[UWcinema] [Pacific Northwest Media Commons] Next Year's Work-In-Progress, Upcoming Event, and New Social Media Pages

[UW Cinema Studies List]

Hello everyone,

I am writing to update you all with exciting developments for the Pacific Northwest Media Commons. With the invaluable aid of my new co-organizer, Lauren Berliner, we have created next year’s schedule for work-in-progress events, created social media sites and a logo for the PNWMC, and are all set for this month’s talk by Dr. Zoë Druick.

The schedule for 2023’s work-in-progress events is attached to this email. We will have presentations from Dr. Benedict Stork, Dr. Susan Harewood, Dr. Clare Wilkinson, Dr. Mal Ahern, Dr. John Trafron, and Dr. Ariana Ochoa Camacho. Please circulate this flyer to any interested parties. All events will be held online over Zoom.

Additionally, we still have two more events for 2022. On Friday, November 18th Dr. Druick will present “System Jams: Frederick Wiseman’s Documentaries Through a Cybernetic Lens” (flyer attached) and on December 2nd Dr. Johanna Goss will present “Ray Johnson, Mail Art, and Network Aesthetics.”

Finally, thanks to Lauren, we now have a Facebook page where members can find out about upcoming events and post their own announcements to the broader community. This page can be found here:

We are also now on Instagram at: @pnw_media_commons

Please help spread the word about our upcoming events and share our social media accounts with anyone you think might be interested! As always, if you are interested in hosting or proposing an event as part of the PNWMC, please do not hesitate to reach out to Lauren and me. We welcome your involvement in any form!

Sincerely,
-Ben
