[Commlist] CFP: SPM2019: Media, Message, and Geopolitics; 21st International Conference of the Society for Phenomenology and Media (SPM)

Society for Phenomenology and Media (SPM) invites proposals for its 21st 
International Conference: What We Say about Media and What That Says 
about Us: Medium, Its Message, and Geopolitics.

Dr. Rosemary Rizo-Patrón de Lerner of Pontificia Universidad Católica 
del Perú (PUCP) will deliver the keynote address.

The conference will take place from March 13th to March 15th, 2019 in 
Puebla, Mexico. It is sponsored by the School of Plastic and Audiovisual 
Arts (ARPA) at the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (BUAP).

Abstracts are due January 31st, 2019. Please submit abstracts (200 
words) or proposals for 3-person panels (250 words) to EasyChair at 
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=spm2019.

SPM invites papers on all aspects of media. The only necessary condition 
is that the paper be concerned with media, either in practice or theory.

Since 1999, conference papers have dealt with the Internet, artificial 
intelligence, augmented reality, medieval manuscripts and print, radio 
and sound, dance, stage drama, TV, film, painting, sequential art 
(comix), social/anti-social media, fake news, etc.

Theoretical papers have focused on visualization, mediations of 
inter/subjectivity, empathy, ethics, media dis/embodiment, and the 
specifics of individual media. Many papers raised questions in the 
philosophy of technology, epistemology, media ontology, or aesthetics. 
Others situated their investigations within the political and economic 
context of specific media to address apartheid, exploitation, or propaganda.

SPM does not advocate for any one school of thought. Analytic 
philosophy, language philosophy, phenomenology, post-phenomenology, 
hermeneutics, and Marxist approaches are all welcome.
