UiT - Alta, 39, , Finnmark, 9510, Norway.

We invite presentations concerning how all three elements (people, place, and culture) are mutually constitutive and present in either particular artworks, at a broader level within communities or groups, or more broadly still from a comparative perspective. How do scenography, location, and setting reflect or inform engagements with place? How do audiovisual media interact with their creators’ understandings of place and their place in the world—either place as it is or place as they believe it should be? How do people working in audiovisual media and arts create and challenge narrations and representations of societies, places, and cultures? How are these media used to promote particular political, cultural, and geographical perspectives, especially perspectives from the margins or from disadvantaged groups? Can they be used to parochialise dominant or hegemonic perspectives? How do these dominant or hegemonic perspectives themselves reflect folk knowledges and taken-for-granted understandings of the world?
