CAMRA will discuss the March 2022 Screening Scholarship Media Festival (SSMF) "Pause" during CEE’s April Third Thursday.About this eventThe graduate student group CAMRA will discuss the recent Screening Scholarship Media Festival (SSMF) during CEE’s April Third Thursday. Members of the CAMRA directors’ team and the SSMF planning committee will speak about the process of building and launching this year’s festival. SSMF "PAUSE"Each year, the Screening Scholarship Media Festival (SSMF) provides a creative, collaborative space to engage with diverse multimedia projects. We explore the affordances and challenges of multimodal representational strategies in research, and we interrogate their social implications. SSMF is a hybrid between a traditional academic conference and a film/media festival. We strive to bridge the gap between art and science by bringing together scholars, artists, educators, and activists. This year’s SSMF was organized around the theme Pause. We understand pause as mobility and immobility, as waiting, as rest and recuperation, but also as a refusal and political strategy and action.For whom is pause a privilege? For whom is it a need for existence? And how do our practices respond to the notions of pause? What do pauses encompass? The festival features projects that explore pause as an intentional engagement with suspension, as well as a way of being.

We ask questions about the affordances, challenges, and possibilities of multimodal scholarship in teaching, learning, mediamaking, and knowledge production. Our aim is to support media-based research and pedagogies, with an explicit focus on: (1) providing practical guidelines for evaluation of multimodal research; (2) utilizing participatory, digital, and ethnographic methodologies; (3) creating digital and physical spaces for multimodal work to be showcased; (4) critically examining how technology is changing the processes of teaching and learning.
