AMC2013 // Call for Session Proposals    We are now accepting session proposals for the 15th annual Allied Media Conference. The deadline to propose a hands-on workshop, panel discussion, caucus or strategy session is MARCH 8. The coordinators of the Allied Media Conference's "Imagining Better Futures Through Play" track produced a nice step-by-step guide to our session proposal process. sasa It's time to propose a session for AMC2013. Ready, steady, go! We are now accepting session proposals for the 15th annual Allied Media Conference. The deadline to propose a workshop, panel discussion, caucus or strategy session is Friday, March 8. [...]     Call for Session Proposals: (NO) Blank Slates: A DET X NOLA Cultural Exchange We find it problematic when the term "Blank Slates" or "Blank Canvas" or "Clean Slate" comes into popular use in describing Detroit or New Orleans' present states post-disaster. Neither city is truly a "Blank Slate" – indeed there are layers upon layers of rich culture and history still present. And most importantly, there are people there. [...]       Call for Session Proposals: Kids Transform The World! Calling all Kids, Tweens, Youth, Young at Heart, Parents, Families and Friends! The Intergalactic Conspiracy of Childcare Collectives (ICCC) is beginning to build a wonderful world of children’s programing for the upcoming Allied Media Conference (AMC) this June in Detroit. We are working to create a space for kids, tweens, youth, parents and childcare providers to hold our own space at the AMC. [...]     Call for Session Proposals: Science & Social Movements Why do organizers love science metaphors so much? Rhizomes, dandelions, "grassroots." Maybe it’s our conscious or subconscious desire to realign human social organization with the organization of the natural world. [...]        Call for Session Proposals: Fierce Fashion Futures Everyday we communicate something about who we are, who we want and what kind of world we want with our clothes and our bodies. How can we understand the ways that fashion builds community and simultaneously excludes from community? How can we reclaim beauty in our own fat, QTPOC, disabled, radical selves? [...]     Call for Session Proposals: Discovering Technology (DiscoTech) Lab The Discovering Technology (DiscoTech) Lab is an intersection point between the diverse media and communications practices of the Allied Media Conference.[...]     Healing Together Network Gathering seeks mini-sessions At the last Allied Media Conference, health practitioners, healers, and healing justice organizers gathered for dinner. Most said, "I want to see a North American Healing Network!" Well, we heard you! [...]     Call for Session Proposals: Research Justice Research Justice believes that communities are experts. Communities have first hand experience of oppressions, and research is a tool to package those experiences so that it can be used strategically to affect change. But is it "Just Research" or "just research"? [...]     Call for Session Proposals: I ♥ Print Media Calling all writers, editors, zine-makers, print-designers, and/or comic strip drawers, I ♥ Print Media is for you! If you are a creative organizer, activist, or dreamer that wishes you could magically print out ideas straight from your brain, then this Allied Media Conference track is for you. [...]     Call for Session Proposals: Transformative Arts Practice Space What is the role of art and artists in building an equal, liberated, and loving society? The Transformative Arts Space of the Allied Media Conference will explore the role and potential of arts in creating our world. [...]     Call for Session Proposals: Webmaking In the Webmaking track of the Allied Media Conference, we will explore the ways to use technology to build digital and human webs—networks and communities that span online and offline worlds.[...]     Call for Session Proposals: Movement//Movement Practice Space Calling all performers, healers, dancers, actors, visionaries, martial artists, space travelers, time bandits, twerkers, and body werkers![...]       Call for Session Proposals: Imagining Better Futures Through Play Everyone plays games, but why are so many of the most popular games about violence, inequality, and imperialism, and why do they misrepresent our communities for commercial gain? Can't they reflect the world we want to live in instead?[...]     Call for Proposals: Engaging Power: Media Rights & Our Movements We are now accepting proposals for the Engaging Power: Media Rights & Our Movements track for this year’s Allied Media Conference. Let’s change the rules of the game.[...]     Learn more about proposing a session March 4 @ 5PM EST. call in: 218-632-0550 (access code: 382492)     OUR NETWORK:        AMP       AMC       DF       ALLIED365       AMPTALK       AMPSTORE
