> International conference on social media marketing and Internet memes
> April 12th + 13th

> After "print/pixel" in 2009, viralcommunication.nl is the second

>
> One the one hand, advertising and marketing are the true operating
> systems behind the seemingly free "Web 2.0", and the real driving  
> forces
> of social networks like Facebook. On the other, the 'social media'
> paradigm shift may impact their industry just as much as the music
> industry had been hit by the mp3 revolution. Social media marketing  
> and
> viral communication tap into virtually every issue of contemporary  
> media
> work and communication culture. Yet it remains to be seen - and
> discussed during this conference - whether growing concerns over  
> privacy
> and control are changing the trend.
>
> The conference will cover, among others, social networks
> and their impact on advertising and political communication, the Web  
> 2.0
> Suicide Machine and other counter-memes and the viral culture of  
> 4chan and
> imageboards.
>
> Speakers: Bill Wasik (USA, inventor of Flashmobs, senior editor
> Harper's), Douglas Rushkoff (USA, media theoretician), Marc Schwieger
> (Germany, social media specialist, former creative director Scholz &
> Friends), Gordan Savicic (Austria/Rotterdam, developer of the Web 2.0
> Suicide Machine), Thomas Knuewer (Germany, economic journalist and
> blogger for "Indiskretion Ehrensache"), Tim Hwang (USA, co-organizer  
> ROFLCON),
> speakers from Rotterdam-based companies IN10 and 105, and many more.  
> The
> complete programme is available on http://viralcommunication.nl

> The conference consists of public sessions at the Piet Zwart Institute
> from 11-17hrs. These can be freely attended by everyone. In addition,
> there will be roundtable evening sessions for media professionals in

>> 'Crisis and Critique': Historical Materialism Annual London Conference  
>> 2010,
>> 
>> Central London, Thursday 11th to Sunday 14th November*
>> 
>> Call for Papers
>> 
>> Submission and Abstract Deadline: 1 June 2010
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> Notwithstanding repeated invocations of the ?green shoots of  
>> recovery?, the effects of the economic crisis that began in 2008  
>> continue to be felt around the world. While some central tenets of the  
>> neoliberal project have been called into question, bank bailouts, cuts  
>> to public services and attacks on working people's lives demonstrate  
>> that the ruling order remains capable of imposing its agenda. Many  
>> significant Marxist analyses have already been produced of the  
>> origins, forms and prospects of the crisis, and we look forward to  
>> furthering these debates at HM London 2010. We also aim to encourage  
>> dialogue between the critique of political economy and other modes of  
>> criticism ? ideological, political, aesthetic, philosophical ? central  
>> to the Marxist tradition.
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> In the 1930s, Walter Benjamin and Bertolt Brecht projected a journal  
>> to be called ?Crisis and Critique?. In very different times, but in a  
>> similar spirit, HM London 2010 aims to serve as a forum for dialogue,  
>> interaction and debate between different strands of critical-Marxist  
>> theory. Whether their focus is the study of the capitalist mode of  
>> production's theoretical and practical foundations, the unmasking of  
>> its ideological forms of legitimation or its political negation, we  
>> are convinced that a renewed and politically effective Marxism will  
>> need to rely on all the resources of critique in the years ahead.  
>> Crises produce periods of ideological and political uncertainty. They  
>> are moments that put into question established cognitive and  
>> disciplinary compartmentalisations, and require a recomposition at the  
>> level of both theory and practice. HM London 2010 hopes to contribute  
>> to a broader dialogue on the Left aimed at such a recomposition, one  
>> of whose prerequisites remains the young Marx?s call for the ?ruthless  
>> criticism of all that exists?.
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> We are seeking papers that respond to the current crisis from a range  
>> of Marxist perspectives, but also submissions that try to think about  
>> crisis and critique in their widest ramifications. HM will also  
>> consider proposals on themes and topics of interest to critical- 
>> Marxist theory not directly linked to the call for papers (we  
>> particularly welcome contributions on non-Western Marxism and on  
>> empirical enquiries employing Marxist methods).
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> While Historical Materialism is happy to receive proposals for panels,  
>> the editorial board reserves the right to change the composition of  
>> panels or to reject individual papers from panel proposals. We also  
>> expect all participants to attend the whole conference and not simply  
>> make ?cameo? appearances. We cannot accommodate special requests for  
>> specific slots or days, except in highly exceptional circumstances.
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> *Please note that, in order to allow for expected demand, this year  
>> the conference will be three and a half days? long, starting on the  
>> Thursday afternoon.
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> Please submit a title and abstract of between 200 and 300 words by  
>> registering at http://www.historicalmaterialism.org/conferences/annual7/submit 
>>   by 1 June 2010
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> Possible themes include:
>> 
>>         ?       Crisis and left recomposition
>> 
>>         ?       Critique and crisis in the global south
>> 
>>         ?       Anti-racist critique
>> 
>>         ?       Marxist and non-Marxist theories of crisis
>> 
>>         ?       Capitalist and anti-capitalist uses of the crisis
>> 
>>         ?       Global dimensions of the crisis

> social, technical and content-related topics.
>
> September 6th is the main Academic day, featuring the following  
> themes:
>
> Social Media
> "Get social!" Social media and Web 2.0 technologies are applied in  
> ever diverse practices both
> in private and public communities. Totally new business models are  
> emerging, traditional
> communication and expression modalities are challenged, and new  
> practices are constructed
> in the collaborative, interactive media space.
>
> Ambient and Ubiquitous Media
> "The medium is the message!" - This conference track focuses on the  
> definition of ambient
> and ubiquitous media with a cross-disciplinary viewpoint: ambient  
> media between technology,
> art, and content. The focus of this track is on applications,  
> theory, art-works, mixed reality
> concepts, the Web 3.0, and user experiences that make ubiquitous and  
> ambient media tick.
>
> Digital Games
> The culture and business of digital games is becoming increasingly  
> varied. The current trends
> range from novel interface innovations and digital distribution  
> channels to social game dynamics
> and player-generated content. The games track is open for  
> theoretical works, empirical case
> studies and constructive projects.
>
> Open Source
> Open source software is gaining momentum in several forms. In  
> addition to the huge increase in
> the number of open source projects started and the remarkable rise  
> of FLOSS adoption by companies,
> new models of participation in the movement are emerging rapidly.
>
> Media Business, Media Production and Media Management
> Media business and media management face the challenges of the  
> emergence of new forms of digital
> media. This theme focuses on business studies, policies, practices,  
> and organizational structure
> of media firms. It discusses competition, patterns of media usage,  
> advertising models, and how
> traditional media can cope with the challenges coming from digital  
> media focusing on media business
> and media management issues.
>
>
> In addition, special academic sessions (e.g. tutorials,  
> demonstrations, workshops, and
> multidisciplinary sessions) will be held on Oct 7th & 8th, parallel  
> to the MindTrek business
> conference.  Academic speakers and authors are warmly welcome to  
> attend the business conference
> tracks as part of the academic conference fee during these days as  
> well.

> The MindTrek Association hosts MindTrek as a yearly conference,  
> where the Academic MindTrek conference
> has been a part of this unique set of events comprising  
> competitions, world famous keynote speakers,
> plenary sessions, media festivals, and workshops since 1997. It is a  
> meeting place where experts and

Workshop Mike Figgis



British film maker Mike Figgis will teach a workshop from 28 ? 30 May  
at Rialto in Amsterdam called ?Digitial Camera?. Figgis is invited  
by the Mediafonds, the Performing Arts Fund NL and the Binger Filmlab  
in relation to the project Point Taken.
This cross disciplinary dance film project initiated by the Mediafonds  
and the Performing Arts Fund NL, in cooperation with Cinedans and the  
NPS gives four teams of choreographers and film makers the chance to  
realize a short dance film. The premiere will take place in December  
during Cinedans and the films will be broadcast bij the NPS. Selected  
filmmakers will take part of the three-day film workshop by Mike Figgis.
Participation of this workshop is also possible for Binger students,  
independent filmmakers, choreographers and other interested people.
Mike Figgis, director of Leaving Las Vegas, directed in 2000 the  
unique film Timecode.
Four camera operators filmed simultaneous in 95 minute takes 35  
actors, including Holly Hunter, Selma Hayek and Stellan Skarsgard.  
There was no conventional film script, the actors only got a rough  
idea about the storylines, the takes were not edited.
Choreography and formal music composition were the only coordinators  
in this complex adventure that was shown split screen as a four-fold  
simultaneous composition. During the workshop Mike Figgis will be  
analyzing 4 different versions of Timecode.
