It seeks to explore reflections on bodies in the arts and media in the digital age.

Papers may focus on (but are not limited to) the following themes:

  • Representations and discourses
  • Reception/uses
  • Platform design and the co-construction dynamics of bodily norms
  • Performance in the digital age
  • Epistemology, methods, and ethics
