Hoofd is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Communications and New Media at the National University of Singapore (NUS). Her research interests are Issues of Representation, Feminist and Critical Theories, and Philosophy of Technology. Her work addresses the ways in which alter-globalist activists, as well as left-wing academics, mobilize discourses and divisions in an attempt to overcome gendered, raced and classed oppressions worldwide, and the ways in which such mobilization are implicated in what she calls ‘speed-elitism.’ Ingrid wrote her Master\u2019s thesis in the Departments of Women’s Studies and Film Studies at Utrecht University in The Netherlands. She has been involved in various feminist and new media activist projects, like AWARE, Indymedia, and NextGenderation.<\/p>\n Ivan Kwek is with the Department of Sociology as a lecturer, teaching courses like Visual Culture, Media and Popular Culture. Trained as an anthropologist at the School of Oriental and African Studies in London, his work focuses on media production practices in and around the Malay world.\u00a0 His interest in media is informed by a prior career as a television producer for over 16 years, working mostly in the Current Affairs and Documentary genres. Presently, he is developing his interest in the anthropology of media to consider contemporary interactions among media-related practices, space, memories and communities in a Southeast Asian context.<\/p>\n Valerie Wee lectures on film and media studies in the Department of English Language and Literature at the National University of Singapore, Singapore. In addition to her research in teen culture and the American culture industries, and Japanese and American horror films, she has published papers on science-fiction films and on issues of gender and representation in the media.<\/p>\n Chris Yeo Siew Hua graduated among the top of his cohort in Ngee Ann Polytechnic\u2019s School of Media Studies, winning the Kodak Singapore Prize for Cinematography and the Cathay Organization Gold Medal. Since then, he has graduated in Philosophy from the National University of Singapore and is a recipient of the Confucius Foundation Award. He wrote and directed short films such as AIK KHOON (in competition for the Silver Screen Awards – Singapore International Film Festival 2005) and WAKING MONKEY (The Substation\u2019s Best Film Award for the Best of First Takes 2007). Apart from producing fiction films, he has also produced a number of documentaries independently and also for broadcast television. He is also an award-winning director of photography for THE BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY PROJECT (2006) and Singapore’s first collaborative feature film LUCKY 7 (2008). His debut film IN THE HOUSE OF STRAW (2009), which he wrote and directed, premiered in competition at the Bangkok International Film Festival in 2009 and was presented at the 34th<\/sup> Sao Paulo International Film Festival in 2010, lauded by critics as a significant film of the Singapore New Wave. Yeo is one of the founding members of the 13 Little Pictures film collective and is presently holding a directing and producing post in Akanga Film Asia.<\/p>\n If you would like to attend, please RSVP to nexus at nus.edu.sg with your full name and affiliation.<\/p>\n You are invited to watch the final eight shortlisted films, all produced in 2012, and see the judges decide who wins the $500 prizes!
