The Centre for Culture and Cultural Studies (CCCS) invites proposals for
papers, thematic panels and original media productions for Second Annual
International CCCS Conference 2014 ¡®Media: Theory and Practice¡¯

The aim of this conference revolves around a foundational impetus to shed
greater light on all relevant aspects of media studies, including mass
communication, media technology, the visual and the performing arts, TV,
radio, WEB and print media, as well as other key components of media studies
and mass communication.

We invite proposals based on media theory (particularly critical media
studies and cultural studies), and proposals that consider the relationship
between media and (popular) culture, politics, arts, new media, as pertinent
fields of study.

We welcome submissions that offer original media productions: documentary
films, fictionalized or non-narrative creative expressions. The submitted
proposal needs to contain a creative or theoretical explanation of the
submitted work. We invite projects by PhD students or submissions by teams
of students and instructors (lecturers).

Hence, the Second Annual International CCCS Conference 2014 ¡®Media: Theory
and Practice¡¯ strives to offer a dialogic space for media theorists and
practitioners. Along those lines, we invite media studies¡¯ theorists as
