[ecrea] CFP – Visuality 2017: Tourism vs. Urban Heritage in a Creative City, April 20-21, 2017 in Vilnius

ECREA TWG Media & The City invites paper proposals for a special panel 
at the “Visuality 2017: Tourism vs Urban Heritage in a Creative City” 
conference, to be held in Vilnius, Lithuania, on April 20-21, 2017.
The panel, tentatively titled "Smart tourism. Consuming and preserving 
urban heritage and culture in an age of ubiquitous mediation", seeks to 
bring together a range of perspectives and approaches to studying the 
intersection of tourism and cultural heritage in mediated urban 
environments. All aspects of urban media studies, be it smart cities, 
creative urban mediation, visual or multimedia urban culture and 
heritage, the economic or environmental implications of mediated urban 
tourism, or the (often fraught) relationship between tourists and urban 
heritage, are welcome. Interdisciplinary research seeking to creatively 
merge media theory and urban studies approaches is particularly appropriate.

Please send abstracts of up to 500 words accompanied by a short bio of 
each author to mediacity.twg[@]gmail.com by 31st January 2017.

Acceptance will be notified by 15th February 2017.
