Conference Submission Form

Sponsored by the Center for Research & Study at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, the graduate student conference is organized by the joint effort of students at the departments of Performance Studies, Art & Public Policy, and the Martin Scorsese Department of Cinema Studies. Sprockets/Selvage/Shores foregrounds what happens in the periphery to think through the hidden history and stories that are often neglected in cultural criticism and academia. By attending to the margins, this conference strives to better understand and subvert the hegemonic power dynamics embedded in our social structure.

The Graduate Student Conference was also made possible with support from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, and Dean Rubén Polendo.
