This Spring (April 12th and 13th) UC Santa Barbara is hosting a 
conference entitled "Terminal," a collaborative effort of a 
number of departments on campus, funded by the UC Humanities 
Research Institute and UCSB's Interdisciplinary Humanities 
Center. The conference explores the role played by disciplinary 
and other institutionalized knowledges in the cultural 
production of death.

Concurrent with the UCSB conference, yet extending far beyond 
it, is a visual component entitled "Terminals: Considering the 
End," funded through Intercampus Arts. Like the conference it 
compliments, the visual component will investigate how death and 
ways of "knowing" death have been culturally encoded and 
conceptually constrained. A major part of this component will be 
an online exhibition comprised of individually curated 
galleries, accessible at seven of the UC campuses, the 
University Art Museum at UCSB, and a number of other 
participating sites. These galleries will remain in (or out of) 
place indefinitely, forming the basis of a rich and growing set 
of resources related to the cultural construction of death and 
dying.

Since the goal is to have your artwork accessible to the widest 
possible audience, your contributions should be submitted in a 
format not restricted by platform.
