[Commlist] CFP: Philosophical reflections on Media and Technology │ Athena

_______________________________________________

Journal /Athena: Philosophical Studies/ (https://www.athena.lt/home 
<https://www.athena.lt/home>) invites to submit the articles for the 
thematic issue /Philosophical Reflections on Media and Technology/.

Media and technology are important topics in contemporary philosophical 
reflections. They were discussed in the works of renowned thinkers, such 
as B. Latour, D. Harraway, B. Stiegler, F. Kittler – to name only a few 
– their insights have shaped the way we live and think in our highly 
technologized world.

However, recent technological developments and the rise of machine 
learning and artificial intelligence urge us to think further about the 
impact of media on culture and humans, and formulate bolder hypotheses 
concerning the modes of technological existence and agency. Moreover, 
the new media and the smart technologies invite us to reconceptualize 
the classical philosophical questions and define the new ontological, 
epistemological, and ethical aspects of media and technology.

In this issue, we would like to stimulate the exchange of high-quality 
research that addresses philosophical and (meta)theoretical reflections 
of the media and technology. Potential themes and questions include, but 
are not limited to:

·Ontological perspectives on media and technology;

·Technology and the development of science;

·Media archaeology and media materialism;

·Media, technology and non-human environments, biological systems, media 
ecology;

·Technology and the social, hybrid agents, cyberspace;

·Technology, media and art practices;

·Ethical issues in the age of media and technology.
