Time, rhythm and temporality in the cultural sectors
4th study day of the LabEx ICCA young researchers network
Cette journée d’étude propose d’interroger les modalités de la production, mais également de la consommation et des pratiques culturelles et communicationnelles – et leurs possibles mutations – au regard du temps. Il s’agira par exemple de se demander comment les rapports entre passé, présent et futur s’articulent de manière spécifique pour les activités culturelles et créatives ? Ou encore, comment les caractéristiques de la temporalité, comme l’instant, la durée, la séquence, le rythme, sont investies et valorisées par les différents acteur·trices et jouent sur la consommation culturelle ?

Conference, symposium - Education
Childhood + culture = socialisation
Dispositions, categorisations, reconfigurations
What's new in the cultural socialization of children? The 30th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child is marked by the multiplication of research interests concerning children, who have become subjects, autonomous, educated and even transmitters, but also consumers, users and practitioners. Therefore the conference intends to reexamine the categories of childhood and of cultural objects as well as the mediation between the two, whether family, commercial or institutional oriented. The social reconsideration of childhood has been accompanied by a redefinition of the forms taken by cultural socialization and the role of each of its agents. How to shed light on the many changes occurring in the paths of cultural socialization: vertical and horizontal, strong/weak family and friendship ties, digital socialization, retro-socialization of parents by children, etc.?

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.

C’est pourquoi nous invitons les chercheurs et chercheuses investi-e-s dans le domaine des humanités numériques à venir présenter leurs propres réflexions, qu’elles soient associées ou non à une pratique personnelle de la conception informatique.

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.

Jack Kirby and his passage in Moselle
Historiquement, l’autobiographie en bande dessinée s’est construite contre la « vocation fictionnelle » de la production dominante (Mao, 2014), comme « instrument distinctif » permettant la mise à distance de la bande dessinée commerciale (Beaty, 2007) qu’incarnent les séries déclinant des genres établis. Ce colloque souhaite dépasser la focalisation sur cette forme historiquement et symboliquement située de l’autobiographie pour s’intéresser aux autres lieux, et aux autres temps, de « l’espace autobiographique » (Lejeune, 1975 : 41-43) en bande dessinée. Qu’en est-il de l’autobiographie – ou plus précisément de la restitution de l’expérience autobiographique – avant l’autobiographie, c’est-à-dire avant l’émergence et le durcissement d’une catégorie générique indissociable des enjeux distinctifs qui lui ont donné naissance ?

Building Audiences for the Book in an Age of Media Proliferation
By the book 3
"By the Book 3" brings together scholars from the field of publishing studies, alongside industry professionals, to examine key issues around the digital transformation of the book, as well as to discuss the developing field of publishing studies. If we examine global book production over the last 70 years, there is a clear discrepancy between the growth in population, the number of titles published, and the number of books sold and lent. This divergent trends in book production and consumption pose a set of pressing questions related to the publishing economy, marketing and skills.
