SIEF2025 Unwriting

SIEF2025 in Aberdeen

 

Call for Papers & Posters

The call for papers & posters for SIEF2025 in Aberdeen, Scotland is now open and will run until December 17, 2024.

The organizers invite you to make your submissions. Please start by reading instructions and rules on the CFP page, then peruse the great mix of accepted panels, roundtables and workshops. Here you can find the programme.
SIEF2025 will be a hybrid congress allowing authors to present their work and participate in workshops or roundtables both in person and virtually.
The theme of the congress is “Unwriting” a powerful tool with which to retract, or rewrite, some of what has been inscribed or recorded, allowing us to reshape that which power has imposed and presenting an opportunity for those who have often only been written about.

Call for Films

The call for films for SIEF2025 in Aberdeen, Scotland is now open and runs until February 3, 2025.

For the film programme, we encourage submissions that engage with the process of unwriting, challenge hegemonic frameworks which limit us to predetermined paths and casually accepted paradigms. Ethnologists, folklorists, cultural and social anthropologists, and representatives of related disciplines (e.g. urban planning, architecture, design) and institutions (museums, archives, etc.), as well as filmmakers and other artists (e.g. photographers, sound designers) are encouraged to submit film proposals for screening and discussion during the conference.
