We’re delighted to announce that the ‘Perverse Collections’ project team (most of us, anyway) will be presenting at the 2nd Global Audiovisual Archiving Conference in Toronto in July 2024.
As the Archive/Counterarchive team put it, “The biennial Global Audiovisual Archiving Conference is an opportunity for scholars, archivists, artists, curators, filmmakers, students, and film enthusiasts from across the world to gather and explore contemporary professional, artistic, and socio-political issues affecting audiovisual heritage today. The aim of the conference is to broaden the knowledge and connections within the global archival community, leading to new insights into the material and cultural resonances of archival approaches to sound and moving image in different parts of the world.”
The PERCOL panel has the title “Forging Connections: On the Mobility and Malleability of Europe’s LGBTQ+ Archives”. We’ll report back after the event itself!
