The International Panorama Council together with Lusofona University Early Visual Media Lab and the Art History Institute (IHA, NOVA-FCSH/IN2PAST) invite scholars, artists, panorama enthusiasts and visual media researchers to submit proposals for presentations that explore the theme “The World at a Glance. Panoramic and Peep Technologies.’” This recasting of Robert Barker’s original title for his invention (1787), “Nature at a Glance” (in French, “La Nature à Coup d’ Oeil”), will explore the modern desire to experience the world visually through panoramic or peep technologies and to embark in virtual travels.
This next IPC conference in Lisbon will showcase such intersections and remediations with the exhibition The Cosmorama: The 19th-Century Hidden Travels, held at the Portuguese Cinematheque. Curated by the research project Curiositas. The conference will take place July 2–4, 2025, with an optional post-conference excursion on July 5.
The final conference program with abstracts and keywords will be published in the “Conference Report” section of the Panoramic and Immersive Media Studies (PIMS) Yearbook, Volume 3, 2025. Presenters will also have the opportunity to contribute full-length works for publication consideration in other sections of the PIMS Yearbook. Learn more by exploring the past call for proposals, PIMS Yearbook Call for Proposals, Volume 2, 2025, and the De Gruyter page for the PIMS Yearbook, Volume 1, 2024.
