The 1st PARSE Biennial Research Conference (5th and 6th November 2015) Faculty of Fine, Applied and Performing Arts, University of Gothenburg, Sweden CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS – Panels, Papers, Performances, Screenings, and Workshops. The first biennial PARSE conference at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden (5thand 6thNovember 2015) takes as its point of departure the question of TIME. Confirmed Keynote Speakers are; Jalal Toufic Coco Fusco Bruno Latour Susan Howe Time arguably has always been at the center of the research initiatives of the natural sciences, of philosophy and of the many different practices of history and social criticism. However, time also occupies a central place for the curiosity and attention of artist researchers across all the arts. The intensification of the question of time has, in recent years, prompted some to speak of a “temporal turn” across the disciplines. This conference seeks to bring together a range of researchers, drawn mainly from the artistic fields but also inviting researchers from across all domains (sciences and humanities) to consider questions with respect to the practices, processes and perturbations of time. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: constructions of contemporaneity time and the aesthetic time and affect gendered time queer times chronophobia chronopolitics chronotopes durational practices public time network time the temporal regime of the gift globalization, instantaneity and temporal collapse the nostalgia of capital the temporal imaginaries of sustainability and ecological practices the time of the political labour time and forms of life the time of the poem after narrative time empire time revolutionary time dead-time, end-time, out-of-time, behind-the-times and again next time… Contributions are invited in the form of papers, presentations, artistic interventions, readings, panels, performances, public actions, screenings and workshops. We are especially interested in contributions that critically reflect upon, and/or in some way work to modify the familiar conventions of the academic paper, the panel discussion and the artist’s talk.
