Dear Rainer, Your proposed workshop sounds very interesting. I am a linguist working partly on social media data. I have done a little research on nonverbal elements of Trump and Clinton, and of the general public before the US elections. Can i ask about the format of the paper? How long will it be? Also, what fields of research do you want to see in this workshop? Many thanks in advance! Ye Le mer. 11 janv. 2017 07:22, Rainer Hillrichs <hillrichs@uni-mannheim.de> a écrit :
Dear all,
during the past couple of months, the impact of social media on elections has been a prominent topic of discussion. 'Fake news' and big-data-based advertising were discussed in particular. The Network of European Cinema and Media Studies (NECS) is holding its annual conference in Paris from June 29 to July 1. The NECS workgroup 'new media' wants to submit a panel by the working title "Social Media and Elections: Practices, Discourses, Impact". If you want to be part of this panel, send your idea for a paper to hillrichs@uni-mannheim.de ASAP. We have two participants already. While the panel’s working title is still very general, ideas for papers should be specific of course. As the workgroup’s coordinator, I’ll see if ideas work together and come back to you to ask for the full abstract. The panel has to be submitted by January 31.
Best,
Rainer
P.S. Don't be put off by the conference's topic "Senses and Sensibilities": Submissions from all fields of cinema and media studies will be considered for acceptance.
