Our conference aims to encourage studies that explore an emerging paradigm in intermediality studies centred on "affective intermediality", and we hope to initiate a friendly, scholarly debate regarding the relevance and productivity of this approach. The necessity of such an “affective turn” of intermediality studies arises from viewing intermediality as an intricate and highly performative process of communication between humans within a particular context of material reality and historical time, not just as a “transfer”, a “combination” or “reference” of media characteristics or representations, i.e.

We invite proposals for a special issue of the journal Porn Studies focused on the impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) on pornography and sex work. The rapid advancement of AI technology and its increasing influence on these sectors present pressing ethical and societal issues that require further examination.

Avenue Campus, University of Southampton, SO17 1BF

With the support of the Doctoral College and the Faculty of Arts and Humanities at the University of Southampton, we are pleased to invite proposals for the ECR-led conference ‘Virtual Space and Interactivity in Streaming Media within Transnational Contexts’.

I am delighted to invite submissions for an edited volume by Dr Serena Clark titled Reclaiming Humanitarianism, Development, and Peace After Crises: Responding Through Disruption and Adapting to the New Normal, with the Helsinki University Press series, The Impact of Pandemics. The proposal has tentatively been approved, and I am now seeking chapter abstracts for a final proposal review.

I welcome submissions from all disciplines and/or theoretical perspectives; I am particularly seeking research by early career and first-generation contributors, and historically underrepresented scholars, such as women of color (e.g., Black and African-American, Asian and Asian-American, Indigenous, and other minority communities), and LGBTQ+.

Digital Rhetoric and Borders: Human Mobility Between Mexico and the United States

With its massive world, open-ended quests, and near-limitless options for customization, Elden Ring––the most critically acclaimed video game of 2022––is designed to be replayed. But it is also a text that demands to be reread. Whether we study its environmental storytelling or the lore in item descriptions, the game’s fragmented narrative fuels exegeses that resemble the long history of Biblical interpretation, midcentury criticism of modernist enigmas like Ulysses, and hermeneutic fandoms surrounding popular culture like Twin Peaks. Its spatiotemporally disjunctive universe frustrates efforts to interpret its world “realistically” and prompts one to place it in dialogue with theories of unconventional space and time.
