Fri Dec 04 11:44:16 GMT 2015





We are happy to inform you about the publication of the special issue on
‘Mediatized cultural activism’ in the open-access journal /Conjunctions:
Transdisciplinary Journal of Cultural Participation. /The articles are
available at w
<http://www.conjunctions-tjcp.com/>ww.conjunctions-tjcp.com
<http://www.conjunctions-tjcp.com/>.

The articles in the issue investigate the many ways in which
participatory cultural activism, in recent years, has become mediatized
and entangled with digital networks. Though a diverse range of case
studies the articles engage with the ways in which digital and networked
culture, technological apparatuses, and database logics facilitate,
challenge, transform, and mediatize the ways in which people participate
in and construe activism. The articles investigate how digital networks
redesign the modalities of activist participation and ask how we can
understand the relation between media, culture, social movements, and
activist participatory practices.

The issue includes the articles:
- J.K. Gibson-Graham: *Ethical Economic and Ecological Engagements in
Real(ity) Time: Experiments with Living Differently in the Anthropocene’.
- Balca Arda: ‘The Constructions of a New Sociality through Social
Media: The Case of the Gezi Uprising in Turkey’
- Inka Salovaara: ‘#Je suis Charlie: Networks, Affects and Distributed
Agency of Media Assemblage’
- Kaouthar Darmoni and Tamara Witschge: ‘Counterpublics in the age of
mediatisation: Local responses to Femen in the Arab world’
- Rikke Alberg Peters: ‘Become Immortal! Mediatization and mediation
processes of extreme right protest’
- Christoph Brunner: ‘Affective politics of Sensation: Anonymity and the
Transtemporal Activism in Argentina’
- Camilla Møhring Reestorff: ‘Mediatizing Shame: Posthumanitarianism and

Fabian and Camilla Møhring Reestorff on ‘Mediatization and the
