New York: The State of Communication:
Celebrating our accomplishments 1 Questioning our assumptions
New York is the state of communication. It is home to
many of the world's communication industries, including
advertising, public relations, publishing, television, and
film. New York's colleges and universities play a key
role in training the next generation of communication
professionals.
Today's world poses unique challenges for us as
communication scholars and educators. At this point in
time, we look at the past, present and future and ask
ourselves: What is the state of communication? What
are some of the most significant recent achievements in
teaching and scholarship? What are the most important
questions that communication scholars are asking
today? What methods are being used to answer them?
What curriculum challenges are we facing? What
direction is the field headed?

1.4.1 Manhattan Theater
Special session: First Annual NYSCA Film Festival
In this program , the NYSCA conference organizers have invited four filmmakers to present their
recent documentary work. Each of these films is distinguished by filmmaker's presence as a first
person narrator. After the screening of the films, join in a discussion of contemporary documentary
filmmaking. Specifically, what are the most critical challenges for issues for such personal
documentary filmmaking, and how does this technique alter the more traditional understanding of
the documentary and an "objective" presentation?

Grace & the New Rules
This film presents an 87 year-old Southern housekeeper, a filmmaker, and the conventions of race,
class, and documentary itself. In the film, Grace Avery had cleaned Professor Fleishman's house
and picked up his mail for the last 25 years. The narrative concerns the story of the developing
relationship between Grace and the filmmaker, and implications for complicated conventions of
race, class, and indeed, documentary itself.
Seeking the Sultan, Didem Yilmaz, New School University (23 :00, video, 2003).
What happened to the members of the Ottoman Family, rulers of Turkey expelled in 1924? A
Turkish filmmaker living in New York City is on the trail: Are there Ottomans in New York? To her
surprise, she discovers the man would now have been the Sultan if the Ottomans were still in
power living in New York.
Seven Hours to Burn, Shanti Thakur, Hofstra University (9:00, 16mm film, 1999).
Filmmaker Shanti Thakur explores her Danish mother and Indian father's experiences of two
different wars based on ethnic and religious purity. Ghostly war footage is interwoven with ethereal
bodyscapes and lush, sensual abstractions.
El Paso Vietnam, Adele Ray, New School University and New York University (10:00, 16mm
film, 2002).

NYSCA 2003 Keynote Address
Keynote Speaker: John Downing, The University of Texas at Austin.
John Downing was educated at Oxford University and the London School of Economics. He taught
sociology for the first thirteen years of his academic career, but has been a Communication scholar
since 1981, when he joined the faculty at Hunter College, City University of New York. In 1990 he
accepted the position of Radio-Television-Film Department Chair at the University of Texas, Austin.
In January 2004 he will become the first Director of the new Global Media Research Center in the
College of Mass Communication and Media Arts at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale.
His published work and teaching address alternative media and social movements; racism,
ethnicity and media; political cinemas of the global South; and media in Russia during and since
the Communist period. His most recent research has focused upon the international Independent
Media Center movement. In 2004 Sage Publications will publish the Handbook of Media Studies, of
which he has been chief editor, and a co-authored book with Professor Charles Husband of
Bradford University, UK, Representing 'Race', consisting of comparative studies of media, ethnicity
and racism.
His address to NYSCA will attack a number of failings particularly characteristic of current U.S.
Communication research, and especially in the field of media. Eight in all, some of these failings
are conceptually derived, some politically derived, and others are a product of the sociology of the
U.S. academy.

IN MEMORY
NEIL POSTMAN 1931-2003
"Something can be done in school that will alter the lenses
through which one sees the world; which is to say, that nontrivial schooling can provide a point of view from which what
is can be seen clearly, what was as a living present, and what
will be as filled with possibility." -Neil Postman
