Summary description:

We are seeking to appoint creative practitioners 
who have a strong international profile in any 
field of Digital Media research and Film research 
and who have a proven track record of working 
across disciplinary boundaries. These Chair 
appointments will harness, stimulate and develop 
interdisciplinary agendas in both teaching and 
research being developed in film, creative 
practice and performance across the Schools, Faculty and University.

Working closely with, and partly based in Culture 
Lab the Chairs will contribute to the 
University’s fostering of ground-breaking, 
practice-based research through innovative 
research agendas and projects. The Chairs will 
attract external research funding (for example 
from research councils and industrial sources) at 
local, national and international level.

Further appointments will be attached to the post in Digital Media.

The posts are available from 1st January 2007 or as soon as possible thereafter.
