University of Music and Theatre Munich, 8-10 September 2024

Essays sought for a survey of 1960s military operations such as: COINTELPRO (US); CHAOS (US); Phoenix (Vietnam); Condor (South America); ORDEN (El Salvador); Jakarta (Indonesia); OBAN (Brazil) and other operations that networked societies prior to the Internet. Focus on how evident or non-evident the communications were that supported these operations; the staffing and hardware; how operations were used; and, how they contributed to social and financial inequality and political polarization, in the populations they monitored.

As scholars’ engagement with media-archaeological study have increased, so have students’ interest in the field’s approaches, methods, and philosophies. Many courses on media history and theory today include sessions focused on media archaeology.

2024 EALA Annual Conference

I am looking for a few educators and researchers who are interested in using generative AI in the classroom to promote cultural studies and learning language. I plan to propose a panel for this year’s ELO conference, which will be held online from July 18 to 21.

The student-centered ethic is well established in humanities classrooms, so the question for this panel is how to use AI to further this goal. In particular, this year’s organizers are desirous of submissions that consider community and creativity. Papers that explore strategies to harness the potential for positive futures and/or elicit awareness of dystopian potentials are welcome.

Call for Papers: Fashion, Style & Popular Culture

Special Issue: ‘Artificial Intelligence: Design, Production, Media and Consumers’ 

Guest Editors: Catharine Weiss, Lasell University, USA and Mary Ruppert, Washington University, St. Louis, USA

The Journal of Gaming & Virtual Worlds invites submissions for a guest edited special issue exploring consent in games. The issues surrounding consent are far-reaching, and what constitutes consent continues to be a live subject of debate in wide-ranging arenas (including healthcare choices, data access, gun ownership rights, and sexual assault). As discussions around consent and entitlement swirl around the public sphere, game scholars and designers have a critical opportunity to explore this crucial cultural conversation through the lens of games.
