Call for Papers
‘Curating Affective Technologies’
Following our Flinders University (SA)
July ‘Curating Affective Technologies’ un-conference and paper workshop
we’re calling
for submission of full 5000 word papers for a special issue of Media
International
Australia (MIA) slated for publication in November 2017 and edited by
Drs. Son
Vivienne and Tully Barnett.
Our 2016 humanities research theme ‘Technologies
of Memory and Affect’ has offered multiple avenues for engagement. We
call for
papers on themes including but not limited to:
* Objects that transmit or mediate
cultural memory (such as photographs, websites, handmade paper, digital
media,
art or activism)
* Objects that capture the personal (books,
movies, websites, media);
* Places that catalyse social and
cultural memory (landscapes, sites, spaces);
* Digitisation processes that layer
multiple strands of affect;
* Digitisation processes that preserve
and discover historical and family documents
* The materiality of maker cultures
* The body in digital media
* Social media as cultural memory
technology
* The workings of gender, sexuality and
the body in the mediation of cultural memory
Important dates:
30 Dec 300 word abstract
16 Jan authors notified
6 March deadline 5000 word papers
8 May reviews back to authors
19 June author revisions finalised
