*Encounters with Partisan Media: Toward the 2022 Midterm Elections*
The SCMS Activist and Revolutionary Film and Media Special Interest Group,
along with the SIGS on Media, Science, and Technology, and Sound and Music
Studies, would like to invite members to attend a zoom roundtable on
partisan “heated” media this September 10th at 11am PST. This panel aims to
help us prepare for the Midterms and serve as a pitch for a new
transdisciplinary volume, *Cybermedia: Explorations in Science, Sound, and
Vision
<https://www.amazon.com/Cybermedia-Explorations-Science-Vision-Approaches/dp/1501357034/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3HCOAP571UGVZ&keywords=cybermedia&qid=1662619613&s=books&sprefix=cybermedia%2Cstripbooks%2C109&sr=1-1>*
(with
Bloomsbury).
The multidisciplinary panel, drawing from scholars in music, media studies,
and neuroscience, as well as industry practitioners, will explore how these
political texts operate within larger social contexts, how they work
audiovisually, how they might encourage us to talk with people who hold
different political views, and how to take action. Each presenter will
speak for 15 minutes with some Q&A, and then the floor will be open for
discussion. Below is a bit more about the roundtable and our presenters.
