Pop Cultures: Cultural and Creative Industries, Concepts and Problems


Pop Cultures: Cultural and Creative Industries, Concepts and Problems
A Global Inclusive Interdisciplinary Conference

Sunday 19th March 2023 - Monday 20th March 2023
Prague, Czech Republic

The concept of pop- or popular-culture is slippery and oddly illusory. We might think we understand it and know what it is even if we can't quite define it, but due to the fact that it is a contemporary phenomenon in full swing and related to popular and everyday activities, its meaning, production and circulation flows are quite complex. Part of what holds society together, pop culture works in large part through various forms of media to disseminate normative modes of behaviour and thought, introduces new and innovative ideas, offers inclusivity and an easily generated in-group mechanism, and can often serve as a belief system upon which to hang one's values.

Ultimately, pop culture serves as a regulating force within a cultural group as well as a glue for keeping that group cohesive. It can be seen working in ways both large and small, from the use of favorite quotes or the wearing of articles of clothing from popular visual media to the participation in new forms of dance or music, the visiting of various kinds of clubs or other establishments, an awareness of the current and most 'cool' car, and more.

Undoubtedly, media of all kinds as well as academic knowledge production are part of pop culture. However, where this might seem obvious, what about small, everyday tasks? How does a collective mechanism work differently depending on the scale in which it functions? And what are the conceptual perceptions of pop culture in each of these dimensions?

Fleet Admiral Gial Ackbar, a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise, is one striking example of pop culture. His line "It's a Trap!" in "The Return of the Jedi" (Lucasfilm, 1983) is one of the most famous and beloved quotes in the original franchise trilogy, becoming a popular internet meme and a way to elucidate how ubiquitous pop culture references are in our society. Similarly, the phrase "Run away!" from Monty Python and the Holy Grail offers a similar example. The opening song for Gilligan's Island, a popular television show in the US from the 1970s carries resonance for those who remember it fondly and who might sing the refrain "a three hour tour" over and over again, and recently Kate Bush's song "Running up that Hill" reached its highest point on the charts forty years after its release because of its use in a popular Netflix show.

Media such as TV and streaming platforms of all kinds, social media and digital platforms, podcasts, cinema, the press and others are all cultural products that form the vast universe that is pop culture. Furthermore, various fan practices and fandoms around the world construct meaning and have disputes around their favourite artists and franchises, dress as their favourite characters at conventions, and debate the imagined outcome of impossible physical competitions between fictional heroes. Is there anything more 'popular culture' than a discussion about who would win a fight between Captain America and Eleven, or about whether Sailor Moon would be a good companion for Doctor Who? If you're part of the in-groups, you'll know those references. If you aren't, you'll look them up and the in-groups will have expanded. This is the power of popular culture.

Research and analysis around pop culture includes cultural studies, adaptation studies, media studies, political economy, business and many more and the field is growing in the last few years with specialized publications and events.

In this conference we hope to begin a conversation about pop culture practices, products, and meanings, along with discussions about their consumption and circulation. From some perspectives, pop culture may seem to have its roots in Anglo-European and American perspectives but this is merely a subject position issue. Popular culture as a category occurs around the world and helps each country, and subsets within them, form their sense of identity. The scope of the Project therefore includes examinations of pop culture and its effects from around the world, both from marginalised local perspectives within Anglo-European and American pop culture, and from other pop culture milieus worldwide. We are also interested in work that examines Anglo-European and American pop culture from a transnational perspective.

What's so Special About a Progressive Connexions Event?
A fresh, friendly, dynamic format - at Progressive Connexions we are dedicated to breaking away from the stuffy, old-fashion conference formats, where endless presentations are read aloud off PowerPoints. We work to bring you an interactive format, where exchange of experience and information is alternated with captivating workshops, engaging debates and round tables, time set aside for getting to know each other and for discussing common future projects and initiatives, all in a warm, relaxed, egalitarian atmosphere.

A chance to network with international professionals - the beauty of our interdisciplinary events is that they bring together professionals from all over the world and from various fields of activity, all joined together by a shared passion. Not only will the exchange of experience, knowledge and stories be extremely valuable in itself, but we seek to create lasting, ever-growing communities around our projects, which will become a valuable resource for those belonging to them.

A chance to be part of constructing change - There is only one thing we love as much as promoting knowledge: promoting real, lasting social change by encouraging our participants to take collective action, under whichever form is most suited to their needs and expertise (policy proposals, measuring instruments, research projects, educational materials, etc.) We will support all such actions in the aftermath of the event as well, providing a platform for further discussions, advice from the experts on our Project Advisory Team and various other tools and intellectual resources, as needed.

An opportunity to discuss things that matter to you - Our events are not only about discussing how things work in the respective field, but also about how people work in that field - what are the struggles, problems and solutions professionals have found in their line of work, what are the areas where better communication among specialists is needed and how the interdisciplinary approach can help bridge those gaps and help provide answers to questions from specific areas of activity.

An unforgettable experience - When participating in a Progressive Connexions event, there is a good chance you will make some long-time friends. Our group sizes are intimate, our venues are comfortable and relaxing and our event locations are suited to the history and culture of the event.

Twenty-first International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities - A BLENDED CONFERENCE

Twenty-first International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities - A conference organized by the New Directions in the Humanities Research Network and the Sorbonne Université, Paris, France

Founded in 2003, the New Directions in the Humanities Research Network is brought together by a common interest in established traditions in the humanities while at the same time developing innovative practices and setting a renewed agenda for their future. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries.

As a Research Network, we are defined by our scope and concerns (https://thehumanities.com/about/scope-concerns) and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions (https://thehumanities.com/about/themes).

CALL FOR PAPERS

https://thehumanities.com/2023-conference/call-for-papers
Place: Online + Sorbonne Université, Paris, France
Format: A mix of live, pre-recorded, and in person (at a scale that's allowed) presentations and social interaction spaces.
Dates: 28-30 June 2023

Twenty-first International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities calls for research addressing the following conference themes and special focus:

Special Focus – Literary Landscapes: Forms of Knowledge in the Humanities

King Lear, and the whole of Romantic poetry, among numerous other references, have illustrated some of the fundamental meanings of literary landscapes. In these cases, landscapes represented the interiority of a character. But literary landscapes, in the common imagination, also represent a view of an extensive knowledge system. In these cases, for example, from the Bible to the Encyclopedia of D'Alembert, and Diderot, the "tree" has most often come to represent the hierarchy of knowledge and its link to a common origin of this knowledge system.
 
By the end of the 19th century, with the specialization of the sciences, the certainties of the hierarchy of knowledge – the singular tree – were called into question. Wilhelm Dilthey distinguished the fundamental differences between the natural sciences (Naturwissenschaften) and the human sciences (Geisteswissenschaften). And in the very construction of his novel "Bouvard et Pécuchet", Gustave Flaubert shows the fragmentation and questions the confidence in the the truth of the sciences, whether
human or natural.

As the middle of the 20th century developed, through a structuralist revolution, the reflection on the nature of the human sciences returned to the notion of "humanities," where the human is at the center. And where the hierarchy of knowledge cannot be separated from a relationship to morality.

In the 21st century, Deleuze, in contrast to the tree diagram, then develops the image of the rhizome to underline the absence of hierarchy in the relationships between the different fields of knowledge and the horizontality of its deployment.
 
Throughout this long history, new literary landscapes – as representation and reality – emerged to inform the imagination of the relationship of knowledge. And today, more recent critical orientations, such as ecocriticism, contribute new meanings to literary landscapes and emphasize the responsibility of the human being in the exploration of nature.

These are some of the many rich aspects of the relationships between literary landscapes and representations of knowledge in the humanities. At this conference, we will explore these dynamics along several axes:

- The Tree and the Rhizome 
- Representations of Landscape as Knowledge 
- Literary Cartographies of Knowledge 
- Between Knowledge and Morality 
- Literary Maps and Geo-critics 
- Ecocriticism and the Humanities

Dr. Bernard Franco, Faculté des lettres, Sorbonne Université, France

Annual Conference Themes

Theme One – CRITICAL CULTURAL STUDIES
Theme Two – COMMUNICATIONS AND LINGUISTICS STUDIES
Theme Three – LITERARY HUMANITIES
Theme Four – CIVIC, POLITICAL, AND COMMUNITY STUDIES
Theme Five – PAST AND PRESENT IN THE HUMANISTIC EDUCATION

A BLENDED FUTURE

For over 30 years, Common Ground (https://cgscholar.com/home/about) has been invested in developing technologies that seek to break down barriers of access in scholarly communication. In each phase, we've built media platforms to support spaces for interdisciplinary dialogue, before such approaches were in vogue; connected international voices, when disciplines were too often isolated in national silos; and supported an agenda of access and equality, by offering pathways and opportunities for diverse voices.

We now propose another kind of intervention - to build a scholarly communication infrastructure for a blended future (https://thehumanities.com/2023-conference/format).

Our blended model seeks to transcend physical boundaries by offering a platform to extend in-person conference content online, while ensuring online-only delegates are afforded equal participatory and experiential spaces within the platform. At the same time, the model offers participants a legacy resource to which they can return in the Event application, with access to a social space in our Community application where fellow participants can keep connected long after the conference ends.

Our blended conference experience is delivered on the CGScholar platform (https://cgscholar.com/) – developed by the Common Ground Media Lab (https://cgnetworks.org/medialab), the research and technology arm of Common Ground Research Networks.

RELATED CONFERENCES

We understand travel is difficult in the current climate. For this reason, we also offer related thematic events in our sister Research Networks that you might be able to attend in-person. This way we build for our Research Network Members flexible, and at the same time resilient, spaces for communication, engagement, and participation.

Evil Women: Women and Evil: 4th Global Interdisciplinary Conference

Evil Women: Women and Evil
4th Global Interdisciplinary Conference

Friday 10th March 2023 to Saturday 11th March 2023
Prague, Czech Republic

Few things capture the human imagination as much as evil, a notoriously slippery concept that enjoys universal recognition yet defies easy definition. As a term which is frequently used in relation to people who commit appalling crimes, it provides a useful means of describing unimaginable wickedness and is bandied about in popular culture - particularly by the tabloid press - as a way of explaining behaviours which defy belief. Evil is something 'more than' doing something morally wrong, 'more than' simply committing a crime, 'more than' an act of senseless slaughter. Defining that 'more than' is difficult: it is precisely this elusive quality which seems to make an act, or a person, evil.

In many cultures, women have been long suspected as the source of sundry human miseries, however basic to society they may be. While ideals of purity and dedication to family have been exalted and feminine beauty lauded, women have been viewed as embodying sinister forces of evil. Mistrusted as seductive and beguiling, women are often thought of as vengeful, manipulative and even malevolent. In grappling with our understanding of what it is to be 'evil', the project aims to shine a spotlight on this dark area of the human condition and explore the possible sources of the fear and resentment of women. Women are not expected to behave in aberrant or illegal ways, and we will consider the structural and systemic reasons for the heightened interest, repulsion, condemnation - and even hatred - that feminine transgression generates. Women are condemned not only for what they do but also for what they fail to do; those who harbour, lie for and couple with nefarious men are seen to have failed in their duty as gatekeepers of male morality. Where women themselves are accused of evil they are often judged more harshly than their male counterparts, as evil acts committed by women are seen to transgress not just legal and moral boundaries but also those imposed by gender.

Key Topics
Against this backdrop, this conference will explore the various conjunctions between evil, women and the feminine. We invite participants to explore evil women/women and evil from the full range of disciplinary, professional, and social perspectives. The aim is to generate an inclusive dialogue involving researchers, practitioners, artists, activists, legal professionals, clinicians, social workers, representatives from the voluntary sector, individuals whose lives have been impacted by feminine evil, and others with an interest in the field. Topics for discussion include, but are not restricted to:

- Representations of women and evil in popular culture, literature and history
- Historical and changing definitions of what constitutes evil behaviour in women
- Legal, social and cultural responses to evil women
- Postnatal depression and postpuerperal psychosis
- Motherhood, matricide and infanticide
- The intersectionality of feminine evil
- Mental illness and personality disorders
- The sexualization of female violence - foxy boxing, video games, film and television
- How women respond to evil
- 'Feminazis'
- Violence, hysteria and the 'wandering womb'
- Female serial killers
- Female psychopaths
- Girl gangs
- 'Mean girl' school cliques
- Temptresses, tricksters and tarts
- Wicked stepmothers and evil queens
- Feminine perversions
- Women and the abject
- Menstruation: women and blood
- Female myths and icons - Delilah, Lilith, Medea, Medusa, Clytemnestra, the Harpies and the
- Femme Fatale
- The bitch
- Women and power
- Women, beauty and evil
- Vampires, witches and sirens
- Women as victims of evil
- Case studies

We particularly welcome creative responses to the subject, such as poetry/prose, short film screenings/original drama, installations, and alternative presentation styles that engage the audience and foster debate.
