“Uncanny Media” Conference

Uncanny Media is “An International Conference on the Gothic Shadows of Mediation” being held next month on Aug 7-9, 2008 in Utrecht, Netherlands. With keynote speakers like Fred Botting (author of Gothic) and guest authors like Patrick McGrath (author of Trauma and The Grotesque), in addition to numerous academic panels, performances, and various gothic lifestyle events, this sounds like a fullblown experience more than a convention. (Wish I could attend.)

Update 07/05/08:

They have posted the conference programme, which includes abstracts to papers being delivered.
