  DIARY SUMMARY FOR 2004

JULY
Off-Screen Spaces:
Regionalism and Globalised Cultures

An international conference on Film, Television and Media: Cultures and Policies
28-30 July – University of Ulster, Coleraine (Portrush site)

NOVEMBER
Practice-based research – is it?
A Postgraduate training event is being planned for late November on ‘practice-based research’, with Patrick Keiller confirmed as one of the speakers. This will bring together practitioners and supervisors – as well as current students – to discuss how practice and research can support each other, and how the outcomes measure up as ‘research’ in a dominantly academic-theoretical culture.
