[Commlist] Online Conference Cultura Social Media 2020

We are pleased to invite you to the Cultura Social Media 2020 
Conference: Emerging Technologies to face uncertain futures, which will 
take place online on November 16th, 17th and 18th 2020.

Digital emergent technologies -from social media, apps and artificial 
intelligence- bring up new possibilities for communication. At the same 
time, they question paradigms and concepts which make us rethink our 
forms of imagining and inhabiting the world. Being a citizen is a 
concept defied by new forms of political participation, our connection 
with public issues and the spreading of false information. In addition, 
social robots and artificial intelligence emerge as new communicative 
agents which open up new possibilities and challenges in different 
areas, such as education, the labour market and mental health. At the 
same time, the creation of content by millions of users in the world, 
has defied industries and knowledge, generating new markets, cultures 
and uncertain work dynamics.

Through academic presentations in an online format -given the global 
sanitary contingency- the Social Media ‘20 Conference will deal with the 
role that these emerging technologies play in our social and economic 
lives, within a context of uncertain futures.

In order to register you need to fill in the form available on the 
website:

Depending on the panels, it will be possible to ask questions to the 
speakers in Spanish and/or English.
