Critical Digital and Social Media Research Conference
March 6-8, 2019
Umeå University
Organised by DIGSUM (Centre for Digital Social Research) at Umeå
University and the CAMRI (Communication and Media Research Institute),
University of Westminster
https://www.umu.se/en/events/critical-digital--social-media-research_7318389/
Keynote speakers: Mark Andrejevic, Christian Fuchs, Kylie Jarrett, Simon
Lindgren, Evgeny Morozov, Tiziana Terranova
This combined symposium and PhD workshop aims at showing that critical
theories, critical methodologies and critical practices are cornerstones
of digital and social media research and how they act as tools for
questioning big data fetishism and the dominance of overly data-driven
analytics.
The event, aside from the keynotes, presents an opportunity for PhD
students and postdocs to present a short paper and receive feedback from
CAMRI and DIGSUM researchers, and prominent international participants.
Applications to take part in the conference are accepted on a running
basis starting November 29 2018, and the first 16 candidates to be
accepted will have their participation (all travels and accommodation)
fully funded by DIGSUM and CAMRI.
