UCH in the Making… online session
Session Organisers – Helen Carter, Emily Jateff and Zainab Tahir.
Within this online and conference session, videos provide a platform for presentation and discussion of how we address and understand maritime and underwater cultural heritage. Screen/documentary is explored as a medium and as a tool for Underwater Cultural Heritage (UCH) management, investigation, teaching and interpretation. These media engage the public with UCH and provide access to sites that are otherwise limited.
This virtual session will be operational from June to November 2011. Video clips will be embedded in the conference website video page and linked for live discussion. Longer versions of accepted video clips will be screened and discussed as a session at the November conference. Attendance at the conference is preferred but not mandatory.
Submitters: Please send an abstract (no more than 200 words), title, authors, one page project summary, and short video clip (no more than 5 minutes) as QuickTime, avi or wmd file (or comparable format). Videos can be submitted to any of the session chairs. The first submission deadline is 31 March 2011.
