Media conference for Trinity
The annual Cyfrwng conference will be held at Trinity University College on the 6 and 7 May 2010.
Cyfrwng’s aim is to give academics, students and media practitioners the opportunity to deliberate key issues relating to the media in Wales giving a platform to the fields of Film, Television, Radio, Journalism, New Media and Theatre and Performance in particular.
“We are looking forward to welcoming the conference to Trinity and to invite the higher education sector and the industry to get together” said lecturer Non Vaughan Williams, who is responsible for organising the conference with her colleagues at Trinity and UW Lampeter.
“We are currently inviting papers for the conference on the theme of “Voices”. The theme clearly offers a variety of interpretations, for example: new voices, the individual voice, voices of the unheard, alternative voices, technology and the voice, voice and plurality, or voices from the past. Other subject areas may also be combined with that of the study of media in Wales such as politics, history, economics, languages, music etc.In addition to papers reflecting upon the main theme of the conference, we would welcome suggestions for supplementary sessions looking specifically at the role of media production within academia.”
