Beginning with Volume 3 (2006-2007), the journal is being hosted by UCLA's new Center for Performance Studies (www.performancestudies.ucla.edu), an interdisciplinary collaboration among faculty and graduate students who use performance as an organizing lens into the study of culture, technology, and the body (to name a few). With this move, we are broadening our scope to include works that focus on either the body or technology (rather than requiring works that involve both). This new focus will allow for a variety of scholars and artist to contribute to the discussion of the journal's topic, offering a rich and interdisciplinary conversation.
The journal welcomes rolling submissions from artists and scholars working in these areas of study. We encourage the submission of scholarly essays, interviews, media/web-based art works, and documentation of dance, visual, sound, and performance art. The deadline for submissions is April 1, 2006, yet we are always accepting submissions for future volumes. (See timeline below) For consideration, please submit your work with a short biography (50 words) in electronic form by e-mail. All articles should follow MLA style and should be attached as MS Word documents or PDF files. For artistic submissions, if your work is accepted, the journal requires either a hard copy of your work or high-resolution files uploaded to the Internet. Works of art should also be accompanied by a short write-up by the artist that elucidates, expands or reflects on a conceptual or technological aspect of the work.
About the Dance and New Media Project |
EXTENSIONS is produced by the UCLA Dance and New Media Project. The Project brings together graduate students and faculty from the departments of Center for Performance Studies, World Arts and Cultures, Design Media Arts, and Film/TV to explore new intersections between dance and emerging technologies and how virtual space affects our sense of the body, place, culture, and collaboration. Founded in 2002 by Norah Zuniga Shaw, the Dance and New Media Project produces EXTENSIONS and presents annual dance on camera screenings for new work by UCLA students and faculty. |
