I was in a panel with David Hanan (who presented a paper on Benyamin Sueb), one of the leading scholars on Indonesian Cinema. I even visited his house and saw his great Indonesia film collection (including the rare ones).
and I met new friends, including Sun Jung (who visited Jakarta for her Korea and Fandom research) and Ramon Lobato (who later published a great book, Shadows Economy of Cinema).
Here's the program: http://artsonline.monash.edu.au/film-culture/files/2012/09/program-b-for-bad-cinema-2.pdf
some of the papers were published in Colloquy journal (including this artice): http://artsonline.monash.edu.au/colloquy/432/
Some other were published in an edited collection.
And in 2012 I started to have a deeper research on this topic for my PhD study.
Ah, time flies.
Oh ya, during the conference, i flew to Canberra for my very first public talk at Australian National University. I was invited by Prof. Ariel Heryanto. to present a paper titled "
The Anomalous Islamic Movies and other Recent Issues on Representation of
Muslim World in Post-New Order Indonesian Cinema"
