Digitcult journal calls for research papers on the novel concept of
Future Screen, a cross disciplinary topic that has the potential to
reshape immersive media, film, narrative and game design, music and
performing arts and more broadly the sector of Creative industries,
Culture and Entertainment. We would contributors to explore the
innovative impact of emerging technologies from XR (Augmented,
Virtual- and Mixed- Realities) and Dome Visualisation, to Video
Mapping, Virtual Production, Mobile, Wearable and Embedded
‘internet-of-things’ media; from macro perspectives (analyse the
broad, societal impacts of future screen technologies) to micro
perspectives (delve into micro-level changes in individual behaviours
and community interactions).
We ask papers to reflect on Future Screen as a catalyst definition
aiming at a unified view for screenbased technologies and their
emergent uses in the future, and how this could reframe audience,
storytelling, industries and communities of practice and questioning
some of the key aspect of media
studies. The special issue calls for contributions that shed new light
on theoretical, analytical and empirical insights that help to
understand the impact of Future Screen(s) on Space, Audience and
Content: How are new screen technologies altering physical and virtual
spaces? What are the implications for content creation and
consumption? How do these changes affect the dynamics between
creators, audiences, and industries?

In particular, but not exclusively, we ask papers addressed to any of
the following key themes:

1. Audience Experiences: Individual and Collective
2. Urban Collective Experiences vs. Individual Experiences
3. Hybridity in Future Screens
4. Storytelling and Narrative Innovations
5. Tensions and Transformations in Research and Artistic Domains
6. Industrial Impact and Sustainability
