A journal of television and new media

2012 Overview

We are pleased to announce the fourth Flow Conference will be held from November 1st to November 3rd, 2012 at the University of Texas at Austin.

The Flow Conference is hosted by the graduate students and faculty of the Radio-Television-Film department at the University of Texas at Austin. The conference is a series of roundtable discussions with topics created by Flow columnists, organized around the future of television and media culture and scholarship.

The goal of the Flow Conference is conversation. There are no plenary sessions and participants are asked to submit short position papers (not full-length essays). We want to promote discussion amongst scholars, members of the media industries, media activists, fans, and policy-makers over crucial issues related to television and media.
