CALL FOR PAPERS Feminist Media Histories: An International Journal Special Issue on Gender, Media, and Developmentalism Guest Editors: Dalila Missero & Masha Salazkina With this special issue of Feminist Media Histories we invite contributions that explore the historical role of gender within media production explicitly engaged in developmentalist projects.
Like many other contributors, I caught the TV Dictionary bug during the pandemic (bad pun intended). Making a short video and following a single idea without the pressures and efforts that go into a “traditional” video essay publication (if there is such a thing) and without the requirements of conventional scholarly-theoretical framing, appealed to me and brought a very welcome sense of play into my work routine.
The international co-production Farscape (Syfy 1999-2003; 2004) is perhaps best known for its extensive use of puppets and its (for the time) fairly explicit sexualised content. Shot in Australia with a primarily American writers room for the American Syfy Channel, the series follows American scientist John Crichton (Ben Browder) who is inadvertently thrown into deep space during a test flight.

Author’s note: Today’s Secret Word is […]. Whenever you see the word […] below, in honor of Paul Reubens, scream real loud. I was at WMNJ, Drew University’s student radio station, helping a student prep some new field recorders when the news of Paul Reubens’ death was announced.
Creating the video essay on The Good Life for the TV Dictionary – the entry was “see under lifestyle(s)” – was enjoyable. The hardest part was figuring out how to condense so much visually-arresting and often humorous material into a short space of time. Well, that and the way in which the nostalgic pleasures of rewatching this iconic show from the 1970s were often tempered by the realization of the nature of some of the content.

Los artículos científicos son la vía más expedita de difundir los avances científicos, pero el 90% de ellos no es de acceso abierto (Revista Iberoamericana de Docentes). Muchas veces necesitamos leer un paper que tiene costo, entonces llamamos a un colega que tenga credencial y que nos lo facilite, pero hay sitios que podemos utilizar para descargar gratuitamente ese artículo al que no tenemos acceso.
