We are inviting book chapter proposals for the edited collection entitled Religion and AI: Theoretical and empirical approaches (Bloomsbury Publishing). The book will draw on cross-disciplinary conversations between scholars in media studies, sociology of religion, and visual arts with a focus on architecture. The project brings together various theoretical and empirical perspectives on religion and Artificial Intelligence and aims to investigate the impact and promise of AI for religious institutions, communities, and individuals; as well as the role AI might play in the representation of religion. The book aims to provide a comprehensive look into uses, understandings, narratives, and projections of the relationship between religion and AI. while the book will include theoretical chapters and reflective essays from the editors, this call is specifically for empirical case studies (4000-6000 words) in one of the following area: * AI and Judaism * AI and Hinduism * AI and Buddhism * AI and religion in the Global South * AI and religious art * AI and religious architecture * AI and religiously or spiritually related visual communication If you are interested, please send Ruth Tsuria (ruth.tsuria@shu.edu<mailto:ruth.tsuria@shu.edu>) an abstract (250 words) by November 1 , 2024.
