Ideally the focus of their stories should be on: * their experience as a teacher using distance teaching / learning tools and platforms * how they are working with their students and colleagues to continue providing education despite the crisis? * how they are dealing with these new working conditions? * what guidelines and support they have been given (if any)? We would be grateful if you could share this initiative as widely as possible and help us reach as many teaches as we can. We accept submissions in English, French and Spanish. We have compiled guidelines available on our website bit.ly/teachersvoices / bit.ly/recitsdenseignants Thank you in advance for your support.

The development of big data and algorithms, viewed through the lens of the industrialization of culture, is a central issue in the work carried out within the ?Cultural, educational and creative industries? field at the Laboratoire des Sciences de l?Information et de la Communication (Information and Communication Sciences Laboratory, or LabSIC). This issue pertains to the key strategic focus of this field: digital platforms. Platforms are indeed central to the development of big data technologies. Various studies are currently under way examining these issues, including within the Laboratory of Excellence Industries Culturelles et Cr?ation Artistique (Cultural Industries and Artistic Creation, or Labex ICCA) (Thullas and Wiart, 2019; Ithurbide, 2019; Bouquillion, 2019). In order to extend this research in a direction formerly overlooked, the LabSIC suggests that the Universit? Sorbonne Paris Nord open a doctoral position focusing on the issues raised by big data and algorithmic systems in connection with the industrialization of culture. This subject matter is highly topical. For the last decade or so, big data and algorithmic systems have been presented as a revolution for various economic fields, including culture, and for social and political life as a whole (Cardon, 2015). Experts and promoters of these technologies entertain high hopes. Combined with platforms, such technologies would render former modes of intermediation obsolete. They would provide customers with the goods and services they expect (Drumond, Coutant et Millerand, 2018), including when these expectations are not expressed. As a result, many studies are now looking to assess the reliability of such technologies, especially in terms of cultural content recommendation (Beuscart, Coavoux, Maillard, 2019). They may also generate massive new sources of income. Other research has pointed to the hazards of big data, stressing the dangers of policing cultural uses and informational practices, as well as the threat posed to private life or democracy (Pariser, 2011). The advent of a surveillance society is hence a concern (Mattelart, 2008). While taking these approaches into account and examining how and to what degree they make up a form of storytelling generating self-fulfilling prophecies that influence the development of big data, this PhD project will focus more specifically on the issues pertaining to the industrialization of culture. It could hence focus on the various shifts affecting different levels of the cultural industries. All cultural sectors are affected by the development of such technologies, be it the cultural industries (books, recorded music, cinema and visual media, press and information, video games) or less industrialized fields such as performance arts, fine arts, heritage sites and museums (Bullich, 2016). Leading up to these industries, what are the issues at stake for creation and production? One of the questions brought up touches upon the replacement of human labour by big data and algorithmic systems in terms of content design (Joux and Bassoni, 2018; Bullich, 2018). How do they create and produce the massive amount of ?short? or low-cost content which platform operators require? Furthermore, how do they sort out contents ? especially user-generated content ? to make them legally available on platforms, in keeping with intellectual property (Bullich and Guignard, 2014)? How does the constant renewal of the pool of artistic and creative talents (a key historical constant in the cultural sector) now rely on technologies based on algorithms and mass data production? Who are the actors at the centre of these new forms of renewal beyond social networks such as Facebook, whose role has already been partially explored (Creton, 2018)? For example, how do talent agencies or brands ? among others ? make use of big data? What are the issues at stake for creators, especially in terms of the noncultural skills they must master in order to position themselves within this new economy? In this regard, issues of gender and diversity also come under scrutiny. What strategies do these technologies use to make products and creators more visible, based on the creator?s gender and origin? Another approach for research focusing on content producers may be to analyse how these technologies attract such producers onto platforms. Research focusing on marketing and distribution may explore the consequences of recommendation systems. Do they lead to the dissemination of a wider variety of goods and therefore to broader cultural consumption? The economics of arts and culture have always been characterised by limited dissemination, compared to the variety of goods on offer. Without trying to assess their reliability, do recommendation systems serve as a quality guarantee for consumers? How do they affect competition between different providers? Research projects may also examine how these technologies contribute to the actual creation of added value, and therefore what issues may arise when different actors seek to capture this added value. Do creators and content producers benefit more widely from these systems than those who distribute on ? and sometimes own ? these platforms? In short, do big data technologies strengthen the position of communication industries (Internet professionals, electronics professionals, e-commerce, telecommunications) against cultural industries (Farchy, M?adel and Anciaux, 2017)? Or, conversely, do they provide new opportunities to culture professionals and cultural industries against communication industries? Proposals may also be concerned with public policies and regulation issues. How do these technologies fit in public policies and regulation policies? Industrial actors have always tried to bypass regulatory restrictions; they are quick to point out that, in their view, the policies implemented until now are rendered obsolete by these technologies ? particularly in countries which have established a ?cultural exception? policy, such as France. In the age of big data, these technologies could ?naturally? ensure cultural diversity, including by defending national or local producers. Big data and algorithmic systems therefore raise various questions, as they are now fully incorporated within cultural activities. However, the main focus of the PhD project must be related to issues pertaining to the industrialization of culture and build on existing research in information and communication sciences, as well as studies in the field of culture industry theory ? including those conducted within LabSIC. The proposals must also take into consideration existing studies conducted by ICCA Labex. The PhD thesis will be supervised at LabSIC by Philippe Bouquillion, whose research specialises in the cultural and creative industries. The successful applicant will be included in the LabSIC team and will therefore take part in the scientific activities organised by laboratory members, such as seminars. They will benefit from PhD training and take part in the seminars organised by ICCA Labex (of which LabSIC is a founding member). These activities include ICCA?s ?summer university?. The scientific interactions between PhD students, post-doctoral students and professors/researchers specialising in ICCA?s various areas of research will focus on ongoing ICCA theses, and will be extremely valuable for the student. A workspace will also be made available in the offices allocated to LabSIC in Campus Condorcet. In addition to the quality of its research environment, Campus Condorcet offers further opportunities for scientific interaction, especially with LabSIC partners who are based there. The required documents for the application must be sent as a single PDF file (text font in Arial 11). The file must include: ? a cover letter detailing your career plan ? a resume (two pages maximum) ? a presentation of your thesis project (15,000 characters at most) If the applicant is currently in the process of completing their master?s degree, they must provide a statement from the research supervisor certifying that their degree is advancing well. The student must defend their dissertation before June 24, 2020. Master?s results (grades and final results) must be sent to the Erasme doctoral school?s secretariat by June 26 at noon. Applicants are invited to contact Philippe Bouquillion (p.bouquillion at free.fr); the final application must be sent by May 20 at noon to: kamissoko at univ-paris13.fr. Applicants will be interviewed by the laboratory on May 25 (interviews will take place in the morning). After being selected by the laboratory, the applicant will be interviewed by the Erasme postdoctoral school?s committee on July 1, 2020. Appel ? candidatures pour contrat doctoral fl?ch? Big Data, algorithmes et industrialisation de la culture Le pr?sent appel pour un contrat doctoral porte sur la th?matique des Big Data, des algorithmes et de l?industrialisation de la culture. La question du d?ploiement des Big Data et des algorithmes consid?r?e du point de vue de l?industrialisation de la culture est au coeur des travaux men?s au sein de la th?matique 1 ? Industries culturelles, ?ducatives et cr?atives ? du Laboratoire des sciences de l?information et de la communication (LabSIC). Ce sujet renvoie notamment ? l?axe strat?gique majeur de la th?matique, les plateformes num?riques. Ce sont en effet autour des plateformes que se d?ploient les dispositifs de Big Data. Diverses recherches sont en cours afin d??tudier ces enjeux, en particulier au sein du Laboratoire d?excellence ? Industries culturelles et cr?ation artistiques ? (Labex ICCA) (Thuillas et Wiart, 2019 ; Ithurbide, 2019 ; Bouquillion, 2019). Afin de prolonger ces recherches dans une orientation jusqu?? pr?sent moins ?tudi?e, le LabSIC propose que l?universit? Sorbonne Paris Nord offre un contrat doctoral portant sur les enjeux des dispositifs de Big Data et des algorithmes pour l?industrialisation de la culture. Cette th?matique est d?une actualit? brulante. Depuis une dizaine d?ann?es environ les dispositifs de Big Data et des algorithmes sont pr?sent?s comme une r?volution pour divers domaines d?activit?s ?conomiques, dont la culture, et pour la vie sociale et politique (Cardon, 2015). Les espoirs plac?s par les experts et les promoteurs de ces technologies sont forts. Associ?s aux plateformes, ces dispositifs rendraient obsol?tes les modalit?s ant?rieures d?interm?diation. Ils offriraient aux consommateurs les produits et services qu?ils attendent (Drumond, Coutant et Millerand, 2018), y compris m?me lorsque ces attentes ne sont pas exprim?es. Ainsi, les travaux tentant de mesurer l?efficacit? de ces dispositifs sont nombreux notamment du point de vue de la recommandation des contenus culturels aux consommateurs (Beuscart, Coavoux, Maillard, 2019). De m?me, de nouvelles et consid?rables sources de revenus seraient ainsi d?gag?es. En revanche, d?autres recherches pointent les dangers li?s aux Big Data, pointant aussi bien les menaces ayant trait au contr?le de la consommation culturelle et des pratiques informationnelles que celles portant sur la vie priv?e, ou sur la d?mocratie (Pariser, 2011). L?av?nement d?une soci?t? de surveillance peut alors ?tre redout? (Mattelart ,2008). Tout en int?grant ces perspectives, notamment en ?tudiant dans quelle mesure et comment elles forment un story telling g?n?rant des effets de proph?ties auto-r?alisatrices pesant sur le d?ploiement des Big Data, le projet doctoral se centrera sur les enjeux plus particuliers pour l?industrialisation de la culture. Il pourra ainsi porter sur les modifications ? l?oeuvre aux diff?rents niveaux des fili?res culturelles. Tous les secteurs culturels sont concern?s par le d?ploiement de ces dispositifs, tant les fili?res des industries culturelles (le livre, la musique enregistr?e, le cin?ma et l?audiovisuel, la presse et l?information, les jeux vid?o) que les activit?s moins industrialis?es dont le spectacle vivant, les arts plastiques, le patrimoine et les mus?es (Bullich, 2016). En amont des fili?res, quels sont les enjeux pour la cr?ation et la production ? Par exemple, une des questions qui se posent ici est de savoir si les dispositifs de Big Data et les algorithmes remplacent le travail humain au niveau de la conception des contenus (Joux et Bassoni, 2018 ; Bullich, 2018). Dans quelle mesure permettent-ils de cr?er et produire la quantit? consid?rable de contenus ? courts ? ou ? bas co?ts dont ont besoin les op?rateurs de plateformes ? Egalement, selon quelles modalit?s permettent-ils de trier, notamment en termes de respect de droits de la propri?t? intellectuelle, des contenus, tous sp?cialement des User Generated Content, afin qu?ils soient offerts l?galement sur les plateformes (Bullich et Guignard, 2014) ? De m?me, comment le renouvellement permanent du vivier de talents artistiques et cr?atifs (qui est une constante historique centrale des activit?s culturelles) s?op?re-t-il d?sormais gr?ce ? des dispositifs reposant sur des algorithmes et de la production de donn?es massives ? Quels sont les acteurs au coeur de ces nouvelles formes de renouvellement au-del? des r?seaux sociaux num?riques, tel Facebook, dont le r?le ? cet ?gard a d?j? ?t?, en partie, ?tudi? (Creton, 2018) ? Par exemple, comment les agences de talents ou ?autre exemple- des marques s?emparent-elles des Big Data ? Quels en sont les enjeux pour les cr?ateurs notamment du point de vue des comp?tences non culturelles qu?ils doivent ma?triser afin de se positionner dans cette nouvelle ?conomie ? Se pose ici la th?matique du genre et de la diversit?. Comment ces dispositifs jouent-ils sur les mises en visibilit? des productions et des cr?ateurs, en particulier en fonction du genre ou de l?origine de ces derniers ? Toujours en amont des fili?res, les enjeux de ces dispositifs pour attirer les fournisseurs de contenus sur une plateforme pourront aussi ?tre ?tudi?s. Plus en aval des fili?res, les questionnements au coeur de la recherche pourront ?tre li?s, par exemple, aux enjeux soulev?s par les dispositifs de recommandation. Suscitent-ils une plus large dispersion des consommations culturelles entre un plus grand nombre de titres offerts ? En effet, l?une des constantes de l??conomie culturelle est la faible dispersion des consommations par rapport au nombre de titres diff?rents offerts. Au-del? de leur efficacit?, constituent-ils un gage de qualit? aux yeux des consommateurs et, ainsi, p?sent-ils sur la concurrence entre les diverses offres ? De m?me, les recherches pourront porter sur les valorisations effectives permises par des dispositifs et en particulier sur les enjeux qu?ils pr?sentent dans les luttes pour la captation de la valeur ajout?e. Les acteurs cr?ant ou produisant les oeuvres et contenus en profitent-ils plus que ceux qui diffusent et notamment qui d?tiennent les plateformes ? En somme, est-ce que les Big Data renforcent la position des industries de la communication (acteurs du Web, des mat?riels ?lectroniques, du e-commerce, des t?l?communications) face aux industries culturelles (Farchy, M?adel et Anciaux, 2017) ? Ou alors, inversement, donnent-elles une chance nouvelle aux acteurs de la culture et des industries culturelles face aux industries de la communication ? Les propositions pourront aussi aborder les questions de politiques publiques et de r?gulation. Comment les politiques publiques et les actions de r?gulation int?grent-elles ces dispositifs ? Les acteurs industriels, qui cherchent ? ?chapper aux contraintes r?glementaires, ne manquent pas de souligner que ces dispositifs rendraient (selon eux) obsol?tes les politiques ant?rieurement men?es et tout sp?cialement celles qui comme en France mettent en avant l?exception culturelle. ? l??re des Big data, la diversit? culturelle serait ainsi ? naturellement ? assur?e, y compris la d?fense des productions nationales ou locales. On le comprend, les dispositifs de Big Data et d?algorithmes soul?vent des questions larges, tant ils sont aujourd?hui int?gr?s au sein des activit?s culturelles. Toutefois, l?axe central du projet doctoral devra porter sur les questions d?industrialisation de la culture en particulier telles qu?elles ont ?t? pos?es en sciences de l?information et de la communication et dans les travaux relevant de la th?orie des industries culturelles dont ceux conduits au sein du LABSIC. De m?me, les propositions devront se positionner par rapport aux travaux conduits au sein du Labex ICCA La th?se de doctorat sera encadr?e au sein du LabSIC par Philippe Bouquillion dont les travaux portent sur les industries culturelles et cr?atives. La personne recrut?e sera accueillie au sein du LabSIC et pourra ainsi participer aux activit?s scientifiques organis?es par les membres du laboratoire, notamment les diff?rents s?minaires. Elle pourra ?galement b?n?ficier de la formation doctorale et des s?minaires offerts par le Labex ICCA, dont le LabSIC est membre fondateur. Parmi ces activit?s figure l?universit? d??t? du Labex ICCA. Les ?changes scientifiques, centr?s sur les th?ses en cours au sein du Labex, entre doctorants, post-doctorants et enseignants-chercheurs sp?cialistes des diverses disciplines repr?sent?es au sein du Labex sont particuli?rement formateurs. Par ailleurs, un espace de travail pourra ?tre propos? dans les bureaux du Campus Condorcet allou?s au LabSIC. Outre des facilit?s de travail, le cadre du Campus Condorcet offrira des occasions de partages scientifiques, notamment avec les partenaires du LabSIC qui y sont install?s. Le dossier de candidature, constitu? sous forme d?un fichier pdf unique en Arial 11, contiendra : ? Une lettre de motivation comportant un projet professionnel. ? Un C.V. (maximum deux pages). ? Une pr?sentation du projet de th?se (15.000 signes maximum). Si le master 2 est en cours, il conviendra de joindre une lettre du.de l?encadrant.e garantissant le bon d?roulement du travail ; la soutenance du m?moire devra avoir lieu avant le 24 juin 2020. Les r?sultats du M2 (notes et moyenne) devront ?tre transmises au secr?tariat de l??cole doctorale Erasme au plus tard ? cette m?me date.

It is the third edition of an annotated guide to judicial decisions related to the regulation of communications and copyright in Canada. Over 700 judicial decisions are analyzed and indexed. Includes all cases involving judicial review of the CRTC and the Copyright Board of Canada, up to March 1, 2020. The 950 page book also includes an index to judicial decisions by subject matter under dozens of different headings, as well as the full text of the current communications and copyright statutes and cross references to earlier statutory enactments. As a new feature, the book includes the complete text of the Overview and the Recommendations of the Broadcasting and Telecommunications Legislative Review Panel, as published on January 27, 2020. Normally this book would have been provided to all registrants at the IIC Canada Conference, which had been scheduled to take place in Ottawa on April 20-21, 2020.

We think that the Conference theme might be of interest for some of the members of this mailing list. Thank you in advance. Best regards, Myriam Durocher Postdoctoral fellow, Carleton University (Canada) & University of Sydney (Australia) ****************************************** Dear all, We invite you to submit a paper proposal for the Conference, Food Matters and Materialities: Critical Understandings of Food Cultures, which will be held at Carleton University in Ottawa (Canada) from May 6-7, 2021 (see below). We will follow closely how the Covid-19 situation evolves and will adapt the Conference accordingly, but at this stage we are still working on the organization of an in-person event. Due date for paper proposals: June 10th, 2020. Please share widely! Kindest regards, Myriam Durocher Postdoctoral fellow, Carleton University (Canada) & University of Sydney (Australia) **** Call for papers: Food Matters and Materialities: Critical Understandings of Food Cultures Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada May 6 and 7, 2021 Food cultures are developed and enacted through a web of social and cultural relationships that produce food matters and knowledge, and food-related practices. Works emerging from critical food studies have demonstrated how uneven power relationships take form within these food cultures and create unfair and unequal relationships to and through food (ex., Carolan, 2016; Koc? et al., 2012; Slocum & Saldanha, 2016). These power relationships materialize in particular food matters, or materialities (as inspired by new materialisms), and in the elaboration of a wide range of food-related practices, such as food production and harvesting, circulation, preparation, control, and consumption. Current food cultures are permeated by worries that concern food production and consumption, environment and human health. We conceive that these concerns and issues, and the solutions proposed to address them, are part of (as much as they are the result of) the knowledge and power relationships at play in our current food cultures. Inspired by Stacy Alaimo and Susan J. Hekman?s 2008 call for the consideration of materialities, we contend that social sciences and humanities are crucial to think about and with food matters/materialities so as to engage with positivist sciences such as dietetics, medicine, biology and biochemistry, engineering, etc., all of which produce and address food-related issues and as such, participate in (trans)forming food matters and cultures. We are interested in questioning the emergence of food matters/materialities and the heterogenous networks and power relationships they are embedded in and that they contribute to (re)producing. The Conference?s theme revolves around ?matters?, to reflect our will to address how food matters/materialities emerge in and engage with particular food cultures. Papers could question how food matters/materialities are produced, harvested, controlled, distributed, circulated, wasted, consumed, commercialized, and tested, and how all of these practices are tied to particular food cultures and particular food knowledge. They could also address how food matters/materialities come to matter, and contribute to the creation of as much as they are embedded in power related issues and relationships. For example, papers could work at re-complexifying how we understand the relationships between food, environment and health, so as to question how they are the resulting materialization of unequal power dynamics. Topics may include, but are not limited to: * Food matters/materialities * Food production and consumption * Food and social inequalities * Food cultures and foodways * Food and climate change, and/or biodiversity changes, and/or Anthropocene * Food and environment * Food and sustainability * Food and activism * Critical perspective on food diet(s) and nutrition/nutritionism * Food and bodies * Food and non-human/more-than-human * Food and human/more-than-human geographies * Food and health, and/or food and health/disease risks assessment and management * Food and gender, race, age, class, disability, or approached through intersectionality We will prioritize contributions that explicitely address these topics or issues or any other of interest according to the present call for papers from/with a critical perspective. This critical perspective can work at deconstructing or questioning what is taken-for-granted, left unquestioned. It can also take form through the criticism of the power relationships at play, negotiated by/through/within our food cultures and food matters/materialities. Abstracts of 300-500 words or queries can be submitted by June 10, 2020 to myriamdurocher at cunet.carleton.ca Full papers will be due by April 7, 2021. We will undertake the preparation of a special issue to be published in the Food, Culture & Society Journal out of the Conference.

The COVID-19 pandemic has serious implications for the well-being and academic progress of all graduate students across Canada. Government actions have impacted normal progress through graduate programs. Students no longer have the same access to university services and resources, including libraries, laboratories, and their workspaces on campuses. Many students are unable to continue fieldwork and data collection as a result of government policies and closures. At home, some students do not have access to the internet and the special computer software and equipment required to do their research, and many are facing additional caring responsibilities and financial difficulties in the face of the COVID-19 crisis. It is recognized that the government?s recently announced plan to support students is a major step in the right direction. The Canada Emergency Student Benefit will provide some basic funds for many. Students will be relying on these funds to help them cover the costs of basic living expenses (e.g., groceries, utilities, and rent) but not their tuition. While some students will benefit from the government?s recently announced job creation and extended scholarships and fellowships, these programs will not assist all. Graduate students often seek additional training and employment in the summer months. Unfortunately, many activities, such as professional conferences, have been canceled or postponed, and expected opportunities for progress in post-graduate study are uncertain. All of this, coupled with social isolation and overwhelming stress negatively impacts students? physical and mental wellbeing. In light of these factors, and in keeping with petitions put forward by student unions across the country, the Canadian Communication Association is therefore supporting graduate students by calling on universities to: 1) Suspend summer tuition and fee payments for graduate students normally due in May; 2) Provide automatic program extensions for all students registered in Canadian graduate programs; and 3) Reconsider the financial support they provide to graduate students in light of the day-to-day changes that come with these challenging times. While a one-time bursary that some universities have offered may help in the short-term, there needs to be ongoing discussion of the longer-term impacts this has on graduate student development and research.

La pand?mie COVID-19 a de graves r?percussions sur le bien-?tre et le progr?s acad?mique de tous?tes les ?tudiant?e?s canadien?ne?s. Les mesures prises par le gouvernement affectant le d?roulement habituel des programmes d'?tudes sup?rieures, les ?tudiant.e.s n'ont plus acc?s aux services et ressources universitaires, notamment, aux biblioth?ques, aux laboratoires et ? leurs espaces de travail sur les campus. En raison de ces m?mes politiques gouvernementales, et des fermetures administratives, de nombreux?euses ?tudiant?e?s sont incapables de poursuivre leur travail de recherche sur le terrain, et de mani?re plus g?n?rale, leur collecte de donn?es. Qui plus est, ? la maison, certain?e?s ?tudiant?e?s n'ont acc?s ni ? Internet ni aux logiciels et ?quipements informatiques sp?cialis?s. De fait, beaucoup sont confront??e?s ? des responsabilit?s suppl?mentaires, notamment en mati?re de soins. Il va sans dire que ces diff?rentes contrari?t?s et contraintes, li?es ? la crise COVID-19, entra?nent maintes difficult?s financi?res. Nous reconnaissons que le plan de soutien aux ?tudiant?e?s r?cemment annonc? par le gouvernement est un geste dans la bonne direction. La prestation canadienne d?urgence pour les ?tudiant?e?s contribuera en effet ? fournir des fonds de base. Si les ?tudiant?e?s pourront compter sur ceux-ci pour couvrir certains frais de subsistance?l??picerie, les services publics et le loyer, par exemple?ils ne suffiront cependant pas ? d?frayer les co?ts li?s aux frais de scolarit?. Par ailleurs, l?annonce r?cente d?une cr?ation d'emplois, et de la prolongation des bourses d'?tude et de recherche, profitera ? certain?e?s ?tudiant?e?s, mais pas ? tous?tes. ?tant donn? l?importante diminution des postes d?assistant?e?s de recherche, et des contrats d?enseignement, habituellement disponible l??t?, plusieurs ?tudiant?e?s ne pourront pas b?n?ficier de ces derniers comme ils et elles en avaient l?habitude. ? ceci s?ajoutent les conf?rences professionnelles annul?es, ou report?es, et l?incertitude g?n?rale face aux possibilit?s de progr?s attendus en cycles sup?rieurs. Il va sans dire que tout cela, additionn? ? l'isolement social et l?accablante anxi?t? du quotidien, a un impact n?gatif sur le bien-?tre physique et mental des ?tudiant?e?s. ? la lumi?re de ces facteurs, et conform?ment aux p?titions pr?sent?es par les syndicats ?tudiants pancanadiens, l'Association canadienne de communication se joint aux ?tudiant?e?s des cycles sup?rieurs pour demander aux universit?s de : 1) Suspendre le paiement des frais de scolarit? et les droits d'inscription pour l??t? 2020, ?tant normalement dus en mai, pour les ?tudiant?e? s aux cycles sup?rieurs ; 2) Pr?voir la prolongation automatique des programmes en cours, et ce, pour tous?tes les ?tudiant?e?s inscrit?e?s aux programmes universitaires de troisi?me cycle, au Canada ; et 3) Reconsid?rer le soutien financier qu'ils apportent aux ?tudiant?e?s aux cycles sup?rieurs, ? la lumi?re des changements quasi journaliers qui accompagnent ces temps difficiles. Bien qu'une bourse unique offerte par certaines universit?s puisse ?tre utile ? court terme, il serait souhaitable d?ouvrir des discussions de plus longue haleine concernant les r?percussions de cette situation sur le d?veloppement universitaire et la recherche des ?tudiant?e?s aux cycles sup?rieurs, et ce, dans une perspective ? long terme.

Stay tuned for the release of additional material from my research on media activism. Best wishes from Montreal, Alessandra About the book: Hacked Transmissions is a pioneering exploration of how social movements change across cycles of struggle and alongside technology. Weaving a rich fabric of local and international social movements and media practices, politicized hacking, and independent cultural production, it takes as its entry point a multiyear ethnography of Telestreet, a network of pirate television channels in Italy that combined emerging technologies with the medium of television to challenge the media monopoly of tycoon-turned-prime minister Silvio Berlusconi. Street televisions in Italy represented a unique experiment in combining old and new media to forge grassroots alliances, fight social isolation, and build more resilient communities. Alessandra Renzi digs for the roots of Telestreet in movements of the 1970s and the global activism of the 1990s to trace its transformations in the present work of one of the network?s more active nodes, insu^tv, in Naples. In so doing, she offers a comprehensive account of transnational media activism, with particular attention to the relations among groups and projects, their modes of social reproduction, the contexts giving rise to them, and the technology they adopt?from zines and radios to social media. Hacked Transmissions is also a study in method, providing examples of co-research between activist researchers and social movements, and a theoretical framework that captures the complexities of grassroots politics and the agency of technology. Providing a rare and timely glimpse into a key activist/media project of the twenty-first century, Hacked Transmissions marks a vital contribution to debates in a range of fields, including media and communication studies, anthropology, science and technology studies, social movements studies, sociology, and cultural theory. Reviews: Arising out of the author?s own political engagement in Telestreet, a network of pirate TV channels aiming to challenge Berlusconi?s control over the Italian media, this book?s analysis of social movements in terms of how they change the composition of the neoliberal geopolitical landscape is an intriguing and enabling proposition. It boldly reclaims the studies of political activism, and of leftist political activity in particular, from narratives and feelings of loss, failure, and melancholia. ?Joanna Zylinska, Goldsmiths, University of London With this deep dive into the creative collective spirit of early twenty-first-century media activists, Alessandra Renzi gives us the neglected histories of the activist internet while situating current corporate social media in a genealogy of radical grassroots DIY innovations. Hacked Transmissions is an instant classic for social movement media studies. ?Jack Z. Bratich, author of Conspiracy Panics: Political Rationality and Popular Culture Alessandra Renzi's exquisite account draws on a decade of research and collaboration with Italian media activists and hackers to shake up and put to rest all too simplistic theories around social movements and media. Hacked Transmissions is an intellectual tour de force, sure to hit the reader with delightful waves of methodological, theoretical, and political insights, all relevant across time, place, and case. ?Gabriella Coleman, author of Hacker, Hoaxer, Whistleblower, Spy: The Many Faces of Anonymous - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Alessandra Renzi, PhD Pronouns: She, her, hers Associate Professor for Critical Media Production Department of Communication Studies Concordia University 7141 Sherbrooke Street West, CJ-3.243 Montreal, Quebec, H4B 1R6 Territoire Kanien?keh?:ka non c?d? repurposing-research.org Visit the Boston Women?s March Protest Signs Archive http://artofthemarch.boston New book: Hacked Transmissions https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/books/hacked-transmissions -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Laval ?crire la recherche autrement : regards r?flexifs et pratiques contrast?es VOLUME 39/1 Num?ro th?matique coordonn? par Karelle ARSENAULT (Universit? du Qu?bec ? Montr?al), Karine BELLERIVE (Universit? de Montr?al) et Louis-Claude PAQUIN (Universit? du Qu?bec ? Montr?al) L?objectif de ce num?ro th?matique consiste ? donner un aper?u des recherches francophones en communication dont l??criture, la m?thode ou le questionnement central se revendiquent de pratiques qui n?ont pas forc?ment de nom, sinon celui des ?critures ? cr?atives ? ou ? performatives ?, mais qui remettent en question ou s?att?lent ? d?construire les distinctions entre les diff?rentes formes d??criture institu?es (scientifique, litt?raire, cr?ative). Depuis le 17e si?cle, l??criture est, en effet, appr?hend?e selon deux formes distinctives, voire mutuellement exclusives : litt?raire (fictionnelle, esth?tique, affective) et scientifique (r?f?rentielle, neutre, rationnelle, transparente) (Meier, Merrone et Parchet, 2006; Richardson et St. Pierre, 2005). Suivant le paradigme du post-positivisme (Bonoli, 2006; Lincoln, Lynham et Guba, 2000) et estimant de la sorte repr?senter plus objectivement la r?alit?, les sciences humaines et sociales ? plus particuli?rement, dans le contexte qui nous concerne, les recherches en communication ? ont historiquement adopt? les normes de l??criture dite ? scientifique ?, inspir?e des sciences de la nature. Selon ces normes, le texte est con?u comme ? simple lieu d?amarrage des donn?es recueillies sur le r?el ? (Meier, Merrone et Parchet, 2006 : 3) et est fond? sur une ? neutralit? pr?suppos?e, li?e ? un id?al d?objectivit? et d?ext?riorit? du chercheur ? (Dayer, 2009) : la chercheuse ou le chercheur, par son ?criture ? qui se veut ? neutre ?, ? impersonnelle ?) ? tente ainsi de se distancier, voire de s?extraire de ce qu?elle ou de ce qu?il tente d?exprimer. Si les positions constructivistes ont soulign? le caract?re construit des connaissances d?s les ann?es 1960 (Bonoli, 2006), les crit?res normatifs d??criture scientifique semblent toujours pr?gnants dans le milieu de la recherche, leur respect t?moignant pour plusieurs de la validit? scientifique des travaux (Lather, 1993). ? L?importance des proc?dures, des r?gles, de l?imp?ratif de l?utile, du quantifiable, de l?empirisme et de la raison instrumentale structurent [ainsi] profond?ment la production de la pens?e l?gitime. ? (Spurk, 2006 : 129) L?opposition entre ?criture ? cr?ative ? et ? scientifique ? persiste donc, tout comme l?id?e que ces ?critures ne peuvent coexister dans une d?marche valable (Charmillot, Cifali et Dayer, 2006; Sawchuk et Chapman, 2012). Le regard que l?on pose sur les recherches qui mobilisent des formes d??criture que nous pourrions qualifier de ? transgressives ? pour le milieu, bien que les r?flexions sur ces formes ne datent pas d?hier (Clifford et Marcus, 1986; Geertz, 1973; Richardson, 1994), est au fond celui que l?on posait sur les recherches qualitatives dans les ann?es 1980 : mais est-ce vraiment de la recherche? Chenail rappelait d?ailleurs qu?au d?but de sa carri?re, ses coll?gues qualitativistes et lui devaient continuellement justifier la l?gitimit? de leurs ? epistemologies, theorical foundations, methodologies [and] procedures ? (2008 : 7). Cela dit, les approches postqualitatives (Lather et St. Pierre, 2013), postructuralistes (Lather, 1993), postmodernes (Fortin et Houssa, 2012), mais aussi performatives (Madison et Hamera, 2006), notamment, sont venues plaider pour la reconnaissance de diff?rentes formes de production et d?expression des savoirs. On peut penser aux ?crits de Donna Haraway, Carolyn Ellis, Norman Denzin, Julia Colyar, Hanna Ellen Guttorm, Laurel Richardson, Elizabeth St. Pierre et Patricia Leavy, par exemple. En sciences humaines et sociales toutefois, les travaux faisant appel ? une ?criture qui remet en question les crit?res normatifs de scientificit? apparaissent davantage issus de la litt?rature anglo-saxonne ? du moins jouissent-ils dans ce milieu d?une plus grande visibilit?, d?un rayonnement plus important ? et les r?flexions th?oriques sur le sujet ne semblent par ailleurs que tr?s rarement provenir des ?tudes en communication. Ce num?ro th?matique souhaite ainsi explorer les possibilit?s de r?fl?chir aux normes d??criture afin de montrer comment les ?tudes en communication peuvent s?approprier des pratiques g?n?ralement cantonn?es aux ?tudes litt?raires ainsi qu?aux disciplines artistiques et, de fait, revendiquer une posture plus cr?ative en recherche. L?appel se veut ouvert ? des travaux empiriques autant qu?? des r?flexions th?oriques et propose, en ce sens, deux axes pour guider les autrices et auteurs : celles d?ordres ?pist?mologique, th?orique, ?thique et politique, et celles d?ordre empirique et m?thodologique. 1) R?flexions d?ordres ?pist?mologique, th?orique, ?thique, politique Le premier axe, d?inspiration foucaldienne (Foucault, 1976), renvoie aux questionnements et aux intentions qui sous-tendent l?adoption de pratiques d??criture transgressives ou subversives par rapport aux contraintes normatives de l??criture scientifique en communication. L?id?e consiste notamment ? montrer comment ces pratiques constituent des formes de r?sistance ?pist?mologique face ? l?h?ritage positiviste qui teinte toujours la recherche en sciences humaines et sociales : comment elles s?inscrivent dans les rapports de pouvoir qui modulent la production de connaissances; comment elles ?branlent les ? r?gimes de v?rit? ? qui ont cours dans le monde social et, plus sp?cifiquement, dans le milieu de la recherche scientifique; comment elles n?gocient les imp?ratifs de rigueur scientifique. Les autrices et auteurs sont entre autres invit?s ? t?moigner des tensions et des dilemmes qui les marquent sur le plan ?thique, tant en ce qui concerne l??laboration que la diffusion et la circulation du savoir, de m?me qu?? explorer les enjeux (de genre, de classes, institutionnels, disciplinaires, ?conomiques, politiques, etc.) auxquels ils sont confront?es. La question de la responsabilit? de la chercheuse ou du chercheur et celle de l?inclusion de personnes et de groupes (Alcoff, 1991-1992) dans les processus de recherche pourront, par exemple, ?tre abord?es. En bref, il s?agira de r?fl?chir aux savoirs ? autres ? que les pratiques d??criture transgressives ou subversives par rapport aux contraintes normatives de l??criture scientifique en communication permettent de produire, aux ? devenirs ? (Deleuze, 1997) qu?elles g?n?rent. La place est libre (ou faite) pour accueillir les regards r?flexifs et les r?cits d?engagements. 2) R?flexions d?ordres empirique et m?thodologique Si l??criture sert en effet ? communiquer la recherche, elle se veut aussi potentiellement d?terminante de ce qui surviendra lorsque son geste est pos? consciemment et lorsque la personne qui ?crit sait qu?elle fait par-l? bien plus que simplement aligner des mots. Dans ce contexte, le second axe de ce num?ro th?matique souhaite mettre de l?avant les recherches et les r?flexions d?ordre m?thodologique en communication o? l??criture est mobilis?e comme outil de cr?ation et de transformation, comme lieu d??mergence des id?es. Colyar ?crivait ainsi : ? because writing is generative ?; ? because writing is a reflection of the rhetorical self ?; ? because writing is sense making ?; ? because writing is methodology ? (2009 : 425, 429, 431, 432). Les articles soumis pourront par exemple pr?senter des r?sultats de recherche o? l??criture a ?t? mobilis?e pour produire des ? donn?es ?, o? elle a structur? la m?thode d?enqu?te ou d?analyse, o? elle a servi d?outil de recherche. Ils pourront ?galement examiner l??criture en elle-m?me ou proposer des formes vari?es de texte de recherche, ? non conventionnelles ? : des r?cits autobiographiques, personnels, ? la premi?re personne, des r?cits coconstruits, polyvocaux, des r?cits de pratique, performatifs, des ?crits de fiction, etc. Il s?agira ici d?observer ce qu?apporte la repr?sentation performative lorsqu?elle s?oppose ? la monstration; de s?interroger sur ce que dit l??criture, sur ce qu?elle fait ou peut faire, autrement dit sur ce qui advient lorsque les normes de la scientificit? sont d?construites ou remises en question par l??criture; de voir si le flou est forc?ment mauvais, si la subjectivit? doit n?cessairement s?effacer. La porte des exp?rimentations cr?atives est ici grande ouverte. R?F?RENCES BIBLIOGRAPHIQUES Alcoff, Linda M. (1991-1992), ? The problem of speaking for others ?, Cultural Critique, (20) : 5-32.

Human nature is a capacious concept; one that has been challenged by diverse cultural revolutions in history. Today, as we stand at the crossroads of the human and the digital, technologies force us to reflect on how we view, create, and alter our selves through multiple media. As we enter the age of new media, and algorithms, the interpretations, perceptions, and representations of the self are continuously altered, while our identities become more fragile multiple and fluid. Identities may be founded on varied cultural, biological, and physiological markers, but are also a source and product of social engagement, shared ideas, ideologies, and biases. Identities are both personal and social and are in the eternal process of construction. Our gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, class, disability, religion, nation, and age consistently intersect and interrupt our process of identity construction in media including print, broadcast, and social media. How does the forging of multi-layered, complex identities materialize in traditional and new media? How does the cultural production of the self occur in literature, television, music, blogs, or digital technologies? How does the self break out of its essential boundaries through various practices of writing, and how does it come to be represented? How does it traverse the binaries of gender construction using technology? How does it penetrate barriers towards an intersectional identity building? How are bodies constructed differently in different media? How do masculinity and femininity as concepts of gender identity manifest on platforms? How does individual and collective identity building occur, and how does identity construction enable the use of various media for community development and social activism for communities? Humanities as a discipline is always deeply reflective of the changing world order and is consistently tasked with redefining the notions of the self. We are keen to address this humanities framework in relation to identity politics, representation, and embodiment of the self on various media. To interrogate and investigate the complex relationships between narratives of self-production, and identity formation in media, The Department of Humanities invites abstract submissions for its annual conference on the theme Designing the Self. We invite proposals for papers from a variety of fields and perspectives that engage with issues including, but not limited to: - How does cultural production of the self occur in various forms of media? - How does (dis)embodiment occur on social media? - How do representations of gender, masculinity, or femininity occur in media? - How is intersectional identity constructed, and how does gender intersect with class, race, disability, religion, nation, and age as other factors if identity building? - How can we rethink diversity, intersectionality, and identity politics in the age of technology? - How does identity construction vary in different cultures and historical traditions? Our two-day graduate conference will address these and related topics. It will be held virtually due to the COVID-19 situation. We welcome proposals for 15-minute paper presentations. Those interested are invited to submit an abstract of 250 words to hugsaconf2020 at gmail.com by 30 May 2020. Submissions must include the title of the paper, the author?s name, affiliation, and contact information. Applications must be accompanied by a short biography of 150 words.

I was assuming that doing that kept call data from being stored in rhe US. Can anyone confirm that point? Otherwise, Zoom is what we use for most meetings and pretty much all teaching. I haven't had any issues with it and find it pretty easy to use - although my use of it has been pretty elementary. I've been on Zoom meetings with about 65 people - just set it up to mute mics and keep video off on entry. Speakers can turn on audio and video when they need to. For smaller meetings or classes, keeping video on has not presented a problem, although muting mics is still good to do. We used to use AdobeConnect, which both instructors and students had consistent problems with (mostly disconnections). From what I've heard about Microsoft Teams, it's not the best choice for teaching, which is not what it was designed for. Hope that helps. If anyone has further information about secure storage of Zoom data, passing that along would be greatly appreciated!

The book is available for purchase, and as a free Open Access pdf here . The book, which emerges out a series of conferences and collaborations, examines (through forms of academic and artistic inquiry) the mediation of migration as crisis in Europe, leading up to and following the events of 2015-16. It examines the visual regime, the politics of making, the surveillance regimes, news reportage, curatorial practices, counterforensics, activist interventions that constitute the contested field of representation of migration and migratory bodies. The book includes contributions by Sandro Mezzadra, Allan deSouza, Zineb Sedira, Tyler Morgenstern, Bishnupriya Ghosh, Ian Alan Paul, Charles Heller & Lorenzo Pezzani, Lonnie van Brummelen & Siebren de Haan, Thomas Nail, Thomas Keenan & Sohrab Mohebbi, Banu Cennetoglu, Abdessamad el Montassir, Veronika Zablotsky, Farah Atoui, Krista Lynes, Suzana Milevskaa, Sophia Zachariadi, and LGBTQIA+ Refugees in Greece. We would be grateful if you shared the news in your relevant networks! Krista Lynes, Tyler Morgenstern, and Ian Alan Paul Book description: Moving Images: Mediating Migration as Crisis Krista Lynes, Tyler Morgenstern, Ian Alan Paul (Eds.) In recent years, spectacular images of ruined boats, makeshift border camps, and beaches littered with life vests have done much to consolidate the politics of movement in Europe. Indeed, the mediation of migration as a crisis has worked to shore up various forms of militarized surveillance, humanitarian response, legislative action, and affective investment. Bridging academic inquiry and artistic and activist practice, the essays, documents, and artworks gathered in Moving Images interrogate the mediation of migration and refugeeism in the contemporary European conjuncture, asking how images, discourses, and data are involved in shaping the visions and experience of migration in increasingly global contexts. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You can find it here: https://www.aupress.ca/books/120291-the-art-of-communication-in-a-polarized-world/. I had originally hoped to launch it at Congress, but this will have to do! Kyle Description: People?s minds are hard to change. In North America and elsewhere, communities are fractured along ideological lines as social media and algorithms encourage individuals to seek out others who think like they do and to condemn those that don?t. This social and political polarization has resulted in systemic discrimination and weaponized communication trends such as gaslighting and fake news. In this compelling new book, Kyle Conway confronts the communication challenges of our modern world by navigating the space between opposing perspectives. Conway explores how individuals can come to understand another person?s interpretation of the world and provides the tools for shaping effective arguments capable of altering their perspective. Drawing on the theory of cultural translation and its dimensions of power, meaning, and invention, Conway deepens our understanding of what it means to communicate and opens the door to new approaches to politics and ethics. An essential guide for surviving in our polarized society, this book offers concrete strategies for refining how values and ideas are communicated. With The Art of Communication in a Polarized World, Conway transforms a theoretical concept into a real-world tool for questioning how power shapes the way people talk about things, the meaning they attribute to them, and the ways in which creation or invention can be deployed to turn meaning against power. By operationalizing cultural translation as a critical tool, the book takes a practical approach to an idea that in the scholarship remains all-too-often underworked and untested in concrete settings. This is a beautifully written text, with an engaging style and supported by Conway?s thoughtful explanations and elucidations along the way. Sarah Maitland, author of What Is Cultural Translation? About the Author Kyle Conway is an associate professor of communication at the University of Ottawa. He has published widely on communication and translation, including the books Little Mosque on the Prairie and the Paradoxes of Cultural Translation (2017) and Everyone Says No: Public Service Broadcasting and the Failure of Translation (2011). -- Kyle Conway Professeur agr?g? / Associate professor D?partement de communication / Department of Communication Universit? d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa Pavillon Desmarais, 11e ?tage / Desmarais Building, 11th Floor 55, av.

Message-ID: <5B2D7183-EC57-4923-AE79-CA3D62175353@mast-nemla.org> CFP: Special Issue TOTAL SCREEN: Why Jean Baudrillard, Once Again? Guest editors: Katharina Niemeyer (University of Qu?bec in Montr?al) Magali Uhl (University of Qu?bec in Montr?al) MAST is an online, open-access, and double-blind peer-reviewed journal featuring interdisciplinary scholarship in the domain of media studies. Deadline for full proposals: 15th September 2020 (for publication in May 2021). What place does or could Jean Baudrillard occupy in media studies, visual studies, and art theory today? How does his work?as both a philosopher and a vernacular photographer?continue to influence visual artists and other forms of media art? How can we confront his radical views with feminist, intersectional, queer, postcolonial, and other critical approaches? This special issue of MAST journal seeks to answer and further explore these questions through proposals from arts practitioners and theorists. Provocative, eclectic, ironic, playful, and anticipatory, Baudrillard?s thinking propels both the image and photography?and that which evades them?into a dimension that inspires, questions, amazes, and disturbs. Almost thirty years after 1991, when he argued that ?the Gulf War did not take place? (Baudrillard, 1995) in an attempt to demonstrate the extent to which our society of images has deviated from an already-vanished reality; almost twenty years after 9/11, when he referred to the destruction of the Twin Towers on live television as a symbiotic apex between experience and its image; his conception of the image, of its forms, and of its plasticity remain resolutely contemporary and open to criticism. More powerful than its own presence in a reality that it renders less and less real while confined to an endless media feedback loop, the image has become an event and the event an image. The early philosopher?s writings certainly illustrate the force of his visionary view of a society, he has not lived in since his death in 2007, but whose vision has nevertheless encompassed the dominance of simulacra, transparency, and hyperreality, the injunction of computer code, the virality of communications, and the implementation of artificial intelligence?each of which are profound present-day issues that permeate his work from beginning to end. If Baudrillard?s philosophy was supposed to have become irrelevant by now (Baudrillard, 2009), it nevertheless persists and does not cease to resurface within the ideas of the critics of our present time (Smith et al., 2017). Rereading his work, it is remarkable that ?these texts never cease to amaze by their extraordinary ?topicality?? (Latouche, 2019, p. 18), especially with regard to the supremacy of images in a society that has become a total screen (?cran total, Baudrillard, 2007). >From animated gifs of design objects to selfies in front of architectural works, from visual shots captured by drones to Instagram?s ?stories? or ?snapshots? of a reinvented everyday life, to all the forms of visual recognition made possible by artificial intelligence, imagery is at the core of today?s social experience (Peraica, 2019; Mirzoeff, 1999). Flowing through our lives, cutting across from one end to the other, images merge and interact with one another (Bolt, 2004; Gumbrecht, 2004; Manovich, 2001). However, the behavior of images concerns their auratic force, too (Alexander et al., 2012), in other words, their capacity to reveal a social situation, a cultural prism, or a singular experience as well as their agency as artifacts in public spheres. This raises questions about the role of images in relation to both the possibilities of our emancipation and of our restriction, (self-)surveillance, and manipulation. In the current context of COVID-19, it seems premature to concentrate on the pandemic as a central theme of this special issue, however, it would be equally inadequate to ignore it in light of Baudrillard?s systematic and sometimes debatable reflections on virality and its relationship to disaster. In fact, he perceived the individual as ?the chosen terrain for viruses and viral diseases, just as computers become the chosen terrain for electronic viruses (?) For viruses resist and proliferate as soon as they have free space? (Baudrillard, 1997, p. 11). Moreover, it is crucial to take a critical look at the screen, which, in the early spring of 2020, has become our (almost) only communicative interface with the world: national and international news, shopping, domestic and social activities, sports and online games, as well as the consumption of fiction on various platforms, to name a few examples. This is especially relevant considering how much we invest our professional, family, and social lives in the screen?including our most intimate moments?but also, and most importantly for this special issue, our creative moments and artwork. Situated between the dual significance of visibility?to make visible/ accessible and to show/ exhibit, today, the image is the source of many paradoxes, thus inviting numerous interpretations for artists and media- and art-theory scholars alike. This special issue proposes a critical investigation of Baudrillard?s provocative theoretical work and beyond (Lovejoy, 2004; Toffoletti, 2011 and 2014). We especially welcome proposals that undertake the critical ?Baudrillard adventure? by focusing on visuality?pictures, (moving-) images, and photographs. Topics of interest in this context may include but are not limited to: Baudrillard, media, visual, and/or art theory today Baudrillard in discussion with feminist, queer, intersectional, and postcolonial approaches Hyperreality and virality in media theory, visual studies, and/or visual arts Visual implosion and seduction Simulation and singularity Transparency and opacity Loops, memes, and gifs We encourage submissions in the below categories: Full papers (4000-6000 words) Short essays (1000-2000 words) Video articles (5-10 min) Practice-based studies (a media artwork/project accompanied by a 1000-2000 words essay) The last category (practice-based studies) demonstrates that a creative media artwork/project is the basis of developing research and making a contribution to knowledge in the context of this issue?s theme. Practiced-based studies may include (but are not limited to): digital arts, media installations, web-based arts, screen-based arts, VR/AR, and hybrid media projects. Practice-based studies must also accompany an essay (1000-2000 words) and are assessed for publication on how well they speak to the issue?s theme. We strongly recommend including images (up to three) and/or link(s) to video/audio/web in the submissions in this category. Essays must be unpublished in order to be considered, and the provided materials must be copyright cleared.

Special issue of TOPIA: Canadian Journal of Cultural Studies Issue 44, Summer 2021 Edited by: Enda Brophy, Max Haiven and Benjamin Anderson UPDATE: The editors of this special issue are re-issuing this call with an extended timeline and a special invitation for contributions that highlight these thematics in the wake of the ongoing global pandemic and concomitant financial crisis. All indicators point to the intensification of the trend towards greater convergence between financial and technological sectors of capitalist accumulation in the months and years ahead, a deeply worrying prospect given the unprecedented reach of emergency measures, powers and forms of disaster-capitalist deregulation being embraced by governments around the world in response to the crisis. From the data-bonanza presented by the development of contact-tracing apps to the keen interest many governments are showing for new forms of money and transaction, we are in a moment of unparalleled change. As such, the editors especially encourage contributions that reflect on past trends and current tendencies to equip activists, scholars, policy-makers and the public to demand different common futures. We hope to publish a special issue with a plurality of voices and perspectives expressed in shorter interventions, interviews and roundtables, though traditional long-form articles are also very welcome. For decades under neoliberalism the circuits of finance have been converging with those of information and communication technologies (ICTs). High-tech and big money are leading poles of capitalist accumulation as they restructure or eliminate other industries, capture and transform a vast gamut of social relations, and generate frenetic activity in the industrial expanse between them?a speculative and unfettered field of development known as ?fintech.? The rise of techno-finance in the first two decades of the twenty-first century presents a paradox. On the one hand, the commanding heights of the financialized, digital economy have come crashing down to earth at regular intervals. The dotcom bubble of 2000, the global financial crisis of 2007/2008, and the widespread revelations regarding surveillance capitalists? models of data capture in the 2010s have discredited these sectors and their elites. Techno-utopian schemes of ?financial inclusion? and the promises of a digitally networked public sphere have increasingly appeared morally, politically and economically dubious, if not bankrupt, when considered next to the social disintegration such models have wreaked on a wide scale. But if the history of capitalism has taught us anything, it is that crises are hardly a barrier to new frontiers of accumulation. Across the vast industrial intersection of finance and tech, the forging of business plans, technologies, and dreams has been white hot. Mobile lending apps have expanded their reach into the global south, crypto-currency capitalists plan tax-free societies run on blockchain principles, platform companies like Facebook dream up digital currencies beyond state control, and the latest ?development? schemes of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank (2018) rely on the possibilities of fintech. If the myth that better integration into capitalist markets through the spread of ICTs will ameliorate the ills of that system increasingly rings hollow (see Bernards 2019, Gabor and Brooks 2017, Mader 2016, Manyika 2016), it still proves more than functional in raising capital, marshalling labour, and providing the ideological accelerant for new extractive schemes. The fields of finance and tech converge in the notion of credit. On the one hand, the financial apparatus is a capitalist system for producing and allocating credit, a system that, today, as Randy Martin (2007) observed, increasingly divides global populations into the celebrated (and creditworthy) ?risk-takers? and the discreditable and abject ?at risk? populations whose ?financial illiteracy? must be policed and contained (see also Haiven 2017). On the other, the notion of ?credits? and ?accounts? has been borrowed from finance within the infrastructure by which corporate technologies integrate ?users? into their digital empires. Here, as Nick Dyer-Witheford (2015) illustrates, labour and life are increasingly disciplined and shaped by one?s accounts within the hyper-securitized micro-economies of a handful of leading ICT corporations. In both cases, the seemingly neutral, benign, or technocratic notion of credit, its actuarial banality, serves to hide or normalize the neocolonial forms of power and violence at work in our financialized society of control. Each form of credit actualizes our enrollment (and the expropriation of our data) within what Shoshana Zuboff (2019) calls ?behavioural futures markets.? Moreover, with the integration of the spheres of finance and digital technology we are witnessing the proliferation of modes of what Jackie Wang (2018) calls ?exclusion through financial inclusion? which, as Paula Chakravartty and Denise Ferreira da Silva (2012) note, aim to integrate the wretched of the earth into a sabotaged system (see also Taylor 2019). These and other authors note that we must see this as a continuation of the means by which capitalism has, throughout its history, seen the poor, the colonized and the racialized as vectors for new experiments in financial technology, debt and economic power (Kish and Leroy 2015, Roy 2012). Meanwhile, as Veronica Gago (2015) and Silvia Federici (2018) note, the expansion of digitalized global debt, both national and personal, represents a capitalist seizure of the sphere of social reproduction with particularly disastrous impacts on women. We propose the theme of ?Zero Credit? to designate two overlapping conditions which are the starting point of this collection?s focus. First, the familiar situation of having run out of credit, of being cast out from, yet still enmeshed within, the digital circuits of tech/finance. Second, we refer to the emergent situation of the collective calling in of the ?debts? of global capitalism in the form of people?s movement against and beyond financialization and the growing demand for radical alternatives to the global financial order: our credit may be at zero but so is our patience. As Frances Negron-Muntaner (P?rez-Rosario 2018) notes, we are in an era marked by the power of unpayable debts, as shown by the imposition of financially-led disaster capitalism in Puerto Rico (see also Klein 2018). The increasingly common condition of perpetual insolvency, of permanent bankruptcy, has become the staging ground for a new moment of anti-capitalist politics (Berardi 2012). What are the possibilities of what Peggy Kamuf (2007) called ?accounterability? in the present moment? What are the methods for countering the dominant measurements of accounts or of recounting value, life, the economy or the possibilities of technology otherwise? For this special issue of TOPIA: Canadian Journal of Cultural Studies, we seek to map the convergence of ICTs and the debt/finance system, as well as to bring in to view the forces counteracting and organizing alternatives the dreams of fintech. The editors welcome short proposals (250-300 words) for contributions interrogating the intersections of (1) emergent digital frameworks of power; (2) debt regimes, new and old; and (3) the collective resistance of social movements. We are particularly interested in critical examinations of interventions with the following themes: * Social media scoring and credit-worthiness * The end of the cryptodream? * Algorithmic discipline: real and virtual * ?Third world debts? in a digital age * Racialized subjects of risk * Subjectivities of default * Digital currencies from below * Reparations in a digital context * Genealogies of digital technology in debt * Colonial debt/colonial technology * (Technologies of) mobility and debt * Social credit and governmental debt/credit systems * Credit and social power * Utopian/Dystopian credit economies * Credit and social reproduction * Credit, belief, faith * Tax havens and digital offshore * History of credit ratings * Migration and debt * Policy proposals and their dangers * The temporal debts of extraction The publication timeline is as follows: DEADLINES AND SUBMISSIONS Deadline for abstracts: June 15, 2020 Decision notification: July 3, 2020 First drafts due: September 14, 2020 Revisions due: January 15, 2021 Anticipated publication date: Summer 2021 Please submit by the following online form: https://forms.gle/VRooHspiRx1nLvXz5 Works cited * ?The Bali Fintech Agenda?: Chapeau Paper.?

The book is available in print and e-book formats and will be available for short-term rental on VitalSource starting in the fall. [book cover: Canadian Communication Policy and Law] ?At last, a book on Canadian communication policy that thoroughly integrates critical theory including political economy, gender, and race-based approaches, as well as Indigenous and postcolonial analysis. Bannerman?s crystal-clear prose and exhaustive research provide readers with the definitive guide to who benefits from public policy in a digital age.? ?Vincent Mosco, Queen?s University, Author of The Smart City in a Digital World ?With its robust attention to critical race theory and intersectionality, Bannerman?s book enriches scholarship in Canadian communication policy and law. The book tackles some of the most pressing communication and digital policy issues today, highlighting in particular the imbrication of power and politics and the importance of upholding the often-vexed nature of the public interest.? ?Leslie Regan Shade, Professor, Faculty of Information, University of Toronto "This exciting and innovative new text from Sara Bannerman brings a diverse range of critical perspectives to bear on enduring issues and pressing concerns in communications policy, law, and regulation in the 21st Century. The scope is as ambitious as it is impressive. At each step of the way, Bannerman deftly guides readers through the hotly contested issues that will continue to shape the terrain of intellectual property, freedom of expression, privacy and data protection, telecommunications, broadcasting, and internet regulation for years to come.? ?Dwayne Winseck, Professor, School of Journalism and Communication, Carleton University ?This work is immensely valuable in many respects?it offers an engaging introduction to a wide range of theoretical approaches that are made accessible through clear prose and compelling real-world examples. Unlike many introductory texts, which present perspectives on law and policy in a neutral fashion, this work offers a vigorous critique of Canada?s legal and regulatory communications framework?a regime that, while neutral in its face, serves to reinforce inequity and preserve the status quo.? ?Lisa Taylor, Associate Professor, School of Journalism, Ryerson University ?Sara Bannerman offers a unique primer on a range of Canadian policy and legal issues pertaining to media and communications; its expansive scope is unparalleled. What especially stands out about this book is its attention to the underlying power structures that shape policy and law, as well as its innovative approach to guiding readers through the process of legal research. This text is essential for anyone interested in how Canadian media and communications are shaped by law and policy.? ?Tamara Shepherd, Communication, Media and Film, University of Calgary ?Canada?s rapidly-changing communications system requires thoughtful analysis of both long-standing and emergent issues, from intellectual property law to telecommunications policy. Synthesizing decades of research and legal precedent, Dr. Bannerman unpacks core debates from various theoretical and normative standpoints, paying close attention to power relations and systemic bias, and offering readers a framework to engage in policy research. This is a valuable resource that connects communications policies with the lived experiences of the diverse individuals and groups who make up Canadian society.? ?Rob McMahon, Communications and Technology, University of Alberta Summary This essential resource examines the central issues in Canadian communication policy and law, including freedom of expression, censorship, broadcasting policy, telecommunications policy, internet regulation, defamation, privacy, government surveillance, intellectual property, and more. Taking a critical stance, Sara Bannerman draws attention to unequal power structures by asking the question, whom does Canadian communication policy and law serve? The in-depth discussions consider fundamental theories for analyzing law and policy issues, such as pluralist, libertarian, critical political economy, feminist, queer, critical race, critical disability, postcolonial, and intersectional theories. Accessibly written and featuring further readings, a glossary, and a chapter on legal and policy research and citation, this book provides a superb introduction to the field for students in media studies and communications programs, while also synthesizing advanced critical analysis of key problems in Canadian communication policy and law.

Lindsay's film crew shadowed CBC national investigative journalist Harvey Cashore, Brampton Guardian reporter Radhika Panjwani, Toronto Star City Hall reporter Jennifer Pagliaro, and Hamilton crowd-funded indie reporter Joey Coleman, as they set out to tell the stories of their communities and our world. The resulting cinema-verit? documentary shows, without commentary, how and why journalists do their jobs in a period of?well, as a communications scholar, you can finish that sentence as well as I can. The movie was inspired by work for the SSHRC-funded Canadian Worlds of Journalism Study (CWJS). We interviewed journalists across Canada about their ideas and practices, and compared their responses with those of news workers in 66 other countries and reported our findings to the CCA, in the Canadian Journal of Political Science, and elsewhere. To spur discussion of journalism and news production among students, the CWJS is also releasing Journalists At Work: Thinking About News in the Age of Post-Truth, a set of four customizable lesson plans for use in media-related teaching. The teaching materials include presentation slides, discussion questions, quizzes, readings, and movie scenes. Topics include fake news, news deserts, social media, and what could replace traditional news platforms and approaches. For sample teaching materials and other details, please fill in the request form or simply reply to this email. There is no charge for viewing or using the materials and you are free to adapt them in any way you choose, except for the movie clips. To view the movie, please book a pay-what-you-can ticket at AfterFact.ca. The educators' preview period is June 16th to 30th. To inquire about an educational licence to screen the full movie, please write to Lindsay Fitzgerald or ask your library contact to do so. Please let me know what you think of all this!

The long-standing assumption of technology and developmental models as civilizational gifts from whites to non-whites, and from the West to the non-West, takes new forms in Media Studies, which has its own disavowed history of racism and bias. In media studies, different subcultures of scholarship proliferate but often without interacting with each other, and without interrogating the overarching political history of the field. The intensive promotion of mass and new media as technologies of freedom has its moment of reckoning today, when citizens? recordings of police violence encounters a president who rejects any criticism and opposition as ?fake news.? The Cold War equation of media with freedom presumed a liberal order where white identity politics/white supremacy did not have to name itself. Interrogating assumptions of racial privilege embedded in structures of media use also entails revisiting the limits of Media Studies, a post WW2 discipline that has fragmented into a multi-paradigm field without coming to terms with its own fraught history. For this to happen, we need to open ourselves and our histories up to critique, and ensure that everyone, from the Global South to the Global North, can be a subject of media studies rather than an object.

URL: From MirandaBrady at cunet.carleton.ca Fri Jun 19 12:30:23 2020 From: MirandaBrady at cunet.carleton.ca (Miranda Brady) Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2020 18:30:23 +0000 Subject: [acc-cca-l] Autism_Media_Social Justice: CFP Studies in Social Justice Special Issue Message-ID: [?EXTERNAL] Autism_Media_Social Justice Call for Abstracts for a Special Issue in Studies in Social Justice In recent years, representations of autism in popular culture have proliferated. From Hollywood action thrillers like The Accountant to Netflix dramadies like Atypical, there are now more overt representations of autism than ever before. While some might celebrate the boon of autistic representations in the media and their impact on autistic individuals who may connect with and see political potential in them, this growth raises a number of questions related to social justice. Alongside this growth, neuro-atypical communities have mobilized various forms of media to challenge dominant narratives and representations of autistic life and culture (Kapp, 2020; Davidson and Orsini, 2013). Moreover, disability studies and critical autism studies scholars, autistic self-advocates, and disability justice activists have highlighted how autism discourses frequently serve to reinscribe and naturalize medicalization and violence against autistic people and communities (McGuire, 2016; ASAN, 2018b; Yergeau, 2018). Pushing back against biomedical and deficit-based discourses of autism, self-advocates instead forward the disability rights mantra of ?nothing about us without us? and seek to challenge the production norms that rarely include autistic people. Centering people on the spectrum can help to ?re-story? autism as a welcome difference that does not require cure or normalization (Douglas et al., 2019, p. 2; Gillespie-Lynch et al., 2017) where autistic persons ?take a more active paid role in the production of autism knowledge? (Woods et al., 2018, p. 978; Waltz, 2014). But does such accessibility necessarily challenge the structures of ableism? This special issue seeks to explore these and other questions related to media and autism. It traces the relationships of power that construct autism in particular ways, challenges ableist approaches, and builds emancipatory autistic and disability culture toward more socially just futures. We invite abstracts for academic papers, creative works, and dispatches that address the intersections of autism, media, and social justice. We invite submissions that do not employ deficit models of autism. While the special issue is academic in nature, we also encourage creative papers, dispatches, and interventions like drawings, poetry, vlogs, and links to performances. Abstracts outlining proposed works should be emailed to us at the address provided below in a word document by 30 July 2020. Please visit the Submission Preparation Checklistat Studies in Social Justice for more information about article and creative intervention information. We will confirm receipt of abstracts and let authors know whether they fit the scope of the special issue within two weeks. If abstracts are accepted, complete works are due by 31 December 2020. Full paper acceptance depends on passing a peer review process. Full scholarly papers will be 6,000-8,000 words; dispatches, less than 4,000 words; and creative interventions will vary in format. Below we have provided 11 potential questions for you to engage with, but we invite other topics to be explored. Abstracts (due 30 July 2020) should include: 1. Author?s (or authors?) Name, Rank and Affiliation if applicable, and short biography (50-100 words) 2. Title and publication type (paper and/or creative intervention) 3. 300-400 word abstract o Scholarly papers and dispatches: Abstracts should outline the paper?s main argument or question being addressed, and if appropriate, methodological or analytical approach, theoretical framework, and how it relates to existing literature and makes a unique contribution. o Creative papers and interventions: Abstracts should outline the idea being explored, creative process, and the impact the creative paper or intervention may have on audiences. o If comfortable and wishing to do so, authors may also note whether and how their subject positions inform their papers, dispatches, and creative interventions. We welcome contributions from autistic/neurodiverse/neuro-atypical persons. Please email abstracts and questions to: margaretjansevanrens at cmail.carleton.caby 30 July 2020. Coeditors for this special issue are: * Miranda J. Brady, Associate Professor, School of Journalism and Communication, Carleton University * Kelly Fritsch, Assistant Professor, Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Carleton University * Margaret Janse van Rensberg, doctoral student, Social Work, Carleton University * Kennedy Laborde Ryan, M.A. student, Communication Studies, Carleton University Potential questions for engagement: 1. What role do media play in advancing or detracting from social justice for autistic individuals? 2. What constitutes better media representation for autistic individuals and disability communities? 3. What is the relationship between media, autism, and intersectional social justice issues such as race and gender identity? 4. How can media representation be used to denaturalize violence against autistic people and focus on the needs of autistic communities? 5. How are mediated autistic creativity and self-expression important for social justice? 6. What are the barriers to (mediated) self-representation? 7. What are the needs of autistic audiences? 8. What are best practices for accessibility for autistic people in production? 9. How can we read and re-read characters as autistic? Why and how is this productive for social justice? 10. Which characters and media texts do autistic individuals most identify with or find pleasure in and why? 11. How can we explore the nuanced and complicated relationships between social media and autistic self-advocacy?
