The ethics of spectatorship raises complex and compelling questions about the roles and responsibilities of audiences in engaging with visual media. This conference seeks to explore the ethical dimensions of the spectator's role, the way in which individual spectatorship is experienced, and our understanding of the scope and practice of spectatorship in action.
