You might be interested in proposing a conference paper on the subject of Cinematic Extraterrestrials. This is a multidisciplinary topic area: Film Students, Computer Techs, (Astro)Biologists, English Majors, Historians, Popular Culture Studies, Psychologist, Sociologists, Anthropologists, Political Scientists and even Economists... All are welcome. Even if you don't choose to submit a paper proposal, feel free to join us in Chicago this October/November. We'll be the crowd of people wearing pocket protectors and snorting to laugh at our own jokes about the way ETs reflect and affect various things about human culture. :| Links below will lead you to the Call for Papers. (Remember: there's a new August 1st deadline. Half-baked proposals are welcome...we can discuss options for fuller development.)
