项目摘要

The DSMN will explore how selected diaspora screen media texts including documentaries and short films engage with new media and the digital world of the internet to create new global forms of visual awareness considered as 'glocal imaginaries'. Building on recent work that traces the global mobilization of culture, the project will fill a gap in current research by using British Asian and Black British screen texts as case studies in identifying how 'glocal' formats of the new media align with or juxtapose national, regional or transnational perspectives of today's increasingly fluid visual culture (i.e. here routed through Birmingham and Northampton).The network events will explore diaspora screen media texts' engagement with contemporary 'media ecologies' (Fuller 2005) in order to shape new understandings of the locatedness and mobility of diasporic audiences. It will provide an arena for dialogue between the educational sector, creative professionals and the general public including student groups and migrant communities with which participants have affiliations. In defining 'glocal' imaginaries (e.g. in media examples and their distribution), the project will examine how the work of representative filmmakers, cultural practitioners and writers is viewed by the public who use social media, and together create an open reciprocal relationship that redefines and represents diaspora themes (e.g. cultural identity, relocation, cultural translation, home and belonging, religious beliefs and practices). Methodologically the network will articulate new cross-cutting debates on diasporic media cultures, address recent modes of access to diaspora screen media texts, and communication through social media. In identifying the changing landscape of film and online media production, reception, and promotion it asks:1. How are diasporic screen media changing in terms of social impact through modification of themes and issues via interventions by new media?2. Does new media's remapping of diasporic screen texts' traditional concerns encourage a more nuanced 'glocal imaginary' and how might this be defined? The workshops and symposium will address through a specific research question (see CfS) elements of the interrelationship between diaspora cinema and new media ecologies implied by these two key research questions:1. University of Northampton (UoN): 'Black British and British Asian Cinema and New Media' will focus on the current state of diaspora screen media texts and digital technologies used in production and reception. The changing circulation and consumption patterns of visual culture due to the impact of social media and digital technologies, will feature in discussions involving researchers and industry practitioners, film festival curators at the Errol Flynn Filmhouse (Northampton), FlatPack Film Festival and Midland Arts Centre (Birmingham), university students and the public. 2. Midlands Arts Centre (MAC), Birmingham: 'Social Networks and New Media' will examine the new media formats of diasporic screen media texts. Their changing role due to new media uses will be addressed by industry practitioners, film festival programmers, university students and early career researchers. Partners, e.g. Threshold Studios (Northampton), HOME (Manchester) and MACE (Lincoln), will be invited. 3. Birmingham City University (BCU): 'Globalising the Local in Diaspora Cinema and Media', a two-day symposium with invited speakers, film-makers, university students, members of public. Drawing on workshop findings, presentations will track new pathways to a glocal imaginary identified in the case studies associated with new media. Keynote speakers will be John Akomfrah, director of Handsworth Songs, and Vijay Mishra, author of Bollywood Cinema: Temples of Desire (2013) and Theorising the Diasporic Imaginary (2007). All network partners and stakeholders will be invited. 4. Events will be accompanied by screenings at venues.

DSMN 将探索选定的侨民屏幕媒体文本（包括纪录片和短片）如何与新媒体和互联网数字世界相结合，以创建新的全球形式的视觉意识，被视为“全球本土想象”。该项目以最近追踪文化全球动员的工作为基础，将通过使用英国亚裔和英国黑人屏幕文本作为案例研究来填补当前研究的空白，以确定新媒体的“全球本土化”格式如何与当今日益流动的视觉文化的国家、地区或跨国视角相结合或并置（即这里通过伯明翰和北安普顿）。网络活动将探讨侨民屏幕媒体文本与当代“媒体生态”（Fuller 2005），以形成对散居受众的位置和流动性的新理解。它将为教育部门、创意专业人士和公众（包括参与者所属的学生团体和移民社区）之间的对话提供一个舞台。在定义“全球本地化”想象时（例如在媒体示例及其发行中），该项目将研究使用社交媒体的公众如何看待代表性电影制作人、文化从业者和作家的作品，并共同创建一种开放的互惠关系，重新定义和代表侨民主题（例如文化身份、迁移、文化翻译、家园和归属、宗教信仰和习俗）。从方法上讲，该网络将阐明关于侨民媒体文化的新的跨领域辩论，解决最近访问侨民屏幕媒体文本的模式以及通过社交媒体进行交流的问题。在确定电影和在线媒体制作、接受和推广不断变化的格局时，它提出以下问题：1。散居国外的屏幕媒体如何通过新媒体的干预来改变主题和问题，从而在社会影响方面发生变化？2．新媒体对侨民屏幕文本传统关注点的重新映射是否会鼓励更细致的“全球本土想象”？这该如何定义？研讨会和研讨会将通过一个具体的研究问题（参见 CfS）来讨论这两个关键研究问题所隐含的侨民电影与新媒体生态之间相互关系的要素：1．北安普顿大学（UoN）：“英国黑人和英国亚洲电影与新媒体”将重点关注侨民屏幕媒体文本以及制作和接收中使用的数字技术的现状。由于社交媒体和数字技术的影响，视觉文化的流通和消费模式正在发生变化，研究人员和行业从业者、埃罗尔·弗林电影馆（北安普顿）的电影节策展人、FlatPack 电影节和米德兰艺术中心（伯明翰）、大学生和公众将成为讨论的重点。 2. 伯明翰米德兰艺术中心（MAC）：“社交网络和新媒体”将研究流散屏幕媒体文本的新媒体格式。行业从业者、电影节程序员、大学生和早期职业研究人员将讨论他们因新媒体使用而发生的角色变化。合作伙伴，例如Threshold Studios（北安普顿）、HOME（曼彻斯特）和 MACE（林肯）将受邀参加。 3. 伯明翰城市大学 (BCU)：“海外侨民电影和媒体的本地化”，为期两天的研讨会，邀请演讲者、电影制作人、大学生、公众参加。根据研讨会的研究结果，演讲将追踪与新媒体相关的案例研究中确定的全球本土想象的新途径。主讲人包括 Handsworth Songs 导演 John Akomfrah 和《宝莱坞电影：欲望殿堂》(Bollywood Cinema: Temples of Desire) (2013) 和《流散想象理论理论》(Theorising the Disporic Imaginary) (2007) 的作者 Vijay Mishra。所有网络合作伙伴和利益相关者都将受到邀请。 4. 活动期间将在场馆放映。
