123rd PAMLA Conference Thursday, November 12 - Sunday, November 15, 2026 in Seattle, Washington

deadline for submissions:

For over a century, Asian film and media have offered sites ripe for cultural analyses. While resisting the essentializing label of "Asian," this session seeks to benefit from conversations that emerge when we recognize the heterogeneity of Asia as well as the commonalities that run through its various cultural products. In 2026, this session invites particular attention to power and hierarchy in Asian film and media, welcoming analyses that move beyond the binary of domination and resistance to explore the more ambivalent, entangled, and contradictory ways that power and resistance operate across cultural forms and social life.

GORDON PASK 1928 - 1996 - 2026 — CYBERNETICS, CONVERSATION, INTERACTION & AI
University of Vienna, Austria. Thursday 17 September 2026.

Experience shows that unless you are against something, nobody takes the slightest notice of what you say. On this occasion, the most obvious target for anti-sentiment, is a conference; so I am against conferences, today. Not against this one, for that would be rude, and not against any in particular, for that would be overly general. Taken as a social occasion, as a surrogate for learned society, a conference is a capital affair. (G. Pask, addressing the Society for General Systems Research, 1979)
