Intelligence artificielle et innovation sociale
Organisé par la chaire Unesco « Pratiques émergentes et communication pour le développement », le colloque Intelligence artificielle et innovation sociale vise, à travers une approche interdisciplinaire, à étudier les bouleversements sociaux induits par l'intelligence artificielle, à identifier et analyser les pratiques de l’intelligence artificielle par les acteurs économiques, publics et civils ; d'observer les processus d'appropriation collective ainsi que les logiques de coopération qu'elle suscite (création d’espaces de discussion, de formation, de médiation etc.) ; de développer une approche critique de l’intelligence artificielle et de l'innovation sociale ; de suivre les évolutions des processus d'innovation liées à l’usage des algorithmes ; de révéler les principaux défis soulevés par l’intelligence artificielle ; d'appréhender les freins et les incitants à l'usage de l'intelligence artificielle dans les pays en développement.

Existe-t-il une production langagière spécifique, une rhétorique, une structure propre aux récits d’expérience utilisateurs ? et à la fois à la participation du consommateur dans la stratégie de « publicisation » des marques : comment le discours publicitaire met-il en relation un énonciateur et un énonciataire dans une interaction sociale où les deux parties s’imbriquent ? Les communications pourront porter sur la manière dont les publicités mettent en scène les consommateurs, comment elles les représentent, sur les modalités de mise en relation et en conversation d’une marque avec ses cibles, et sur les prises de parole des consommateurs autour des marques, sur les récits d’expérience utilisés à des fins de marketing, sur le design d’expérience. Nous proposons donc de réfléchir aux diverses modalités d’intervention des consommateurs dans la production des messages publicitaires. Une attention toute particulière sera portée aux discours et aux expressions publicitaires sur le web.

"Storytelling" - narrative between the construction and atomisation of the image and discourse
Entendu communément comme l’art de raconter des histoires, le storytelling se caractérise également par un flou, signe d’une instabilité tant dans sa forme que dans les contenus qu’il véhicule. Christian Salmon, qui a introduit la notion dans le grand public prédisait dans son dernier ouvrage, L’Ère du clash (2019), la fin du storytelling. Et pourtant, les analyses des campagnes de diverses institutions ou des discours politiques font montre d’une large utilisation de cette communication narrative.

International Conference (Jan. 16 and 17, 2020, Paris 8 University, France)
The main focus of this conference will be translation as process, rather than as a mere product, which will prompt us to apprehend translated works as belonging to one or several networks, contexts and translational cultures. In short, translation is a concept that throws new light onto the exchanges and differences pertaining to contemporary digital literary culture. Contemporary digital literary culture mobilizes multiple operations: it involves translation across languages, but includes circulations characteristic of other translational issues at large: exchanges between interfaces, media, codes, institutions, cultural perspectives, artistic and archiving practices. In turn, digital forms of textuality share a certain number of aspects within ubiquitous environments, which means that translational processes will lead us to consider creative practices that stand beyond the traditional field of literature.

New shape of sharing: networks, expertise, information
A forum on current issues in European librarianship
The New Shape of Sharing: Networks, Expertise, Information continues conversations begun at the New Directions Symposium held in Frankfurt in 2017. This multi-day forum of panel presentations, a poster session, and interactive breakout sessions on key issues facing Western European collections and public services will encourage both structured and unstructured debate. We will advance our understanding of the challenges and initiate action in three areas: design new models for collaborative collection development and services; explore a growing range of content and format types and what they mean for libraries and researchers, and highlight the evolving role of libraries and librarians in the research process.

Open Information Science Review
Since its inception, the digital humanities has considered the question “what is it to be human in relation to machines in the digital age?” This issue of Open Information Science asks for papers that consider how we can understand “digital wellness” as part of the ongoing inquiry into what acts, representations, and understandings exist around human-ness in the digital era. Particularly, this volume seeks to explore the possibilities of digital wellness provided through a range of disciplines and forms. We invite papers which consider architectures, platforms, and diverse disciplinary engagements with the opportunities and challenges surrounding digital wellness.

Writing/Translating social media
Social media are now an integral part of our daily lives and the plurality of uses and misuses of those tools is striking : they range from personal interactions to corporate advertising or political campaigning, and from passive consumption of content to creative practices. Through their interfaces and because of their relation to time and topicality, social media trigger specific modes of writing and translating; they also impact the whole chain of publishing, redefine readership and raise archival issues. On could also mention the recent concentration of mainstream media within the GAFAM and an increased relianceon machine-generated content. We therefore welcome contributions that examine the process of writing and/or translating social media from a creative writing, translation studies, institutional, sociological or economic perspective.

“Open Information Science” Journal
The majority of academic papers on the topic of Open Access publishing are available only in fee for use journals. Thus, to make research about open access more widely available, Open Information Science is inviting research, review, and position papers for inclusion in a special issue about Open Access to be published during open access week in October 2018. Especially of interest are papers considering existing models of Open Access (platinum, gold, green, fair) and the controversies surrounding each of them. Works about the development of the Open Access movement and the usage and acceptance of works published openly, are welcome as well. All the submissions will be reviewed by an international panel of experts in the field.

Health Literacy and Physical Literacy in Library Practice
This special issue of Open Information Science seeks submissions related to the theme of "Health Literacy and Physical Literacy in Library Practice." We invite case studies focused on services and programs offered in particular libraries, as well as general analyses of how libraries support health and physical literacies. This special issue seeks to deepen our understanding of how libraries support health literacy and physical literacy through their programs, services, and spaces. We also invite submissions on challenges libraries confront, as well as philosophical and theoretical submissions on the place of health literacy or physical literacy within library practice. Finally, submissions focused on professional or continuing education programs focused on enabling library professionals to better support these literacies are invited. Submissions are invited on library practices in any type of library environment (i.e. academic, school, public). Submissions on public library practices are especially encouraged.

Narrative, the Digital, and ‘Unidentified’ Media
It seems that narrative today is undergoing a radical change in its "source code". New technologies are changing the way texts are produced, distributed, viewed and read. The conference Poetics of the Algorithm intends to chart the implications of this shift. What does it mean that through digital technologies we can now experience on the surface of a single (touch) screen previously distinct media, artefacts and events such as literature in codex form, comic books, exhibitions, films, photographs, visual art and so on? Has medium-specificity become an obsolete notion given that binary code and algorithms seem to bypass material constraints?

The book trades and the challenge of the digital
Digital biennial
La Biennale du numérique est un évènement scientifique et professionnel qui veut questionner les problématiques émergentes portant sur l’impact du numérique, à la fois pour les professionnels du livre, les usages de la lecture, le devenir de l'édition numérique, les innovations en matière de production et de diffusion des contenus, ou encore les évolutions de l'accès à l'information. L’édition 2015 se propose d’analyser les transformations des métiers et des formes d'organisation du travail générées par l’arrivée du numérique dans l’univers des métiers liés au livre. Le postulat consiste donc à prendre le « numérique » comme facteur d’une profonde évolution de ces métiers.

Call for papers - Epistemology and methodology
Knowledge Organization systems and digital humanities
Xth ISKO Conference – France 2015
Over the past fifteen years, digital technology has brought about extensive changes in the conditions of production and dissemination of knowledge. The creation, digitization, structuring, processing and valorization of corpuses of images, texts, sounds, and videos have become such central issues for the sciences that handle them that the questions and practices involved have been brought together under the common heading of “digital humanities”. The Tenth Conference of the French branch of ISKO (ISKO France 2015) calls for contributions exploring theoretical, methodological or practical approaches to these issues, with an emphasis on the various dimensions of the production, organization, and management of knowledge in the digital humanities.
