CfP Symposium Dis/Connection: Conflicts, Activism and Reciprocity Online and Beyond, Sept 27-28, Uppsala University, Sweden
by Magdalena Kania Lundholm 10 May '18

10 May '18

Dear Colleagues, The Cultural Matters Group at the Department of Sociology, Uppsala University on Sept. 27-28 organizes a symposium called Dis / Connection: Conflicts, Activism and Reciprocity Online and Beyond and we look forward to receiving your papers! Deadline for submissions is June 18, 2018. The symposium focuses on a fundamental aspect of social relationships, namely the idea of connection. We invite abstract submissions on the possibilities of connectivity, but also the problems and promises of the act of disconnection. Digital networks embedded in everyday lives have transformed virtually every aspect of social life – from intimate relations with family and friends to the collective acts of digital activism. Digital relations and connections are our starting point for a broader discussion of notions of connectivity and how they are developing, failing, or simply being reproduced. Therefore, we also focus on the idea of disconnection as a voluntary act to take control over one’s use of digital technologies, as an act of resistance and of saying no to the opaque structures of power and control in the networked society. The goal is to further the discussion on the gains, costs and possibilities of ethical life in the culture of hyperconnectivity. The symposium also aims to address destructive functions of connected living, such as surveillance, trolls, selfies, fake news, fake news accusations, sexual harassment, click baiting, commercialism, terrorism, viruses, spam, and the colonization of private life. In other words, we are interested in how connectivity and disconnectivity can give rise to and facilitate social inclusion and democratic processes, as well as exclusion, isolation and conflict. Confirmed keynote speaker Adam Fish is a cultural anthropologist and senior Lecturer at the Sociology Department at Lancaster University. He will give a talk entitled “Anthropology, Atmosphere, Anthropocene: Drones, Disruptive Justice, and the Disruption of the Earth.” The talk will include insights from his latest research on the use of drones in various contexts: surveillance, environmental protection, and war. Fish is the author of Technoliberalism and the end of participatory culture in the United States (2017, Palgrave) and After the internet (2017, Polity), together with Ramesh Srinivasan, and is currently working on a book called Hacker States. Further speakers to be announced. Mako Ishizuka, Japanese artist based in Paris, will conduct a performance art piece in parallel with the talks and paper sessions. She has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions internationally, including France, Japan and the Netherlands. For more info see: http://makois.com<http://makois.com/> Papers could address but are not limited to the following themes: * What is ‘connectivity’ and how can we analyze it? * Sexism, peer pressure and online harassment * Digital activism / hacktivism * Bad connection – communication networks gone awry * The digital underclass – outsourced journalists, click farm and troll factory workers, and networking refugees * “Someone is very wrong on the internet” – risk, edgework, and the rise of the internet as a polarized political space * Digital afterlives and post-humanism * Digital intimacies * Online radicalization and extremism * Epistemic enclosures (so called “Google Bubbles”) and the future of representative democracy * The colonization of attention and attention economy * The self promotion video as a technique of the self * 1337 h4x0rz * Politicians’ tweets, dick picks, inappropriate tagging and other downsides of being connected * Analog relationships offline – embodied relationships between humans (and other animals) as a way to opt out of the digital * Voluntary disconnection Abstract submission and fees: The symposium will be free of charge, including coffee and a dinner in the evening of the 27th September. The number of participants is limited. Please submit your abstract to disconnection(a)soc.uu.se<mailto:disconnection@soc.uu.se> together with your name, affiliation and contact details. Use the same address for queries, and if you want to attend the conference without presenting a paper. Abstracts should not exceed 250 words. You will be notified concerning your participation in the beginning of July. Deadline for submissions is June 18, 2018. We’ re looking forward to receiving your papers!

Call for papers: Sexual Violence, Social Movements, and Social Media Ada: A Journal of Gender, New Media, and Technology Issue 13 3/4
by Radhika G 09 May '18

09 May '18

*Call for papers: Sexual Violence, Social Movements, and Social MediaAda: A Journal of Gender, New Media, and TechnologyIssue 13 3/4* Co-editors: Pallavi Guha (University of Maryland, College Park), Radhika Gajjala (Bowling Green State University), and Carol Stabile (University of Maryland, College Park) Over the past decade, social media have facilitated practices of sexual violence (stalking, doxxing, harassment, bullying, revenge porn, genocide, etc.) against socially and economically marginalized individuals and groups. At the same time, social media have allowed survivors and allies to report and draw attention to sexual violence, establishing patterns and sharing testimony about the crimes committed against them. Feminist activists throughout the world have been using social media to draw attention to and fight against sexual violence. Using hashtags on Twitter and Instagram, posting images on Tumblr, blogging, and otherwise circumventing traditional structures of power, protected by media gatekeepers, feminists have enhanced awareness and advocated for change. This issue invites research and scholarship that examines sexual violence through multiple lenses (including but not limited to race, class, immigration status, caste, gender orientation, religion) on a range of topics related to social media. We are particularly interested in work that contributes to theorizing and working toward social change. Contributions in formats other than the traditional essay are encouraged; please contact the editor to discuss specifications and/or multimodal contributions. Drawings, sounds, videos that come along with written explanations of their narratives are also welcome. You can send your proposal as a .pdt or .doc document before the June 25, 2018 deadline. Please use “Ada Issue 13 3/4 Contribution” for your subject line and include the following in the body of your message: - Your name and a short biography - A 150 word maximum abstract - A list of five keywords/tags - Preferred email address - Citation style used (if applicable) *Complete submissions should be sent by June 25, 2018 to editor(a)adanewmedia.org <editor(a)adanewmedia.org>. *Contributions should be no more than 2,500 words. About *Ada*: *Ada* is an online, open access, open source, peer-reviewed journal run by feminist media scholars. The journal’s first issue was published online in November 2012. Since that launch, Ada articles have received more than 500,000 page views. Ada operates a review process that combines feminist mentoring with the rigor of peer review. The peer review process is also open and transparent. We have detailed guidelines concerning the review process at the following link http://adanewmedia.org/ beta-reader-and-review-policy/ and we encourage submitters to take a look before submitting to make sure that they are comfortable with such a process with public dimensions. For this issue, we will be experimenting with Google docs for our open peer review process. We do not — and will never — charge fees for publishing your materials. Unlike for-profit journals, you own the copyright for your article. We share your scholarship using the Creative Commons License with which you are most comfortable.

The 34th ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC 2019): Call for Track Proposals
by Announce Announcements 09 May '18

09 May '18

*** CALL FOR TRACK PROPOSALS *** The 34th ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC 2019) St. Raphael Resort, Limassol, Cyprus, April 8-12, 2019 http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/lm/lm.php?tk=YWlyLUwJCQlhaXItTEBsaXN0c2Vydi… *** Submission Deadline: May 25, 2018 *** For the past thirty-three years the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC) has been a primary and international forum for applied computer scientists, computer engineers and application developers to gather, interact and present their work. The ACM Special Interest Group on Applied Computing (SIGAPP) is the sole sponsor of SAC. The conference proceedings are published by ACM and are also available online through ACM's Digital Library. SAC is based on a flexible structure of mostly self-contained and self-managed tracks. Over the past years SAC hosted tracks on a variety of timely topics such as Artificial Intelligence, Bioinformatics, Computer Security, Database Technology, Data Mining, Embedded Systems, Evolutionary Computing, Distributed Systems and Grid Computing, Mobile Computing, Programming Languages, Software Engineering, and Web Technologies. SAC 2018 included 40 tracks that attracted 931 paper submissions from 50 countries; 235 submissions were finally accepted as full papers (25% acceptance rate). More information on past SAC events can be found at http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/lm/lm.php?tk=YWlyLUwJCQlhaXItTEBsaXN0c2Vydi… . The 34th Annual SAC meeting will be held in April 2019 in Limassol, Cyprus, and is hosted by the University of Cyprus. The conference Organizing Committee solicits proposals for organizing and hosting tracks. Prospective track chairs should submit an up to two-page description for organizing a track, which should include at least the following items: 1) The proposed title for the track with a description of its aims, topics it will cover, and rationale for having such a track in SAC. This rationale should refer to any related conference events that are held regularly and why the proposed track differs from them or complements them. The proposed track should not be overly general but also not overly specialized, thus being able to attract a wide audience of people sharing similar interests. Proposals from industry are also encouraged. Despite its name, SAC also welcomes topics of mostly theoretical nature, provided there is clear practical potential in applying the results of such work. 2) A short description of the activities the track chair(s) will undertake upon acceptance of the proposal, to disseminate the call-for-papers for the track, and to manage the review process. (Current Track Chairs guideline document is posted on the SAC 2019 website). 3) A short CV of the prospective track chair(s) with reference to research interests and publication record directly related to the themes of the proposed track, and any previous experience of involvement in the organization of similar events (in the interest of brevity, reference to a personal web page where such information can be found will be sufficient). All proposals will be reviewed by the Program Committee using the criteria described above. The Committee reserves the right to: (1) accept a proposal as is, (2) require modifications before acceptance, (3) recommend merging of similar proposals with a considerable overlap in the topics addressed (in this case the track chairs of the different proposals will be asked to form a single track), (4) reject a proposal. Upon acceptance of a proposal, the track chairs will be notified of their responsibilities in managing the affairs of their track; as such responsibilities are defined by both the ACM and SAC conference rules. The Committee reserves the rights to cancel a track at any time if these responsibilities are not addressed adequately by the track chair(s). Important Dates May 25, 2018: Submission of track proposals June 8, 2018: Notification of acceptance/rejection June 15, 2018: Call-For-Papers for accepted tracks Sept 10, 2018: Submission of papers Sept 20, 2018: Submission of tutorial proposals Nov 10, 2018: Author notification Nov 25, 2018: Camera-ready copies Please submit your proposal electronically to the START submission system in PDF format through the SAC 2019 website. If you encounter any problems for your submission, please e-mail your questions to: - Dongwan Shin (dongwan.shin(a)nmt.edu) - Seiji Isotani (isotani(a)ieee.org) SAC 2019 Program Co-Chairs

Community Academic Research Partnerships in Digital Context
by Eric Gordon 08 May '18

08 May '18

Dear Friends and Colleagues, I’m excited to share a new report published by the Engagement Lab called Community Academic Research Partnership in Digital Contexts: Opportunities, Limitations, and New Ways to Promote Mutual Benefit <https://elabhome.blob.core.windows.net/resources/mou.pdf>. Emerging directly from our work with Boston Civic Media <https://bostoncivic.media>, this report provides an overview of the concerns, values, and roles of digital data and communications in community-academic research partnerships from the perspectives of Community Partner Organizations (CPOs). It also contains an MOU template with a suggested series of prompts for the researcher and community group to arrive at a set of mutual interests, shared decision-making practices, and an agreed-upon understanding of data ownership practices. All in all, our hope is that this report and the MOU template serves as a useful resource for practitioners seeking productive ways to manage research partnerships in the digital age, and as a launching pad for future research focusing on the perspectives of CPOs. You can read and download the full report here: <https://elab.emerson.edu/projects/civic-media-practice> https://elab.emerson.edu/projects/mou. Best, Eric

Last CFP E-Vote-Id 2018
by Peter ROENNE 08 May '18

08 May '18

[Apologies for cross and multiple postings] One week left to submit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS E-Vote-ID 2018 Third International Joint Conference on Electronic Voting Bregenz, Austria, 2-5 October 2018 www.e-vote-id.org (Paper Submission Date: 15 May 2018) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- WWW: https://www.e-vote-id.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EVoteID/ Twitter: @evotingcc Hashtag: #EVoteID2018 This conference is one of the leading international events for e-voting experts from all over the world. In 2016 the two previously bi-annually held conferences, EVOTE and VoteID, were merged into the annual E-VOTE-ID conference. The third joint conference will take place in October 2018. One of its major objectives is to provide a forum for interdisciplinary and open discussion of all issues relating to electronic voting. Cumulatively, since 2004 some 1,000 experts from all over the world have attended this conference to discuss electronic voting and related topics. The aim of the conference is to bring together e-voting specialists working in academia, politics, government and industry in order to discuss various aspects of all forms of electronic voting (including, but not limited to, polling stations, kiosks, ballot scanners and remote voting by electronic means) in the three following tracks below and a PhD colloquium: Track on Security, Usability, and Technical Issues Design, analysis, formal modeling or research implementation of: - Electronic voting protocols and systems; - Voter identification and authentication; - Ballot secrecy, receipt-freeness and coercion resistance; - Election verification including end-to-end verifiability and risk limiting audits; - Requirements; - Evaluation and certification, including international security standards, e.g. Common Criteria or ITSEC; - Human aspects of security mechanisms in electronic voting and in particular of verifiability mechanisms; - Or any other security and HCI issues relevant to electronic voting. Track on Administrative, Legal, Political, and Social Issues - Discuss legal, political and social issues of electronic voting implementations, ideally employing case study methodology; - Analyze the interrelationship with, and the effects of electronic voting on democratic institutions and processes; - Assess the cultural impact of electronic voting on institutions, behaviours and attitudes of the Digital Era; - Discuss the administrative, legal, political and social risks of electronic voting; - Address issues of e-voting policy development and legislative processes; - Explore aspects of public administration in the implementation of electronic voting; - Examine understandability, transparency, and trust issues in electronic voting; - Address issues related to data protection; - Explore issues of public interest vs PPP (public-private partnerships). Track on Election and Practical Experiences - Review developments in the area of applied electronic voting; - Report on experiences with electronic voting or the preparation thereof (including repots on development and implementation, case law, court decisions, legislative steps, public and political debates, election outcomes, etc.); Contributions in this track will be published in TUT press proceedings only. These experience and practical reports need not contain original research, but must be an accurate, complete and, where applicable, evidence-based account of the technology or system used. Submissions will be judged on quality of review and level of analysis, and the applicability of the results to other democracies. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- PhD Colloquium The colloquium continues the tradition of PhD workshops on e-voting. Since 2006 the PhD seminars have focused on various aspects of e-voting including technical aspects, legal challenges, identity management, verifiability of the vote, etc. The workshops took place in various locations in Austria, Catalonia, Denmark, Estonia, Germany, Luxembourg, and Switzerland. The goal of the colloquium is to foster understanding and collaboration between PhD students from various disciplines working on e-voting. To this end, the program allows plenty of space for discussion and initiating collaboration based on presentations by attendees. What makes this colloquium special is that it is truly interdisciplinary, where PhD students from legal backgrounds are joined by PhD students with computer science and cryptography backgrounds and by social scientists. Master students in e-voting and related areas are also welcome to participate. Each interested participant should submit his/her research proposal (or alternatively ideas for papers, open problems, or other issues where feedback from colleagues would be helpful etc.) of some two pages length using the conference platform. In addition to this proposal, participants are asked to fill out a questionnaire about their PhD project. This questionnaire will be send by email to participants who have submitted their proposal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Voting System Demonstration Session We also invite demonstrations of electronic voting systems, to be presented in an open session on Tuesday 2 October during the welcome reception. Participation is open to all conference participants, but we request a one-page summary by 30 September to office(a)e-vote-id.org describing the system's requirements and properties, such as: - whether the system is intended for use in controlled (i.e. in polling stations) or uncontrolled environments (i.e. remotely via the Internet or in kiosks); - which types of elections it accommodates; - whether it addresses the needs of voters with disabilities; - what sort of verifiability it provides; - the extent to which it guarantees vote privacy; - whether it has been deployed in a real election; - where to go for more information. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Format of the Conference The format of the conference is a three-day meeting beginning on Wednesday. On Tuesday, one day before the formal conference, we will hold the PhD colloquium and a demo session for e-voting system demonstrations. No parallel sessions will be held, and sufficient space will be given for informal communication. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paper Submission Paper submissions can be in two formats-either as a full paper or a short paper. - Full paper submissions (max 16 pages in LNCS format all-in); - Short paper submissions (max 2 pages in LNCS format all-in). All submissions will be subject to double-blind reviews. Submissions must be anonymous (with no reference to the authors). Submissions are to be made using the EasyChair conference system at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=evoteid2018, which serves as the online system for the review process. During submission, please select the appropriate track or the PhD colloquium. The track chairs reserve the right to re-assign papers to other tracks in case of better fit based on reviewer feedback and in coordination with other track chairs. LNCS style has to be used (see the Springer guidelines at http://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-gui…, including templates for LaTeX and Microsoft Word). If you think that one or more of the programme committee members could have a conflict of interest with your submission, please let the general chairs know at conference-chairs(a)e-vote-id.org. In turn, according settings in the EasyChair system will be set, so that the respective member/s is/are not involved in the review process. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key Dates for Submissions Deadline for submission of papers: (Hawaiian time, hard deadline, no extension) 15 May 2018 23:59 Paper Bidding Deadline: 20 May 2018 Review Deadline: 15 June 2018 Programme Committee Discussion: 22 June 2018 Notification of Acceptance: 25 June 2018 Deadline for PhD Colloquium submissions: 29 June 2018 Deadline for Resubmission of Conditionally Accepted Papers (shepherding): 13 July 2018 Deadline for Camera-ready Paper Submissions: 27 July 2018 Deadline for One-page Summary for E-Voting System Demonstration Session: 15 September 2018 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Publication The conference proceedings will be available at the time of the conference.

Dear AoIRists I am pleased to announce the publication of my, Media Governance in Korea 1980-2017 (Springer, 2018). *Media Governance in Korea 1980–2017* Daeho Kim <https://www.google.co.kr/search?hl=ko&tbo=p&tbm=bks&q=inauthor:%22Daeho+Kim…> Springer, 2018. 2. 9 This book deals with the changes in Korea's media governance between 1980 and 2017. It addresses this change by applying media governance frameworks, which emphasizes citizen participation and the impact of globalization. It focuses on the formation of the media system in which not only government, but also the private sector and civil society, have interacted as multi-stakeholders and changed the media ecosystem from authoritarian to democratic. The Korean media sector is a rare case that shows how industrialization, democratization and informatization–with global influence–have influenced and changed media governance.
