Call for Responses
FLOW Conference 2012
November 1-3, 2012
The University of Texas at Austin
http://www.flowtv.org/

Deadline for 150-word abstracts:  July 13, 2012

Flow Conference 2012 is the 4th biannual conference for FlowTV.org, a
University of Texas at Austin graduate student-run, online academic journal
focusing on television and media culture.

The 2012 Flow Conference will resemble traditional academic meetings in
name only: there will be no panels, no papers, and no plenary sessions.
Instead, the event will feature a series of roundtables, each organized
around a discussion question on contemporary issues in television/media
culture and scholarship. Respondents are asked to submit a brief abstract
addressing one of the roundtable questions listed on our conference
website:  http://www.flowtv.org/conference/.

Some roundtable topics include:
Netflix as Television Producer
Teaching TV
Representation in the Post-Network Era
Anti-Fandom in the Digital Age
Micro Politics in a Digital World
Teaching Comics Studies
Queer Media Studies' Futures
