Call for Papers: Scene

Special Issue: Scene on Sustainability

Aims & Scope

Scene is dedicated to a critical examination of space and scenic production. This double-blind peer-reviewed journal provides an opportunity for dynamic debate, reflection and criticism. With a strong interdisciplinary focus, we welcome articles, interviews, visual essays, reports from conferences and festivals. We want to explore new critical frameworks for the scholarship of creating a scene.

Special Issue

Scene invites submissions for its special issue entitled, ‘Scene on Sustainability’. Such papers should address any angle covered by the UN SDGs: https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/?menu=1300.

This can include the intersections of arts, design, performance and any aspects of the creative and cultural industries. Possible themes for inclusion include, but are not limited to, the following: Cinema; television; commercials; theatre; opera; musical; interior design; lighting design; costume design; theme parks; scenography; architecture; visual special effects; visual arts; virtual sets; multivision; location sets; games design and virtual environments; and modes of spectating.

The Sustainable Development Goals are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They address the global challenges we face, including those related to poverty, inequality, climate, environmental degradation, prosperity, and peace and justice. The Goals interconnect and in order to leave no one behind, it is important that we achieve each Goal and target by 2030.

Full papers should be in line with one or more SDG. Submissions should be sent to: Christine.white@dmu.ac.uk by 1st May 2019.
