    The Moving Image (Special Issue)

    Proposals due: May 5, 2024

    Final manuscripts due: November 30, 2024

    Guest editors (in alphabetical order): Luca Antoniazzi, Daniela Currò, Simone Venturini

    The Moving Image, the peer reviewed journal of the Association of Moving Image Archivists, invites submissions for possible inclusion in a special issue on film heritage and environmental sustainability. Despite its conceptual malleability, sustainability is increasingly taken as a key concept in assessing good practice in collection stewardship and long-term viability of digital preservation. In some parts of the world, sustainability is also an increasingly relevant preoccupation of public funding bodies and private donors. Despite notable exceptions, sustainability has not been explored enough in the context of film archival studies and its potential is not yet fully developed.

    The overall objective of this special issue is threefold: (1) to shed light on the environmental impact of the film archival sector; (2) to assess whether, in the face of the climate crisis, film policies, archival and programming/exhibition practices, infrastructures, and technologies are transitioning towards environmentally sustainable stewardship; (3) to sketch out lessons learned and best practices that might be applied to different institutional and geo-political contexts.

    We welcome contributions from a diverse range of research traditions, including film heritage studies, the humanities, cultural production, cultural policy, media infrastructure studies, and information science. We also welcome contributions from practitioners, cultural managers, policymakers, and the film archival community at large.

    Potential topics include:

    • Energy and resource-efficient labor processes and organizational models in film archiving
    • Cultural and technological policies for sustainable film heritage
    • Gender, class and race implications of new ‘green’ policies and practices
    • Green digital stewardship and curatorship
    • Archival e-waste, obsolescence, and rare earths extraction
    • Power consumption and carbon emissions in film conservation and data preservation
    • Sustainable facilities and buildings in film archival institutions
    • Good (green) practice in traditional film archiving
    • Sustainability and film archiving grassroots innovations in the context of the Global South
    • Promoting sustainability within and outside film heritage institutions
    • The institutional politics of greening film heritage

    Types of Submissions:

    Feature articles: Double-blind peer reviewed research papers, 4,000 – 6,000 words

    Forum pieces: Shorter, less formal pieces, including interviews and “notes from the field” discussing case studies on single institutions or archivists’ own work, such as specific projects or policy initiatives, 2,000 – 3,000 words

    Reviews: reviews of recent books, media (e.g., DVDs, Blu-Rays), conferences, film festivals, and exhibitions, 700 – 1,000 words

    Submission guidelines

    Please send initial proposals and final submissions to special issue co-editors Luca Antoniazzi, Daniela Currò, Simone Venturini at sustainability.tmi@gmail.com.

    Proposals must be submitted by May 5, 2024 for initial consideration and should include: (1) a 250-word abstract, (2) four key words, (3) a 100-word bio of the author(s), (4) the type of paper you would like to write (e.g. feature article). Proposal review will be completed by May 31, 2024. For any questions regarding this CFP, please contact the co-editors prior to the proposal submission deadline.

    Completed manuscripts will be due for editorial review by November 30, 2024. All manuscripts should be submitted as a Microsoft Word email attachment, double-spaced throughout, using 12-point type with 1 -inch margins, following the 17th edition of the Chicago Manual of Style.

    University of Southampton

    The University of Southampton is looking for two Lecturers in Digital Media with research interests in Artificial Intelligence to join the Film department. These posts are available from August 1 2024. Details on the role further below.

    Informal enquiries may be addressed to the Head of Film, Prof. Shelley Cobb (s.cobb@soton.ac.uk). Whilst this post is offered on a full-time basis, hours are not a barrier, and we are interested in individuals wishing to work 0.6 FTE and above. 

    You can apply at jobs.soton.ac.uk. REF 2659424AR https://jobs.soton.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?ref=2659424AR

    The deadline is May 1, 2024 and we expect interviews to take place June 3rd and 4th.

    The University of Southampton is in the top 1% of world universities and is one of the UK’s top 15 research-intensive universities.  Committed to excellence in all we do, we are growing and investing in our research and people to accelerate our remarkable achievements. With particular focus on four key impact themes chosen to build on the university’s existing strengths and to address the most complex societal and environmental challenges: Artificial Intelligence, sustainability and resilience, decarbonisation and engineering better health, this role is integral to our aim of making a lasting difference.  https://uosacademicrecruitment.webrecruit.co.uk/

    The Film Department at Southampton has an excellent reputation for teaching and research. For REF 2021, 95% of our research was judged ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’, and we achieved the highest scores for impact beyond the academy. We have close interdisciplinary links with other members of the School, Faculty and the wider University. Our research-led teaching across film, television and digital media includes modules on history, theory, industry, and cultural studies. 

    The role  

    These posts are REF (Research Excellence Framework) led and require academics with a developing and growing research profile that indicates an

     existing or developing national reputation in their area of expertise, as well as strong potential for participation and/or leadership in grant applications.

    About you  

    You will be capable of engaging with critical questions about the place of artificial intelligence in society from a humanities or social science perspective. Your research agenda will address a larger question of social importance (sustainability, policy/governance, wellbeing or social resilience), and its potential to impact beyond the academy will be an advantage. An ability to teach undergraduate students in modules dealing with digital labour, algorithmic cultures, and automated systems and decision-making processes will be highly regarded, and we are keen to hear from applicants whose teaching and research expertise can productively engage with media industries. The ability of your research to have impact beyond the academy and/or familiarity with computational methods may be advantageous.

    Online/Melbourne (Australia)

    Deadline: May 13, 2024

    We are excited to invite you to the workshop ”Generative AI as a method in social sciences”.  We appreciate help in circulating the call with colleagues working on the topic.

    Workshop descriptions and questions

    In this half-day hybrid workshop, we focus on exploring different ways of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) and how it could be used as a method in social scientific research, and what ethical and practical considerations are implied. 

    We invite researchers working on the topic to submit an abstract (maximum 300 words) by May 13 to miguel.gomezhernandez@monash.edu. The notifications on acceptance will be sent out on May 27. The methodological papers on the use of GenAI in research can present research ideas, ongoing projects, or research findings.

    In exploring the practical examples of methods and methodologies involving GenAI we would expect the proposal to state a clear contribution, for example by accounting for at least one of the following questions:

    • How does the use of GenAI in research methods shift the ways we can research and the qualities of the knowledge we can generate? What are the benefits of this? 
    • What are the ethical considerations of engaging with GenAI as a research method? 
    • How do we unpack what is and is not meaningful to understand in the datasets and classifications when using GenAI as a research method?
    • How should researchers address the political economies of the construction of AI systems when using GenAI as a research method?
    • How might the wider planetary consequences of using GenAI as a research method frame our research practices and methods? 
    • How can critical researchers engage in decolonising GenAI systems when using them as a method? How can we resist the hegemonic and often naturalised narratives of the AI industry and provide alternatives that frame the use of these technologies as a research method?
    • How can GenAI be applied as a research method in research projects whose objective is to generate a radical reimagining of AI's technological development and role in society?

    Workshopping dynamic:  

    We will have two sessions with presentations (10 minutes each) and 20 minutes of Q&A. The second session is dedicated to online presenters. Please prepare your presentations being mindful of the time and the readability of the content. After an afternoon tea and coffee break, in our last session, we will divide the participants in groups and ask them to agree on 3 key insights from the previous presentations and prepare a short showcase arguing for them. This group exercise will enable us to move forward planning future collaborations and discussions.

    Key information

    Date: 27/6, 1.00 pm - 6 pm AEST

      *  Hybrid: online and in Melbourne (Australia) 

      *  Location: Building 97, RMIT University, 106-108 Victoria St, Carlton VIC 3053

      *  CFP Deadline: May 13

    Deadline: November 15, 2024

    Abstracts are invited for a proposed collection on Literary Journalism/Creative Non-Fiction in East-Central Europe. The volume takes as its central concern the current shapes and forms of what is variously called literary journalism, creative non-fiction, creative documentary narrative, or reportage (among other terms) in the region. We have already received preliminary interest from an academic publisher.

    Geographically we define East-Central Europe as the world region that lies between Germany and Russia, south of Scandinavia and north of Greece and Turkey. Many of the countries in the region are now full members of the EU and NATO, some are candidate countries, and all of them share a common heritage of once belonging to the Communist world during the second half of the 20th century.

    We look forward to receiving abstracts for proposed chapters that chronologically focus on the 21st century and contemporary developments, motifs, and trends, but we will also consider contributions that provide a somewhat broader historical context for specific works, authors, national genre genealogies, etc. Chapter proposals focused on the transition era (late 1980s, early 1990s) and the post-socialist era (mid 1990s to mid 2000s) are also welcome. 

    Similar to our geographically flexible definition of the region, we also have a broad conception of who could count as an East-Central European author. We would consider authors, groups of authors, or schools that i) originate in the region, ii) are/were working in the region; iii) originally publish(ed) their work in regional languages, in regional forums (newspapers, magazines, books, blogs, online forums, etc.). Proposals on internationally unknown or little-known authors, traditions, or even national genre genealogies are especially welcome.

    Possible topics include but are not limited to: 

    Ø  Introduction and analysis of the complete oeuvre of a single author

    Ø  Introduction and analysis of the individual work of a single author

    Ø  Genealogy of the genre of literary journalism/creative non-fiction in a national context

    Ø  Comparative study (e.g., various East-Central European authors on the same or similar topics)

    Ø  Travelogs

    Ø  Regional specificities of the genre

    Ø  Critical and/or popular reception of work(s) in a given language community; in the region

    Ø  International reception (critical and/or popular) of works, authors

    Ø  Outstanding works/authors unknown to the English-speaking world

    Ø  Institutional histories

    Ø  Forums of literary journalism/creative non-fiction in a given language/cultural community (country, region, etc.): journals, magazines, publishing houses, cafes, digital space

    Ø  Literary journalism/creative non-fiction in the digital space

    Ø  Interdisciplinary investigations (literary journalism/creative non-fiction and/as social sciences)

    Ø  International connections and contexts (personal, institutional, etc.)

    Ø  21st c. and contemporary illiberal tendencies and literary journalism/creative non-fiction in the region

    Ø  Work methods/practice of individuals and schools in the genre of literary journalism/creative non-fiction

    Ø  21st c. migration and literary journalism/creative non-fiction in the region

    Ø  Reflections on armed conflicts in literary journalism/creative non-fiction

    Ø  Transnational East-Central Europe/ Transnational East-Central European space

    Ø  The (re)construction of (physical and metaphorical) places/spaces that are distinctly East-Central European

    Ø  Interregional reflection on other cultures of the region

    Ø  Motifs in East-Central European literary journalism/creative non-fiction (post-socialist nostalgia; early 1990s wild capitalism; minorities; self-reflection; irony and humour, landscape, etc.)

    Ø  The economy of literary journalism/creative non-fiction in the region

    Only original research will be considered.

    Please submit abstracts of 500 - 600 words no later than April 30, 2024. After reviewing the chapter proposals, we will invite contributions. Deadline for completed chapters will be Nov. 15, 2024.

    Final essays should be between 9,000 and 12,000 words, including notes and references and be argumentative rather than descriptive in approach.

    Authors whose works are included in the volume will be responsible for i) submitting English language proofread chapters and ii) clearing all permissions for the re-use of third-party material.  

    Address abstracts to Dr György Túry turygy@gmail.com and Dr. Rob Alexander ralexander@brocku.ca (editors).

    This book provides an overview of the ways modern communication technologies and information approaches interact with human cognition to make it difficult for people to effectively find and interpret information and what journalists can do about it

    The central argument of the book is that journalists and audiences can no longer afford to pretend that all information is competing on an even playing field and that it is enough for journalists to simply publish “the facts.” Effective Journalism attempts to explain the reality, rather than the ideal, of how people seek and process information, and what journalists and their audiences can do to try to create an informed public in the face of that reality.

    Table of Contents:

    Introduction

    PART I: STRUCTURAL CHALLENGES IN OUR INFORMATION ECOSYSTEM

    1. Information Proliferation

    2. The Attention Economy

    3. Customization and Filters and Bots

    4. The Competitive Advantage of Junk News

    PART II: COGNITIVE AND AFFECTIVE BARRIERS TO PROCESSING INFORMATION

    5. The Dual-Process Model

    6. Motivated Reasoning and Bias

    7. Emotion and Information

    PART III: THE SOLUTIONS

    8. New Movements in Journalism

    9. Strategies to Effectively Debunk False Information

    10. Empathy Cultivation and Building Community

    11. Effective Journalism Practices

    12. Solutions for Tech Companies, Government, and the Public

    Prague, Czech Republic

    Deadline: June 2, 2024

    It is our pleasure to open the call for papers and presentations for the 2024 Prague Media Point Conference, which will take place on November 29, in Prague, Czech Republic.

    Artificial intelligence has come with a power to dramatically shaken our economic, labour, and information systems. For the media sphere, it means yet another drastic turn on its bumpy ride towards any prospect of renewed stability. But unlike many other such turns, AI may provide professionals with a reactive (and creative) potential on a more egalitarian and therefore democratic basis. With the hindsight of coming on to two years of widely accessible AI tools, join Prague Media Point in assessing the impact on and responses of the media sphere and journalism to the two-vowel phenomenon. Be that on the job market, school curricula, newsroom policies, media regulation, journalistic solidarity, and beyond.

    We seek submissions of abstracts, presentations or session proposals that focus on research, projects, and practices in the media that appear to be working and generating impact in the response to AI-induced media volatility (alternatively, which clearly demonstrate a potential to do so). We stress the importance of this AI-volatility link and the example-based approach for the submissions. The topical areas should be related to the following:

    ·         Reforming media/journalism education and media literacy for the new paradigm

    ·         Responses to increasingly precarious and volatile work conditions of journalists

    ·         Freelancing as the new norm

    ·         Building cross-journalism solidarity and new forms of collaboration

    ·         Internal changes at newsrooms – policies, workers, leadership, strategies

    ·         AI and new business models

    ·         Success of hitherto platform and media regulation and what to improve

    ·         Protecting journalism in adversity – standards, volatility, SLAAPs, pluralism, trust

    ·         Harnessing AI for investigative and data journalism

    ·         AI and English-language dominance vs. small-language media – marginalization or expansion?

    ·         Election super-year and beyond: what’s new on the disinfo scene, what’s missing in our responses

    Please submit max 500-word abstracts or proposals + a short bio by June 2, 2024 to: precek@keynote.cz.

    Please use the templates on our webpage, where you can also find more information on registration, deadlines, and fees: https://www.praguemediapoint.com/call-for-abstracts

    The TCS organising group is pleased to announce the third edition of its summer school.

    Applications are now open!

    The spectre of digital capitalism is haunting the world.

    The so-called “AI boom” of the past few years has now taken centre stage in the public debate, scientific research, and in the political agendas of international institutions.

    As the Global North seems to have embarked on a relentless journey towards the digital restructuring of our societies, the digital transition has given rise to new problems regarding the societal and political implications of new technologies.

    Is a new form of digital capitalism emerging from the interplay of digital technology and pre-existing social relations? What is the direct impact of digital technology on human labour? How does this affect our life as a whole? And how is it revolutionising the public sphere? More urgently, what is the role of emancipatory politics in this scenario?

    These are some of the questions that tech enthusiasts and technophobes alike are ill-prepared to address.

    The third edition of the Lake Como Summer School in Critical Theory of Society will gather scholars of renowned reputation to discuss these issues from different perspectives.
