Hi, everyone! Our current issue of Digital Culture & Society "Coding Covid-19: The Rise of the App-Society" deals with the concept of code in relation to the Covid-19 crisis. The contributions depart from the idea that both forms of coding have become dramatically intertwined during the pandemic and are structuring a new way of being in and seeing reality. They explore the new forms of data-driven surveillance and representation of the pandemic evolution at the level of real-time epidemiology, sensor technologies, science policies, push media, and the heterogeneous counter-discourses that try to subvert them. Please follow the link below for the full details. We look forward to receiving your abstract proposals by March 15! http://digicults.org/cfp-coding-covid-19-the-rise-of-the-app-society/?fbclid...
