Dear friends! Our special issue on "Negotiating Digital Visibility in Asia" has just come out in Convergence journal. Please take a look. https://journals.sagepub.com/toc/CON/current The issue comprises 19 articles examining the practices, motivations, challenges, and concerns about digital visibility from Azerbaijan to Japan, China to the Philippines. We have tried to foreground themes, communities, and locations that are less visible in academic literature — including racialised and gendered minorities, underground artistic groups, diasporic communities and so on. But the articles also look at the reasons why some highly visible phenomena, such as K-pop, achieved their success. Many thanks to all the authors, reviewers as well as friends who helped publicise our call for papers — including many on this listserv. As guest editors, we worked on putting this issue together for two years and are quite proud of the result. We hope that you would find it interesting and useful for your own work. Best wishes, Saif, also on behalf of Qian, Jing and Hiromi _____ *Saif Shahin, Ph.D.* Assistant Professor <https://www.tilburguniversity.edu/staff/s-s-shahin> of Digital Culture Director, Digital South Research Lab <https://www.tilburguniversity.edu/research/humanities/digital-south-lab> Tilburg University, Netherlands Associate Editor <https://www.tandfonline.com/journals/witp20/about-this-journal#editorial-board> Journal of Information Technology & Politics Google Scholar <https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=pzy87iEAAAAJ&hl=en&oi=ao> | ResearchGate <https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Saif-Shahin> Recent articles Fractured Spectacle <https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/13548565251335427> ( *Convergence*, 2025) #StopAsianHate as Hashtag Activism <https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/20563051241309701> (*Social Media + Society*, 2025) Black Lives Matter Goes Global <https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/14614448211057106> (*New Media & Society*, 2024) Platform Affordances and Spiral of Silence <https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0160791X23002361> (*Technology in Society*, 2024)
