Hinterlands of Media and Technology

October 27-28, 2022

Keynote: Professor Wendy Chun, Simon Fraser University.

Format: Hybrid (in person at NYU, with support for remote contributions)

Submission Deadline: May 1st


What is peripheral and yet indispensable to media and technology 
production? What networks and relations may be obscured or revealed if 
we interrogate the constitution of the center? This year, we focus on 
the centrality of the ‘elsewhere’ and the ‘otherwise’ in the production 
of media experiences and media technologies. To consider the many 
historical, geographic, economic, and material dynamics at play, we 
center our inquiry around the notion of the hinterlands, and invite 
contributions to the question: What and where are the hinterlands of 
media and technology?

Applicants are required to send a 300-350 word abstract, bio, and any 
supporting media via this application form
