In less than a year, the release of tools such as the large language model-based chatbot ChatGPT and image generation platforms like DALL-E or Midjourney has given rise to lively discussion and urgent questions around the potential of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) based systems. Debates around AI are a sharp reminder of the deepening interconnections of digital technologies and human life, which are particularly pervasive and tangible – if not always immediately visible – in urban spaces. Already captured through terms such as ‘algorithmic cities’, ‘data-driven urbanism’, ‘code/spaces’ and ‘sentient cities’, urban environments have for some time been understood as emergent venues for various kinds of computational agency, ranging from surveillance systems, delivery apps and neighbourhood social media to automated infrastructures, outdoor advertising and digital art.
This conference puts forward the notion of ‘the synthetic city’ as a provocation for thinking through the potentials, politics, and everyday implications of these long-term and more recent developments in digitalising urban life. As the above definitions imply, we intend ‘the synthetic city’ to relate to both synthetic and synthesis: the former captures how AI and related digital technologies might imitate or replace human agency (e.g. with ‘synthetic’ data being used to generate various urban simulations, whether for critical infrastructure, leisure or gaming environments); whereas the latter captures how these same technologies always-already involve combinations of computational and human agency (e.g. unfolding alongside the dynamics of everyday routines, political interests, institutions, and so on).
We therefore welcome a range of contributions, exploring both the technologies as such, as well as the broader social, cultural and political contexts of the synthetic city. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
We welcome work-in-progress contributions as well as finished works, encompassing research into both current and future developments, with empirical, theoretical, or methodological focus, and from a broad spectrum of disciplines (e.g. communication and media studies, sociology, human geography, urban studies, or science and technology studies). Participants can submit one of three types of submissions:
Abstracts must be submitted by 12 June 2023 (by midnight anywhere in world) to mediacity.twg@gmail.com. Notification of acceptance will be sent by 23 June 2023.

The ECREA Media Industries and Cultural Production section is delighted to act as partner for the International Conference Media Industries (MI2024), taking place on 16-19 April 2024. The Conference is hosted by the Department of Culture, Media and Creative Industries, King’s College London. Paper, panel, and roundtable proposals are now open.
After the success in 2018 of the inaugural conference ‘Media Industries: Current Debates and Future Directions’, unfortunately the planned 2020 conference had to be cancelled due to Covid lockdowns. We are therefore very pleased to announce the conference will return next year.
A key aim of MI2024 is to maintain an open intellectual agenda and provide a meeting ground for all forms of media industries research. To this end, the conference invites proposals for papers, panels, and roundtables presenting research from across the full breadth of the media industries.
To energize interdisciplinary discussions, we welcome proposals presenting research from all intellectual and methodological traditions in media industries scholarship.
Additionally, to recognize the full scope and diversity of media industries, proposals may address industries in contemporary or historical contexts, and at global, transnational, national, or sub-national levels of analysis.
Proposals are welcomed in three categories (see full details below):
• open call papers
• pre-constituted panels
• pre-constituted roundtables
*PLEASE NOTE*: MI2024 will take place in-person only and we are unable to accommodate requests for virtual presentations.

SUBMISSIONS
The system for submitting proposal is NOW OPEN.
Deadline for submissions is 23.00hrs Pacific Daylight Time (PDT = UTC -7) on Friday 15 September 2023
Proposals are welcomed in three categories and should be submitted through the following links.
1) Open Call Papers
Format: solo or co-presented research paper lasting no more than 20mins.
https://form.jotform.com/231403617601344
2) Pre-constituted Panels
Format: 90mins panel of 3 x 20mins OR 4 x 15mins thematically linked solo or co-presented research papers followed by questions.
https://form.jotform.com/231404242363344
3) Pre-constituted Roundtables
Format: 90mins interactive forum led by a chair bringing together 4 to 6 participants (including the chair as a participant if speaking as well as chairing) to offer short (up to 6 minute) position statements or interventions designed to trigger discussions around a central theme, issue, or problem. As such, a roundtable does not involve the presentation of formal research papers but rather is designed to create a forum for the participants and audience to engage in a shared discussion. The format is flexible and can be adapted to allow members of the roundtable to introduce exercises or other activities where appropriate.
https://form.jotform.com/231403562356350

Have you ever tried to communicate your ideas to a large target audience such as European citizens? Did you find the language barrier or cultural diversity challenging? Maastricht University in collaboration with Pomilio Blumm has designed a summer school course for you.
With a multitude of domestic and international issues that Europe is facing today, there is an increased need for imaginative ideas and innovative strategy. Even the most visionary plan is likely to fail if it is not paired with a compelling and effective public communication strategy. How we "sell" our ideas is essential, especially when the stakes are high and the audience is as diverse and demanding as the citizens of Europe.
This summer school is designed to show how to develop a comprehensive public communication strategy at the EU level. During five days of lectures and problem-based learning sessions, the participants will be introduced to the entire process of narrative building, from receiving a brief and designing creative, content-related strategic solutions to their implementation. You will be introduced to different analytical tools and theories coming from human and social sciences (social psychology, semiotics, sociology, history) that can contribute greatly to designing the best strategy to reach your objectives. The peculiarities of the citizens-institutions relationship will be analysed, as well as the importance of building trust.

This book describes and critically addresses the innovations and shifts made in the revision of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD) adopted by the European Parliament and Council in 2018. Reflecting on European Union regulation and policy practice in all its Member States, the book’s unique approach places in-depth case study topics against the broader theoretical background.
Taking a Europe-wide angle, an international team of authors focuses on key aspects of the AVMSD: the expansion of its scope to include video-sharing-platforms such as YouTube; the update of the rules for commercial communications; the first attempt for harmonized, minimal requirements at EU level regarding transparency of media ownership; new rules to ensure that video-on-demand services offer, invest in, and prioritise European content; the obligation on television distributors and smart TV manufacturers to pass on broadcasters’ signal without any interference, alteration or modification; and, the formalisation and consolidation of new forms of collaboration among national regulatory authorities.
This thorough analysis of the cornerstone of European media policy makes this edited collection a crucial reference for scholars and students of media and cultural industries, media law and policy, European and EU media policy, and technology studies.

Online
Deadline: June 2, 2023
We invite you to submit an abstract for our upcoming conference, taking place online on 12 October 2023. Deadline for applications is 2 June 2023.
More info: https://ecrea.eu/event-5219347
This one-day conference seeks to explore the methods we use and approaches we take for understanding media and cultural production in the contemporary moment. The field of media production research has been growing rapidly over the last decades, as more and more researchers see the gains from studying the ‘backends’ of the media and cultural industries. At the same time, new challenges arise due to rapid shifts in the media and cultural industries, as well as forms and practices of media and cultural production and distribution. A sectoral shift in the media and cultural industries has introduced new actors, as well as new questions, theoretical impulses, empirical objects, and research tools and practices.
This conference explores many of the contemporary challenges to understanding the nature of media and cultural production by focusing on the research process, rather than the research findings. In doing so, we hope to encourage researchers to push the boundaries of production research, share useful research designs, as well as challenging moments and failed experiments, that we can still learn from.
We also have two excellent keynote addresses:
We invite scholars to present short papers or provocations on methods and methodology in the field of media and cultural production research. The presentations can reflect on one’s own research designs and methodologies, as well as on broader issues such as developing novel methods and approaches in the field, or conceptual and theoretical discussions on the practice of studying media and cultural production in recent years.
To apply
Submit a 150-300-word abstract (excluding references) and a 100-word bio for each speaker (including email address and affiliation). In your submission, please indicate whether you are applying for a 15-minute presentation or a 7-minute provocation.
Please send your proposal to Vilde Schanke Sundet at v.s.sundet@media.uio.no.
Costs
This online conference will be free of charge.
Deadline for submission
Deadline for submission: 2 June 2023. Decisions will be communicated no later than mid-August.
Media & Jornalismo
The Scopus indexed Media & Jornalismo receives articles in continuous flow and accepts proposals for the organization of special issues.
Media & Jornalismo, an internationally recognized and Portuguese pioneer journal in the field of Media and Journalism Studies (indexed in Scopus and ERIH Plus), invites the international scientific community to submit articles that fall within the thematic scope of the journal and to submit proposals for the organization of special issues.
This call for papers and proposals for thematic issues is related to the editorial changes that Media & Journalism is implementing and that will come into full force in 2024:
1) From the second semester of 2023 onwards, the submission of articles will happen in continuous flow, all year round. This measure aims to privilege the heterogeneity of themes, responding to a need to cover the most salient academic and scientific issues at a given moment, in the disciplinary field of communication sciences.
2) From 2024, the continuous flow modality is now accompanied by the online first publishing policy, thus reducing the waiting times for publication of the different articles that overcome the double-blind peer review and ensuring the timely dissemination of the critical findings generated that are so important for the systematic accumulation of knowledge in the discipline of communication sciences. Articles published in the online first publishing modality will continue to integrate the Scopus database (in which the journal is indexed) under the denomination "Article in Press". All the articles published in this double format, continuous flow and online first publishing, will integrate, in due time, and in definitive publication, numbers of the journal, which will maintain its biannual periodicity.
3) Also from 2024, all articles accepted for publication will be published in a bilingual version (Portuguese and English or Spanish and English), the English version being compulsory. The journal seeks, with this measure, to internationalize itself and to achieve a different dissemination. The costs resulting from the necessary translations (Portuguese into English; Spanish into English; English into Portuguese), will be borne by the authors of the articles, in a practice followed by other important national journals.
4) The free-to-publish policy of submission and the policy of consultation at no cost for the reader (free-to-read) will be maintained.
5) The continuous flow of submissions and the online first publishing policy do not preclude the organization and publication of special issues, whether a) they are proposed to the journal by guest editors with recognized research merit, b) they seek to cover a topic that is salient in the academic community at the time the proposal is made, and c) the proposal is in line with Media & Journalism's editorial strategy and main thematic lines. In the case of special issues, the articles included and organized by the guest editors are published together and immediately after the formatting of the various articles that integrate the different special issues.
