[ecrea] ICA in Fukuoka: Mobile Communication Pre-Conference on June 8, 2016

*International Communication Association*
*Mobile Communication Pre-Conference*
Theme: "The All Powerful Mobile"
Where: Fukuoka Art Museum
Wednesday, June 8, 2016

Submission deadline: December 15, 2015.

The ICA Mobile Pre-Conference is a day-long interdisciplinary gathering
of scholars, researchers, and practitioners who are interested in mobile
communication, mobile media, and mobility at large. This will be the
13th Annual Meeting of ICA Mobile. This year's pre-conference will take
place on Wed June 8 at the Fukuoka Art Museum.

This year, the mobile preconference will be organized in the form of
Blue Sky workshops. In these workshops, scholars can present, learn and
discuss their latest ideas, research and skills around a limited number
of themes related to mobile communication and mobile media. We hope the
workshops provide a forum where graduate students and new faculty can
interact with more experienced mobile researchers, thereby cultivating a
supportive and integrated community of mobile scholars. Ideas presented
at the mobile pre-conference have consistently lead to publication in
peer-reviewed journals and influenced the theoretical foundation of
mobile research.

In addition to the Blue Sky workshops, this year’s pre-conference
features an opening keynote and a conference lunch and dinner where
scholars will interact in an informal and social atmosphere.

This year's pre-conference organizing committee includes: Colin Agur
(chair), Shin Mizukoshi (vice-chair), Mariek Vanden Abeele (vice-chair),
Mamiko Hayashida, Katie Cumiskey, Maxwell Foxman and Veronika Karnowski.

15, 2015), please visit:
