Placing Nonfiction: a symposium


Placing Nonfiction: Politics, Poetics, Practices

Tuesday 10 December, 9am–5pm
Design Hub, RMIT University

 

Placing Nonfiction is a one-day symposium presented by RMIT University’s nonfictionLab, with keynote speakers, Prof Ross Gibson and Overland editor Dr Jeff Sparrow.

From the essay, film-making, poetry, documentary, vernacular media, digital archives, memoir and design, nonfiction is increasingly a site of creative, theoretical and analytical interest. This inaugural nonfictionLab Symposium 2013 seeks to place some markers, critical and adventuresome, across the interdisciplinary domain of nonfiction studies.

Registration is free, but essential. Read the program for the day, or visit the nonfictionLab for more information.

Overland is a not-for-profit magazine with a proud history of supporting writers, and publishing ideas and voices often excluded from other places.
