V International Congress on Visual Culture

This congress proposes a dialogue between history and visual culture, in order to reflect “visually” issues applicable to that great reality called Latin America, such as political propaganda, the configuration of collective memories, the construction of the nation, the articulation of identities and subjectivities, among others, using the principle of scrutinizing the image from production to reception and consumption.

5th Annual International Conference on Communication and Management (ICCM2019)

The main purpose of this Annual International Conference is to bring together academics, students, researchers and professionals from different disciplines and cultural backgrounds, and encourage them to present their work, communicate, exchange and collaborate.

Additionally, we seek to build bridges between academia and professionals in the domains treated by this interdisciplinary conference. Thus we welcome Laboratories, Workshops, and Seminars to demonstrate projects, exchange and discuss ideas and share best- practices regarding the conference themes.

Action Cinema Now

This conference seeks to bring together scholars from a range of disciplines in a cross-continental, intercultural, intermedial and interdisciplinary examination of this wide-ranging form. To analyse action cinema in its heterogeneity, and in particular to skew away from traditional foci of action scholarship (such as the white cis-gendered male hero), the conference will be organised around four thematic areas: (1) regional exchange, (2) aesthetics, (3) performance, and (4) industry.

12th Visual and Cultural Studies Graduate Conference

The Visual and Cultural Studies Graduate Conference is organized biennially by PhD students in Visual and Cultural Studies. This conference invites emerging scholars and practitioners in the humanities, arts, and social sciences to consider the ways in which idleness works across cultures. How might the concept of idleness be seen as a space of inquiry and contestation, and how might it become generative and productive? Hosted by the University of Rochester’s Graduate Program in Visual and Cultural Studies, this conference aims to foster an environment for interdisciplinary communication, knowledge exchange, and collaboration.

TRANSFORMING CULTURAL INSTITUTIONS AND THEIR USERS

TRANSFORMING CULTURAL INSTITUTIONS AND THEIR USERS – Current Agendas in the Interdisciplinary Turn to Participation

The seminar introduces, and offers a space for discussing, important current agendas for cultural institutions interested in participation. It begins with the premise that the present cultural, institutional and academic interest in participation often challenges traditional professional practices as well as distinctions like institution/citizen, professional/user, expert knowledge/lay experience and cultural sector/other sectors. In this way, the turn to new forms of participatory engagements also calls for interdisciplinary interaction and inspiration.

Realities and Fantasies: Relations, Transformations, Discontinuities

In this workshop, we take on the continuous and renewed interest in the real in its relation to fantasy, illusion, and imagination. Whereas typically, debates on realism are focused on its contrast to idealism or nominalism, we ask: What are the contemporary relations between realities and fantasies? How do reality and fantasy speak to intellectual imaginings and possible futures? What role can or should fictions, fantasies, and idealizations play in social, political, individual, and metaphysical change? We are interested in presentations that take on the ways in which reality and fantasy relate, how they may contrast, and how, and under what conditions, the one may transform into the other.

MuDD2019 - Multilingualism, Diversity and Democracy

The MuDD2019 international conference will bring together international experts from across the global-North and the global-South with the intent of interrogating the continuing dichotomized situation (in particular in nation-states like Sweden) wherein mono-lingualism and mono-culturalism constitutes the norm and multilingualism and diversity are seen as the exception. MuDD2019 also has the potential to create new knowledge of relevance for present day challenges related to mobility, migration and communication across virtual-physical spaces.

The 5th International Conference on Media and Mass Communication

The digital revolution has changed the characteristics, the channels, and the modalities of communicating through the media. The social and cultural changes of globalization have helped to change the media. However, the media can be central factors of cultural change and collective imagery both locally and globally. The search for new scientific and professional paradigms that help in the interpretation and accompaniment of this double change is the goal of MEDCOM 2019 .

8th International Conference of Communication, Media, Technology and Design

The themes of the conference aiming for the exchange of information on research, development, and applications of Communication Technologies, Social Media, Visual Communication and Design, Integrated Marketing Communication, Communication Education, Communication Barriers, Health Communication, Media Management and Economics, Political Communication and Communication and Media Studies in General.

Words as a Battlefield: Contemporary Political and Media Discourse

The 21st century has brought significant changes to both the media and political landscape, impacting and altering political discourse. The position of the mainstream media as a neutral actor in reporting the news continues to be tainted with the desires of corporate sponsors, further transforming and shaping the message. In addition, the role of social media in political communication has also changed, as politicans communicate more directly with the public. Combined, we find ourselves situated in an era where facts are not facts, allegations of 'fake news' are commonplace, and more people are turning to social media for their news.   In such a time, it is important for experts across disciplines to gather and examine political discourse, specifically, what constitues successful political discourse and how ideologies are reflected through the languages of media and politics.

Sexuality and Borders

Sexuality and Borders is a two day symposium hosted and funded by New York University’s Department of Media, Culture, and Communication. It is co-sponsored by NYU’s Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality, the DFG-funded research training group “Minor Cosmopolitanisms” (University of Potsdam, Germany) and is supported by LSE’s Department of Gender Studies.

International Play Festival

The purpose of the CounterPlay festival is to explore, inspire and support play in all areas of society, building on our three main pillars: playful learning, playful working and playful living. The theme of CounterPlay ’19 is “playing at the edge”, and we welcome different forms of proposals that reflect this in one way or another. The theme is open for interpretation and fresh ideas: we invite you to play with the theme and identify your own ways of approaching the edge.
