Join the Vanguard: Call for Abstracts on Generative AI at 4S Seattle
by Martin Berg 15 Jan '25

15 Jan '25

Dear colleagues, Just when you thought—or perhaps hoped—that the invitations to submit abstracts for panels at the 4S conference in Seattle later this year had come to an end, here’s yet another one. Apologies for any cross-postings, but I imagine it’s challenging to separate signal from noise when it comes to these announcements. As the Director of the Digital Work Futures Research Lab at Malmö University (https://www.linkedin.com/company/digitalworkfutures) in collaboration with the Emerging Technologies Research Lab and the FUTURES Hub at Monash University in Melbourne, I am coordinating the panel “Generative AI and the Digital Vanguard: Exploring Daily Transformations in Creative Work.” I would love to hear about your research at the conference, so please consider submitting an abstract (we have previously coordinated challenging, enjoyable, and indeed, delightful panels on similar themes in Honolulu and Amsterdam, and I look forward to another rewarding and productive conference with new connections and collaborations as a result). Here is the call in its entirety: Generative AI is often hailed as a transformative force, promising to reshape creative and digital industries by unlocking new potentials in efficiency, creativity, and productivity. Yet, the real nature of this transformation is best understood through the lived experiences of those at the vanguard: professionals actively integrating generative AI into their daily practices. These digital pioneers—software engineers, project managers, CEOs, and creatives—do not merely adopt these tools; they redefine their fields and influence expectations of how generative AI will impact work and life. This panel explores the quiet, everyday transformations generative AI brings to the work lives of these innovators, focusing on how the technology becomes embedded in routines and workflows. Through close collaboration with practitioners, we aim to capture their insights on how they experience, anticipate, and adapt to generative AI, revealing the social dynamics driving this shift. This collaborative approach provides a grounded perspective on the evolving narratives and practices around the future of work. We invite empirical, theoretical, and conceptual papers, particularly those developed with practitioners, to enrich this dialogue. Our focus includes the ‘quiet’ ways generative AI integrates into daily work, offering insights that often slip under the scholarly radar. By engaging with those on the digital vanguard, this panel aims to reveal the realities behind generative AI’s transformative promise and examine how these insights are collectively shaping the future of work. If this sounds like a good fit for your work, do not hesitate—submit your abstract! Here is the link: https://www.4sonline.org/call_for_submissions_seattle.php. I look forward to your contributions! Best regards, Martin Berg — Professor Martin Berg Department of Computer Science and Media Technology Malmö University https://mau.se/en/persons/martin.berg/

CFP> AMCIS Minitrack: Social Theory in Information Systems Research (STIR ’25)
by Rosenbaum, Howard S. 15 Jan '25

15 Jan '25

Minitrack: Social Theory in Information Systems Research (STIR ’25) Track: Social Inclusion (SIGSI) AMCIS 2025, Aug. 14-16 2025 Montreal, Canada STIR ‘24 solicits papers using social theory to critically examine digital technologies and their roles in enabling and constraining social change. Examples of social theory that could be used include, but are certainly not limited to social presence theory, impression management actor-network theory, sociomateriality, critical theory, practice theory, gender socialization theory, agency theory and others. We are particularly interested in completed or emerging research that addresses the conference theme, Intelligent technologies for a better future, exploring the ways in which access to technology and digital resources can be used to mitigate digital disparities, particularly for marginalized communities. Issues might include improving access to computing and digital resources for marginalized populations and improve social inclusion, critically assessing the ways in which digital technologies and information systems can be used to encourage social progress by providing equal opportunities for all to participate in digital life, and the development and analysis of sustainable business models for social entrepreneurship that prioritize social impact. STIR is a long-standing minitrack and we hope to continue a tradition of high-quality papers, and thought-provoking discussions among IS researchers using social theory in their work. In addition to research aligned with the conference theme we are also interested in high quality empirical and conceptual work that uses social theory to investigate issues such as (but not limited to): • Critically assessing the ways in which digital technologies and information systems can be used to privilege some and exclude others • Understanding the impacts of the digital technologies on the digital divide • Assessing the unintended consequences of the implementation and use of digital technologies in organizations and in social life • Reflection on the ways in which digital technologies assemblages support and challenge political, cultural, and economic hegemonies. • Social impacts of information systems design for development • Ways in which technology transfer came address digital disparities • Impacts and ethical implications of artificial intelligence in business, education, and social life • Digital technologies, artificial intelligence and the future of work • Reengineering the pipeline in STEM education for greater inclusiveness and diversity If you have questions, please contact the minitrack chairs Submission Guidelines: https://amcis2025.aisconferences.org/submissions/types-of-submissions/ Important Dates: Paper submissions begin: January 5, 2025 Paper Submission Deadline: Feb 28, 2025, 5:00 PM EST Conference Dates: August 14-16, 2025 Mini-Track chairs Pnina Fichman, Indiana University, fichman(a)iu.edu Howard Rosenbaum, Indiana University, hrosenba(a)iu.edu

CfP for 4S Panel - Power, Responsibility and Expertise at the Expanding Table(s) of AI Design and Governance
by Alphoncina Lyamuya 15 Jan '25

15 Jan '25

Dear all, We invite you to submit an abstract to 4S open panel "Power, Responsibility and Expertise at the Expanding Table(s) of AI Design and Governance" at the 2025 4S Conference, which will take place in Seattle, USA on September 3 – 7, 2025. Deadline for submission: January 31, 2025 4S Open Panel #35 <https://www.4sonline.org/accepted_open_panels_seattle.php> *Title*: Power, Responsibility and Expertise at the Expanding Table(s) of AI Design and Governance *Organizers:* Stephen Yang, University of Southern California Alphoncina Lyamuya, University of Southern California Rohan Grover, University of Southern California *Abstract:* The pursuits of social and ethical responsibility in AI design and governance markedly translate to the liberal inclusion of diverse stakeholders. This introduces a new set of experts and expertise to the table. Beyond engineers in technology companies and policymakers in government agencies, the design and governance of AI is increasingly (re)configured by a growing constellation of “responsible AI” actors and organizations — such as user experience researchers, ethics consultants, privacy counsels, data annotators, community representatives, inter-governmental organizations, trust and safety vendors, standard-making bodies, civil societies, labor unions, and many more. Despite the broader inclusion of experts and expertise, only certain methods are legitimized as the normative lingua franca of how we ought to do responsible AI, wielding greater political valence and epistemic authority over others. These include legal compliance, risk assessment, algorithmic auditing, preference elicitation, red teaming, and user experience design. By contrast, other possibilities of design and governance, namely prefigurative design, critical fabulation, and agonistic pluralism, are often sidelined or outright dismissed. To understand the redistribution of power and responsibility at the expanding table of AI design and governance, this panel invites submissions that critically interrogate the intra- and inter-organizational politics of responsible AI expertise. We welcome empirical studies that scrutinize the stabilizing (and destabilizing) of particular actors and epistemes of doing responsible AI over others. We also welcome contributions that genealogically situate the contestation of power, responsibility, and expertise in present-day configurations of responsible AI within longer historical contingencies, as well as contributions that conceptualize alternative forms, relations, and structures of doing responsible AI in light of — or in spite of — the organizational and epistemic politics at play. We particularly encourage submissions that consider the politics of responsible AI expertise on the margins, at the infrastructural level, at global and planetary scales, and on longer temporal horizons. Submission guidelines and additional panel details (panel #35) can be found here <https://www.4sonline.org/accepted_open_panels_seattle.php>.

Call for abstracts: Simondon and AI - STS Italia Conference 2025
by Susana Gomes 15 Jan '25

15 Jan '25

** Call for abstracts ** We invite you to submit an abstract to the panel “Simondon and AI: A Collective Individuation in the Year of His Birth Centenary” at the upcoming STS Italia Conference, taking place in Milan, Italy on 11-13 June 2025. Deadline for submissions: 3 February 2025 At this historical juncture, when thinking about society seems inseparable from AI and related data-driven technologies, the work of French philosopher Gilbert Simondon is receiving renewed attention. Although his writings predate recent advances in AI and machine learning by decades, they are becoming increasingly relevant to contemporary reflections on these technologies. Simondon’s legacy spans disciplines, influencing theorisations of technical cognition (Hayles, 2017), automated labour (Stiegler, 2016), digital media (Hui, 2016), Blackness and computation (Amaro, 2022), and algorithmic governmentality (Bardin and Ferrari, 2022), as well as research on specific technologies and contexts (e.g., Liyanage, 2024). In retrospect, the resurgence of Simondon’s oeuvre is hardly surprising. In On the Mode of Existence of Technical Objects (2017), his commitment to placing technicity at the heart of sociocultural enquiry resonates deeply in an era of inscrutable AI systems. At the same time, his tripartite framework of elements, individuals, and ensembles continues to offer a rich lexicon for articulating the co-constitution of agencies across the human-technology continuum. Equally important is his pursuit of a relational and processual ontology, further elaborated in Individuation in Light of Notions of Form and Information (2020), which has long unsettled the rigid binaries and essentialism that advancements in AI expose as ever more untenable. Unifying his thought is the notion of the transindividual—a co-individuating dynamic linking individual and collective life—which unfolds as fertile terrain for exploring the uncharted forms of sociality AI may yet bring into being. As we mark the centenary of Simondon’s birth, we embrace his genuine technical curiosity as a lens for engaging with AI both critically and generatively, thereby avoiding the comforting retreats into either technophobia or technophilia. With plans for a follow-up special issue, this panel welcomes contributions—whether theoretical, empirical, or both—that engage with Simondon’s ideas, unrestricted by disciplinary, thematic, or methodological boundaries. Rather than outlining a predefined set of research questions or topics, we encourage submissions that, once brought together, may reveal emerging patterns of political concerns, ethical orientations, and research trajectories, especially those intersecting STS concepts and theories. In this way, we hope to facilitate a collective process of individuation, with Simondon and AI as the associated milieu. For submission guidelines and panel details (panel no. 3) visit: https://stsitalia.org/call-for-abstracts/#theme Panel organisers: Fabio Iapaolo (Politecnico di Milano), Ludovico Rella (Durham University) and Susana Aires (King’s College London).

CFP: Media Atmospheres International Symposium, Jönköping University Sweden
by Erika Polson 15 Jan '25

15 Jan '25

Deadline Extended to 27 January. Final call for papers: Media Atmospheres International Symposium, Jönköping University Sweden Organisers: Annette Hill (MKV, Jönköping University) and Hario Priambodho (MKV, Lund University) Venue: Grand Hotel & Gamla Rådhuset, Jönköping Dates: 2-3 May 2025 Media atmospheres are under pressure. There are scientific and metaphorical meanings of atmospheres as related to both climate and infrastructures and emotions and experiences. From the political economic forces applied to media industries, the representation of different climates in film and media, to the feeling of atmospheres surrounding political and cultural engagement, it is timely to question the generation of atmospheres by media technologies and institutions, texts and artefacts, and citizens and audiences. How can we forge links between established and new theories and methods for media and the environment? We use the concept of ‘media atmospheres’ to promote engagement on this crucial set of topics. For example, media devices, infrastructures and systems impact on atmospheres, including the forces applied to the financing, regulation, production and distribution of media in society and the detrimental impact of media on the climate and environment. How various media create atmospheres is also of significance, from the mood of certain genres in film, TV, podcasts and streaming media, to the political and emotional climate of social media, campaigns and activism. This multidisciplinary symposium addresses the role of media in generating various atmospheres, both positive and negative, material and symbolic. We invite international researchers to critically examine the theme of media atmospheres through empirical and theoretical research across media and communications, critical infrastructures and technologies, climate and the environment, culture and society. Core questions for this symposium include 1) What different kinds of atmospheres are generated in media and communications, culture and society? 2) How do media atmospheres generate power and social (in)equalities? 3) Which methodologies and methods can be applied to critically analyse media atmospheres? The symposium addresses a range of areas, including: * Phenomenology of atmospheres and media, communication and cultural studies; * Atmospheres and critical infrastructures studies, critical data studies and science and technology studies; * Atmospheres in audience studies, fan studies, and film and reception studies; * Atmospheres and eco media studies, environmental communication and sustainable society; * Creating atmospheres in arts, film, radio, television, social media and web series; * Atmospheres and organisations, work, and labour relations; * Political atmospheres in news, documentary, information, disinformation and polarization, and campaigns; * Atmospheres in live events, social media, drama, film, radio, podcasting and television studies; * Atmospheres in mobility, transnational communication and transportation of goods and services, humans and non humans. The programme for the symposium across two days includes three keynote panels with invited speakers and open parallel panels. There will be a dedicated website, video and podcasts of keynote panels, and selected papers from the symposium will be edited in an international academic publication. The senior editors at Intellect Press and Routledge will be present, chairing an interactive roundtable on academic publishing for scientific books and journals. International invited speakers include Julia Brockley (Intellect Press), Simon Dawes (Université de Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, France), Natalie Foster (Routledge), Christine Geraghty (Glasgow University, UK), Joke Hermes (InHolland University, Netherlands), Annette Hill (Jönköping University, Sweden), Peter Lunt (Leicester University, UK), and Dylan Mulvin (LSE, UK), Hario Priambodho (Lund University, Sweden). Please submit an abstract of 300 words in English by extended deadline January 27 2025 to Hario Priambodho (hario.priambodho(a)kom.lu.se<mailto:hario.priambodho@kom.lu.se>). For further information please consult our website https://ju.se/Media%20Atmospheres%20international%20symposium<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/ju.se/Media*20Atmospheres*20internationa…> There is a registration fee of 2800 SEK. The fee covers lunches, beverages and snacks over two days, and a grand three course meal at the end of symposium at Grand Hotel.
