of shared interest and common concern. The resulting conversations weave between the empirical and the theoretical, research and its application, the ideal and the pragmatic.

!
The Image knowledge community is dedicated to the concept of independent, peer-led groups of scholars, researchers, and practitioners working together to build bodies of academic knowledge related to topics of critical importance to society at large. Focusing on the intersection of academia and social impact, this knowledge community brings an interdisciplinary, international perspective to discussions of new developments in the field, including research, practice, policy, and teaching. Specific themes of interest to this community include: Theme 1: The Form of the Image Theme 2: Image Work Theme 3: The Image in Society 2013 Featured Theme: The Everday Image: Reproduction and Participation

Scope and Concerns The Defining Image


The foundations of our species being, and the narratives of species history are marked by imagerythe parietal, megalithic art and body art of first peoples, the iconography and symbology of religions, the graphic-representational roots of writing. We are, uniquely in natural history, the symbolic species. And within our peculiar species history, the development of capacities to create images parallel speaking and precede writing. Since the beginnings of modernity, however, we have increasingly focused our attention on language as our species-defining characteristic. After half a millennium where the power and prestige of language has held sway, we may be in the cusp of a return of the visual, or at least a multimodality in which image and text are deeply inveigled in each other!s meanings. This can in part be attributed to the affordances of the new communications environment. As early as the mid twentieth century, photolithography put image and text conveniently back onto the same page. Then, since the mid 1970s, digitized communications have brought image, text and sound together into the same manufacturing processes and transmission media.

The Image of Transformation: Properties of Consequence


The image has several key properties, of interest to the participants in this knowledge community. The first is its empirical connection with the worldtelling something of the world, reflecting the world. It re-presents the world. How does it do this? What are its techniques? What are its mediations? What kinds of "truth! can we have in images? A second property of consequence the image has a normative loading. No image can ever solely be a reflection on the world. It is also a perspective on the world, an orientation to the world. This is because it is the incidental outcome of an act of design. It is the product of an act of human agency. An interested image-maker takes available resources for meaning (visual grammars, fabrication techniques and focal points of attention), undertakes an act of designing (the process of image-making), and in so doing re-images the world in a way that it has never quite been seen before. The human agent is central. To the extent that no two conjunctions of human life experience are ever precisely the same, interests and perspectives in imaging are infinitely varied. In fact, across the dimensions of material conditions (social class, locale, family); corporeal attributes (age, race, sex, sexual orientation, and physical and mental abilities); and symbolic differences (culture, language, gender, affinity and persona) variations in perspective are frequently paramount, the focal purpose or implicit agenda of the imaging agent.

The Image Conference, 2013

For viewers, too, every image is seen through available cultural and technical resources for viewing, seen in a way particular to their interest and perspective. The act of viewing transforms both the image and its world. From a normative perspective then, how do interest, intention, motivation, perspective, subjectivity and identity intertwine themselves in the business of image-making? And what is the role of the viewer in reframing and revisualizing the image? And a third property of consequence the image is transformational. Its potentials are utopian. We see (the empirical). We visualize (the normative). We imagine (the utopian). There is a more-than-fortuitous etymological connection between "image! and "imagination!. Images can be willed. Images speak not just of the world, but to the world. They can speak to hopes and aspirations. The world reseen is the world transformed. What!s in the imagination for now, can become an agenda for practice and politics tomorrow. Imagination is the representation of possibility.

About Our Publishing Approach


For three decades, Common Ground Publishing has been committed to creating meeting places for people and ideas. With 24 knowledge communities, Common Ground!s vision is to provide platforms that bring together individuals of varied geographical, institutional, and cultural origins in spaces where renowned academic minds and public thought leaders can connect across fields of study. Each knowledge community organizes an annual academic conference and is associated with a peer-reviewed journal (or journal collection), a book imprint, and a social media space centered around Common Ground!s pathbreaking "social knowledge! space, Scholar. Through its publishing practices, Common Ground aims to foster the highest standards in intellectual excellence. We are highly critical of the serious deficiencies in today!s academic journal system, including the legacy structures and exclusive networks that restrict the visibility of emerging scholars and researchers in developing countries, as well as the unsustainable costs and inefficiencies associated with traditional commercial publishing. In order to combat these shortcomings, Common Ground has developed an innovative publishing model. Each of Common Ground!s knowledge communities organizes an annual academic conference. The registration fee that conference participants pay in order to attend or present at these conferences enables them, as members of each knowledge community, to submit an article to the associated journal at no additional cost. Thus authors can present at a scholarly conference in their field, incorporate the constructive criticism they receive in response to their presentation, and then submit a finalized article for peer review without having to pay an additional author fee. Scholars who cannot attend the conference in-person may still participate virtually and submit to the journal by obtaining a community membership, which also allows them to upload a video presentation to the community!s YouTube channel. By using a portion of the conference registration and membership fees to underwrite the costs associated with producing and marketing the journals, Common Ground is able to keep subscription prices low, thus guaranteeing greater access to our content. All conference participants and community members are also granted a one-year complimentary electronic subscription to the journal associated with their knowledge community. This subscription provides access to both the current and past volumes of the journal. Moreover, each article that we publish is available for a $5 download fee to non-subscribers, and authors have the choice of publishing their paper open access to reach the widest possible audience and ensure the broadest access possible. Common Ground!s rigorous peer review process also seeks to address some of the biases inherent in traditional academic publishing models. Our pool of reviewers draws on authors who have recently submitted to the journal, as well as volunteer reviewers whose CVs and academic experience have been evaluated by Common Ground!s editorial team. Reviewers are assigned to articles based on their academic interests and expertise. By enlisting volunteers and other prospective authors as peer reviewers, Common Ground avoids the drawbacks of relying on a single editor!s professional network, which can often create a small group of gatekeepers who get to decide who and what gets published. Instead, Common Ground harnesses the enthusiasm of its conference delegates and prospective journal authors to assess submissions using a criterion-referenced evaluation system that is at once more democratic and more intellectually rigorous than other models. Common Ground also recognizes the important work of peer reviewers by acknowledging them as Associate Editors of the volumes to which they contribute. Through the creation of innovative software, Common Ground has also begun to tackle what it sees as changing technological, economic, distributional, geographic, interdisciplinary and social relations to knowledge. For more information about this change and what it means for academic publishing, refer to The Future of the Academic Journal, edited by Bill Cope and Angus Phillips (Elsevier 2009). The second edition of this work is forthcoming. For over ten years, Common Ground has been building web-based publishing and social knowledge software where people can work closely to collaborate, create knowledge, and learn. The third and most recent iteration of this project is the innovative social knowledge environment, Scholar. One of the applications in this software suite is Community, which serves as a place where academics can network and showcase their research through a personally curated bookstore of published work. We hope that you will join us in creating dialogues between different perspectives, experiences, knowledge bases, and methodologies through interactions at the conference, conversations online, and as fully realized, peer-reviewed journal articles and books.

"Travail de panneau!: The Effects of Early Film on Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec!s "Au cirque! Series

Abstract
I propose that Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec drew upon early film techniques to simulate movement in his work, particularly his Au cirque drawings, 1899. Moving picture devices and popular interest in them had been prevalent since the 1830s. As the century progressed, artists and scientists developed cameras capable of capturing sequences of movement in photographs and, finally, film. The impact of these technological advances on the avant-garde during the last quarter of the nineteenth century remains an open question. This question seems especially pressing when one considers that artists patronized and depicted the same establishments that screened films: dancehalls, cafs, and circuses. In this paper, I explore the connection between art and film through a discussion of how the depiction of movement developed in Lautrec!s work throughout his career, culminating in the circus series. These drawings demonstrate an awareness of and involvement with the visual tools of nascent cinema. His competition with film corresponded to the previous generation!s competition with photography, and his engagement with film opens onto a modernism focused on movement and technology.!

JOURNAL SUBSCRIPTIONS, OPEN ACCESS, ADDITIONAL SERVICES


Institutional Subscriptions
Common Ground offers print and electronic subscriptions to all of its journals. Subscriptions are available to individual journals, journal collections, and to custom suites based on a given institution!s unique content needs. Subscription prices are based on a tiered scale that corresponds to the full-time enrollment (FTE) of the subscribing institution. You may use the Library Recommendation form (available here: http://ontheimage.com/publications/journal/about-thejournal#3-tab) to recommend that your institution subscribe to The International Journal of the Image.

Personal Subscriptions
As part of their conference registration, all conference participants (both virtual and in-person) have a one-year online subscription to The International Journal of the Image. This complimentary personal subscription grants access to both the current volume of the journal as well as the entire backlist. The period of complimentary access begins at the time of registration and ends one year after the close of the conference. After that time, delegates may purchase a personal subscription. To view articles, go to the bookstore: http://ijx.cgpublisher.com/]. Select the Login option and provide a CGPublisher username and password. Then, select an article and download the PDF. For lost or forgotten login details, select forgot your login to request a new password.

For more information, please visit:


http://ontheimage.com/publications/journal/subscriptions-and-orders or contact us at journals@commongroundpublishing.com.

Hybrid Open Access


The International Journal of the Image is a Hybrid Open Access. Hybrid Open Access is an option increasingly offered by both university presses and well-known commercial publishers. Hybrid Open Access means that some articles are available only to subscribers, while others are made available at no charge to anyone searching the web. Authors pay an additional fee for the open access option. They may do this because open access is a requirement of their research funding agency. Or they may do it so that non-subscribers can access their article for free. Common Ground!s open access charge is $250 per article, a very reasonable price compared to our hybrid open access competitors and purely open access journals that are resourced with an author publication fee. Electronic papers are normally only available through individual or institutional subscriptions or for purchase at $5 per article. However, if you choose to make your article Open Access, this means that anyone on the web may download it for free. There are still considerable benefits for paying subscribers, because they can access all articles in the journal, from both current and past volumes, without any restrictions. But making your paper available at no charge increases its visibility, accessibility, potential readership, and citation counts. Open access articles also generate higher citation counts. For more information or to make your article Open Access, please contact us at support@commongroundpublishing.com.

Institutional Open Access


Common Ground is proud to announce an exciting new model of scholarly publishing called Institutional Open Access. Institutional Open Access allows faculty and graduate students to submit articles to Common Ground journals for unrestricted open access publication. These articles will be freely and publicly available to the whole world through our hybrid open access infrastructure. With Institutional Open Access, instead of the author paying a per-article open access fee, institutions pay a set annual fee that entitles their students and faculty to publish a given number of open access articles each year.

15

The Image Conference, 2013

The rights to the articles remain with the subscribing institution. Both the author and the institution can also share the final typeset version of the article in any place they wish, including institutional repositories, personal websites, and privately or publicly accessible course materials. We support the highest Sherpa/Romeo access levelGreen. For more information on Institutional Open access or to put us in touch with your department head or funding body, please contact us at support@commongroundpublishing.com.

The Picture in Design: What Graphic Designers, Art Directors, and Illustrators Should Know about Communicating with Pictures Stuart Medley Pictures are as vital to graphic design as type, yet graphic design theories barely give them a look. The seemingly unconscious nature of the act of seeing has meant that vision and pictures have been taken for granted. Finally, here is a way for graphic designers to understand pictures. This book explains the paradox that we are able to communicate more accurately through less accurately rendered images.

Dancing Images Anna Mouat Dancing Images investigates the theoretical issues and practical concerns regarding the use of historic works of art as illustration in dance history. The first section draws content from the diverse fields of visual communication, visual culture, history and theory of illustration, dance iconography, emotional intelligence, visual intelligence, perception theory, visual learning, and visual instruction. The second section provides a collection of 171 images that illustrate the history of Western theatrical and social dance forms, 1581 to 1900, providing art-historical attribution and relevant dance historical information for each image in the collection.

The Search for New Media: Late 20 Century Art and Technology in Japan Jean Ippolito There has been burgeoning interest in documenting the history of digital media within the international art and technology movement so prevalent today. What once was referred to as computer art has earned the new title digital media in the art world. In the field of art history it dissolves into the larger art category called New Media which includes performance, installation, environmental art, and other venues that do not necessarily include technology. This book makes parallels between the process of production in traditional media and the reiterative algorithm in digital media within Japan!s avant-garde of the 1970s.

Conference Principles and Features


The structure of the conference is based on four core principles that pervade all aspects of the knowledge community:

International
This conference travels around the world to provide opportunities for delegates to see and experience different countries and locations. But more importantly, The Image Conference offers a tangible and meaningful opportunity to engage with scholars from a diversity of cultures and perspectives. This year, delegates from over 22 countries are in attendance, offering a unique and unparalleled opportunity to engage directly with colleagues from all corners of the globe.

Interdisciplinary
Unlike association conferences attended by delegates with similar backgrounds and specialties, this conference brings together researchers, practitioners, and scholars from a wide range of disciplines who have a shared interest in the themes and concerns of this community. As a result, topics are broached from a variety of perspectives, interdisciplinary methods are applauded, and mutual respect and collaboration are encouraged.

Inclusive
Anyone whose scholarly work is sound and relevant is welcome to participate in this community and conference, regardless of discipline, culture, institution, or career path. Whether an emeritus professor, graduate student, researcher, teacher, policymaker, practitioner, or administrator, your work and your voice can contribute to the collective body of knowledge that is created and shared by this community.

Interactive
To take full advantage of the rich diversity of cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives represented at the conference, there must be ample opportunities to speak, listen, engage, and interact. A variety of session formats, from more to less structured, are offered throughout the conference to provide these opportunities.

Session Descriptions Plenary Sessions


Plenary speakers, chosen from among the world!s leading thinkers, offer formal presentations on topics of broad interest to the community and conference delegation. One or more speakers are scheduled into a plenary session, most often the first session of the day. As a general rule, there are no questions or discussion during these sessions. Instead, plenary speakers answer questions and participate in informal, extended discussions during their Garden Sessions.

Garden Sessions
Garden Sessions are informal, unstructured sessions that allow delegates a chance to meet plenary speakers and talk with them at length about the issues arising from their presentation. When the venue and weather allow, we try to arrange for a circle of chairs to be placed outdoors.

Talking Circles
Held on the first day of the conference, Talking Circles offer an early opportunity to meet other delegates with similar interests and concerns. Delegates self-select into groups based on broad thematic areas and then engage in extended discussion about the issues and concerns they feel are of utmost importance to that segment of the community. Questions like Who are we?, What is our common ground?, What are the current challenges facing society in this area?, What challenges do we face in constructing knowledge and effecting meaningful change in this area? may guide the conversation. When possible, a second Talking Circle is held on the final day of the conference, for the original group to reconvene and discuss changes in their perspectives and understandings as a result of the conference experience. Reports from the Talking Circles provide a framework for the delegates! final discussions during the Closing Session.

Paper Presentations in Thematic Sessions


Paper presentations are grouped by general themes or topics into sessions comprised of three or four presentations followed by group discussion. Each presenter in the session makes a formal twenty-minute presentation of their work; Q&A and group discussion follow after all have presented. Session Chairs introduce the speakers, keep time on the presentations, and facilitate the discussion. Each presenter's formal, written paper will be available to participants if accepted to the journal.

Workshop/Interactive Session
Workshop sessions involve extensive interaction between presenters and participants around an idea or handson experience of a practice. These sessions may also take the form of a crafted panel, staged conversation, dialogue or debate all involving substantial interaction with the audience. A single article (jointly authored, if appropriate) may be submitted to the journal based on a workshop session.

Virtual Presentations
If unable to attend the conference in person, an author may choose to submit a virtual presentation. Opportunities and formats vary but may be a YouTube presentation or an online discussion with interested delegates at the conference. Abstracts of these presentations are included in the online session descriptions, and an article may be submitted to the journal for peer review and possible publication, according to the same standards and criteria as all other journal submissions.

PLENARY SPEAKERS
Natasha Egan is Associate Director and Curator at the Museum of Contemporary Photography at Columbia College Chicago. Egan has organized numerous international and national exhibitions such as Alienation and Assimilation: Contemporary Images and Installations from the Republic of Korea; Andrea Robbins and Max Becher: The Transportation of Place; Consuming Nature: Naoya Hatakeyama, Dan Holdsworth, Mark Ruwedel and Toshio Shibata; Manufactured Self, photographs about how we identify ourselves through what we consume with international artists from Africa, Asia, Europe and the United States; Made in China, visually focusing on the global impact of manufacturing in China through photography, video and installation; Loaded Landscapes looking at historical and contemporary sites of trauma and conflict; The Edge of Intent examining the utopian aspirations of urban planners and how their visions adapt to changing environments; Reversed Images: Representations of Shanghai and Its Contemporary Material Culture; and The Road to Nowhere? for Fotofest 2010 Contemporary US Photograph with eighteen US artists. Egan has contributed essays to such publications as Shimon Attie: The History of Another (Twin Palms Press, 2004); Photography Plugged and Unplugged (Contemporary Magazine, 2004); Brain Ulrich: Copia (Aperture, 2006); Beate Gtschow LS / S (Aperture, 2007); Michael Wolf: The Transparent City (Aperture, 2008); Placing Memory: A Photographic Exploration of Japanese American Internment (University of Oklahoma Press, 2008); and Stacia Yeapanis (Aperture 2009). In addition, she teaches in the photography and humanities departments at Columbia College Chicago and juries local and national exhibitions. She holds an MA in museum studies, an MFA in fine art photography, and a BA in Asian studies. Erkki Huhtamo holds a PhD in Cultural History. He is a media archaeologist, author, and exhibition curator. At DMA his areas are the history and theory of media culture and media arts. He is known internationally as a pioneer of an emerging approach called media archaeology. It excavates forgotten, neglected and suppressed media-cultural phenomena, helping us to penetrate beyond canonized "grand narratives" of media culture. Professor Huhtamo pays particular attention to the "life" of topoi, or clichd elements that emerge over and over again in media history and provide "molds" for experiences. What may seem new things often prove to be just newly packaged ideas repeated during hundreds and even thousands of years. Professor Huhtamo has applied this approach to phenomena like "peep media" (a notion he has coined), the screen, panoramas and dioramas, video games, and mobile media. He has also written about the work of many media artists, including Paul deMarinis, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, Golan Levin, and Bernie Lubell. Professor Huhtamo's most recent books are Media Archaeology. Approaches, Applications, and Implications (ed. with Dr. Jussi Parikka, University of California Press, 2011) and the large monograph Illusions in Motion. Media Archaeology of the Moving Panorama and Related Spectacles (The MIT Press, 2013). He is currently working on a book on interactive media (The MIT Press, under contract). #Professor Huhtamo has curated numerous exhibitions and events, including the major international exhibition Alien Intelligence (KIASMA Museum of Contemporary Art, Helsinki, 2000). He has served in many art exhibition and festival juries, including Siggraph, Ars Electronica, and the Interactive Media Festival. He has lectured widely in Europe, the United States, Japan, and elsewhere, and written and directed television series about media culture, including Archaeology of the Moving Image (YLE, The Finnish Broadcasting Corporation, 1995-96). Professor Huhtamo has also adapted his ideas to stage works. In 2005-06 he performed a multi-media performance titled Musings on Hands with acclaimed media artists Golan Levin and Zachary Lieberman (Tmema) at Waseda University's Ono Memorial Hall, Tokyo, and at the Ars Electronica 2006 festival in Linz, Austria. More recently Professor Huhtamo introduced Mareorama Resurrected, a stage work that features a reconstruction of a nineteenth-century moving panorama and live piano music (performed so far in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Pittsburgh), and From Dole to the Pole, or Professor Huhtamo's Daring Adventures (Los Angeles, 2012). The latter performance features authentic nineteenth-century magic lanterns and hand-painted lantern slides, live music, and 'follies' sound effects. Professor Huhtamo owns an extensive collection of antique optical viewing devices and documents, such as magic lanterns, peep show boxes, camera obscuras, praxinoscopes, kinoras, etc., which he often demonstrates to his students.

EXHIBITING ARTISTS PERSONAL STATEMENTS AND BIOGRAPHIES


Natasha Carrington Natasha Carrington!s work is a multidisciplinary ranging from drawing, photography and video installation. Her practice centres on relationships of power and how the self is both a reflection of, and a reaction against its environment. Alongside regular exhibitions in galleries; public spaces, film and video festivals such as the Melbourne Underground Film Festival and the international video festival Loop in Barcelona Natasha has presented and published papers in international conferences including the "Activating Peace and Human Rights Conference! in Australia and the "London Film & Media Conference!. In 2012 Natasha Completed her PhD titled "Traversing Correctional Space: The tensions between Justice, Ethics and Aesthetics! at Monash University in Australia. For this work she interviewed twelve men inside Victoria!s maximum security Barwon Prison in an effort to reveal their personal stories and insights into the correctional system in Australia. At "The Image! Conference she will present her paper "Picturing the Offender: The Image as a Construction of Power, Popular Culture and Difference! that examines representations of perpetrators of crime and accompanies her film "Retribution! that is included in The Image Conference Exhibition. Patrick Ceyssens Patrick Ceyssens is a painter, film/video maker, and working across a range of media and their specific languages. There is one constant: his research in the deeper picture elements and their indirect effects. The search for the image construction and the intermediate region in the image layers. He has already made several multimedia-installations at home and abroad. His artistic work is presented by Galerie DS ( www.galerieds.eu ), Galerie Light Cube ( www.light-cube.be ), and Galerie Judy Straten ( www.galeriejudystraten.com). Patrick is also docent image analysis at several universities & university-colleges: Erasmus University College Brussels, PHL College in Hasselt, University Hasselt, Belgium. Currently, he is working on a PhD on this subject at UHasselt, Belgium. He is the creator of the website: http://www.analyzing-images.com which is a virtual taxonomy of image typologies. Mariam Eqbal, MFA 2013, Virginia Commonwealth University I was born in Lahore Pakistan, I live in Richmond, Virginia, and I like watching the waters of the James River. I wonder about approximation. How can a circle ever be measured if pi, the tool for measuring it, is itself infinite? I think about things breaking into smaller things like matter decaying into molecules and particles. I think about numbers and count and wonder about time as a collection of loops, as small repetitive oscillation within one big development, like waves in an ocean. I think about totality, about the beginning and ends of things. My work explores singularity recurring in the presence of time, as an entity in a constant state of flux, shifting and changing. It investigates the complexities of individual forms and systems that occur in nature, and the functions and processes that are fundamental to the design of the form or system in question. Over the course of my research I have come to realize and appreciate my connection with nature at the fundamental level, as a product of natural forces. Along with all things in nature, I am a construct of time, repeating, collecting, and growing in small acts. I seem to be a verb, an evolutionary process, an integral function of the universe. --- R. Buckminster Fuller Alison Goodyear I am a visual artist and my practice involves working predominantly with drawing and painting, informed by a history and theory of painting and landscape. Through various processes and levels of abstraction my work articulates concerns drawn from these sources, exploring organic spaces and their liminal boundaries by creating, playing and distorting what seems as familiar space. I am currently in my second year as a practice-based PhD candidate at Chelsea College of Art. In my research practice I am examining the experience of aesthetic 'absorption' taken from Diderot and Fried and its relationship to a painting practice.

Working at the crossroads of rhetoric and visual culture, Joshua!s award-winning research on both queer and environmental issues is published in the Southern Communication Journal, the Journal of Leisure Research, Speaker & Gavel, Just Leisure: Things We Believe In, and Public Speaking: The Virtual Text. Amber Rae Bowyer is an Annenberg Fellow at the University of Southern California, pursuing a PhD from the Bryan Singer Division of Critical Studies in the School of Cinematic Arts. She holds an MA from the same program, and a BA with honors in Critical Studies in Film from the University of California, Santa Cruz. Within the discipline of Film Studies, Amber!s scholarly interests center on knowledge production and film theory, with attention to an array of film practices ranging from Science Fiction, Educational and Documentary filmmaking, to Animation and Comics. Amber has also earned the USC Visual Studies Certification, and is enthusiastic about the potentials of Visual Studies as an interdisciplinary approach to enrich and more broadly apply existing theories of cinema. Amber!s specialization in moving image appropriation unites her radical cultural politics with her interest in knowledge production, her facility for film theory, and her taste for creative experimentation. Her proposed dissertation topic deals with the inherent politics of the appropriated moving image, across the traditions variously considered found footage, collage film, and compilation documentary. This set of case studies addresses continuities and discontinuities in the politics of reuse, remix, and redress across film history, as well as the ways cinematic appropriation has influenced visual and digital culture at large. Charli Brissey is a choreographer and video artist currently pursuing her MFA in Kinetic Imaging at Virginia Commonwealth University. Integrating dance and digital training with her interests in queer theory, Brissey!s research examines social understandings and expectations of the body through the lenses of feminist critique and animalism. Her work has been presented and produced at a variety of venues, including the Dance on Camera Festival at Lincoln Center, the Center for Performance Research, Dance New Amsterdam, the CURRENT SESSIONS at Wild Project Theater, Body Cinema/International Video Dance Festival of Burgundy, and The Eye Institute. Brissey was recently awarded a Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Graduate Fellowship for her work in film and video. Anna Clareborn is a graduate student at the Art History department at Uppsala University in Sweden, where she also earned her B.A. in Art History and her B.A. in Classical Archaeology and Ancient History.

She received a Bachelor of Education from the University of Southern Queensland and a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) from Curtin University. Jamie is an experienced high school teacher; however her career goals are now firmly focused on arts research and tertiary teaching. Jamie!s research interests include collaborative creativity, identity formation in performances of desire and fantasy, shifting notions of queerness, and how the act of seeing and being seeing might be challenged in age of web 2.0. Jamie!s current research project towards PhD is an autoethnography which investigates what is a stake when one!s private, subjective fantasies become tangled up with notions of seeing and being seen in performance, not least within the age of social media and web 2.0. The autoethnography specifically focuses on Jamie!s interest in and practice of faux queen drag in online and live settings. As a result, much of the focus of her research surrounds notions of queerness in the faux queen community and the risks and rewards of presenting performances and images online. In 2012 Jamie was awarded an Australian Postgraduate Award and Curtin Research Scholarship. In 2014, Jamie has been invited to the University of Maryland Women!s Studies Department to complete her final year of PhD study as a J1 Visiting Scholar.

A Digital Learning Platform Use Scholar to Support Your Teaching


Scholar is a social knowledge platform that transforms the patterns of interaction in learning by putting students first, positioning them as knowledge producers instead of passive knowledge consumers. Scholar provides scaffolding to encourage making and sharing knowledge drawing from multiple sources rather than memorizing knowledge that has been presented to them. Scholar also answers one of the most fundamental questions students and instructors have of their performance, "How am I doing?" Typical modes of assessment often answer this question either too late to matter or in a way that is not clear or comprehensive enough to meaningfully contribute to better performance. A collaborative research and development project between Common Ground and the College of Education at the University of Illinois, Scholar contains a knowledge community space, a multimedia web writing space, a formative assessment environment that facilitates peer review, and a dashboard with aggregated machine and human formative and summative writing assessment data. The following Scholar features are only available to Common Ground Knowledge Community members as part of their membership. Please email us at support@cgscholar.com if you would like the complimentary educator account that comes with participation in a Common Ground conference. Create projects for groups of students, involving draft, peer review, revision and publication. Publish student works to each student$s personal portfolio space, accessible through the web for class discussion. Create and distribute surveys. Evaluate student work using a variety of measures in the assessment dashboard.

Scholar is a generation beyond learning management systems. It is what we term a Digital Learning Platform, it transforms learning by engaging students in powerfully horizontal #social knowledge$ relationships. For more information, visit: www.learning.cgscholar.com.
