Total Mobilization: Web and Social Reality
What is the web doing? What is the web? What does the web want?
The web is mobilizing human beings in impressive and unprecedented ways. In order to understand this phenomenon, we should wonder what kind of entity the web is, how it relates to and bears upon human society and culture. The conference aims at doing so by involving scholars who, in their researches, are addressing these issues from different perspectives. e.g. philosophy, cognitive sciences, anthropology, social sciences.

The Progect Network for the study of progressive rock
Second International Conference
After the success of the first initiative in Dijon (2014), The Progect is organizing its second international conference on the 25th, 26th and 27th May 2016 in Edinburgh, UK. For this second event we encourage researchers to present papers that develop an interdisciplinary approach to progressive rock across three fields: musicology, sociology and media studies. We especially welcome papers that explore the ways in which these fields interact, complement or contradict each other.

Immigration: Fear and the Media
Magazine Africa e Mediterraneo No. 82
The issue 82 of Africa e Mediterraneo wants to investigate the challenges brought about by media and political communication, considering as focuses of analysis the communication processes within the European society (both of local media and migrants’ initiatives) and those activated in the African Countries, being aware that the circulation of ideas, images and cultural practices is more and more leading to a growing deterritorialization of the media and their messages and to the consequential crossing of national borders.

Contemporary Research on Intertextuality in Video Games
While intertextuality is an ever-present phenomenon in video games and connects to other media and other popular culture products, there are few articles or doctoral thesis related to this subject, and to date no monograph or collective books. This book proposal is an answer to this lack of publications on intertextuality in video games. This book will aim to provide relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the area. The impact on game studies is important because it allows us to understand: the relationship of games to other media; a part of the motivation of the player to engage in a game; the ways in which the culture industry can use this phenomenon to improve the quality and attractiveness of games (for example, the creation of derivative works such as novels, comics and cartoons).

Sports, genders and sexualities
Social, Ethical and Political Challenges
As expressions of cultural embodiment, sexualities, genders and sports can be analyzed as a mirror of societies’ transformations and developments. The analysis of sports, gender and sexuality can be a key to analyze changes and persistence's in social interactions and collective representations. This workshop seeks to create a discursive space for contributors to explore the social, ethical and political criticalities arising in the interaction between sports, gender and sexualities in contemporary societies. We invite papers aimed at both understanding the relationships between sports, genders and sexualities, and using them as a tool to analyse broader social, ethical and political transformations. As such, such, we hope to provide both critical evaluation of current theories and paradigms by which sport, gender and sexuality are understood and encourage the opening of new horizons for critical investigations.
