New Media Working Group
The New Media Working Group aims to combine academic perspectives from all edges of new media in order to serve as an interdisciplinary venue for learning, discussion, and research. Our group includes members across the disciplines of the history of art, art practice, architecture, engineering, the school of information, African American studies, sociology, performance studies, music, ethnic studies, film, and rhetoric. Since the group’s meetings are structured according to the research interests of our diverse members, our intellectual focus is dynamic and interdisciplinary in nature.

Non-Fiction Film Group
The aim of this project is to bring together a number of students and scholars from UC Berkeley whose work is concerned with issues of visual mimesis in film, new media and art and who are interested in sharing their own research and investigate communal workgrounds. Our hope is to better understand and promote the multi-faceted field of non-fiction film. Our calendar of events for the 2011/2012 academic year will be divided in two parts: in Fall 2011, we will meet on a bi-weekly basis to discuss a pre-established number of readings.
