Papers on all topics in screen studies have been programmed. A keynote strand, Screen Worlds, will address questions of world-making and world-building and interrogate theories and politics of ‘worlding’ and ‘unworlding’ as discussed in decolonial studies and eco-criticism. This theme will be addressed by three keynote speakers:
- Professor Lindiwe Dovey, SOAS University of London
- Professor Jennifer Fay, Vanderbilt University
- Professor Kara Keeling, University of Southern California

Unfortunately planned maintenance is taking place in June/July at the student residences nearest to the venue (Cairncross House and Kelvinhaugh Gate) therefore we have given speakers priority for booking the limited accommodation available in Queen Margaret student residence (30 minutes' walk).
