[ecrea] 2nd call for papers: Communication, Art, Media

Tue May 02 19:24:10 GMT 2017




COMMUNICATION, ART, MEDIA: PROBING IMPACTS AND INTERSECTIONS

Lisbon, October 13-15, 2017
Workshop organised by the Philosophy of Communication section of ECREA
Lusófona University, Lisbon
In this workshop, the Philosophy of Communication section of the European Communication Research and Education Association (ECREA) invites communication scholars, philosophers, and artists to reflect on, develop, and debate the relationship between the arts, the aesthetic, and communication. We invite proposals that probe influences and tensions between these spheres from a variety of philosophical and theoretical perspectives. We seek papers that explore the contributions of specific philosophers to the question at hand as well as discussions of the unique communicative characteristics of individual art forms and works. We are looking for presentations that deal with the intersection of communication and art in contemporary social life – from the proliferation of visual culture and developments in the cultural industries to the aestheticization of politics and everyday life – as well as contributions that address the implications of contemporary media aesthetics on the theorizing of communication itself. Examinations of historical transformations of the relationship between varying modes of communication and the arts are also most welcome. Confirmed keynote speakers: David Hesmondhalgh (University of Leeds) and Jussi Parikka (Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton) Abstracts of 300-400 words should be submitted by 15th of May 2017, along with a short biography note (including at least name, current affiliation, and position), at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ecreaphil2017 Notifications of acceptance will be sent by the end of May, 2017
