Call for Presentations: Data|Media|Digital Symposium

Description
We invite submissions from UO graduate students for 15-minute presentations on any aspect of data, media, or digital studies for a symposium in the UO Knight Library DREAM Lab on Friday, April 19, week 3 of the spring term at the Data|Media|Digital Symposium.

D|M|D is an opportunity to showcase the exciting multidisciplinary work produced by graduate students across campus. We welcome student participants to attend all of the symposium’s panel sessions to the extent their schedules allow. In addition to panels, we will have informal discussions over food and drinks, a hosted lunch, and presentations by UO faculty.

Eligibility

Presentations can be based on work in progress or research and work in the final stages of development. Proposals should specify clear scholarly or pedagogical goals and should articulate how the design or argument of a data/media/digital project might address those goals.

Any kind of data, media, or digital studies project is welcome. If you aren’t sure if your project fits our call, then it probably does, but please get in touch, and we can offer you our guidance.

Application 
Enter your submission at https://bit.ly/nmcc-dmd by 11:59 p.m. PT on Tuesday, January 30, week 4 of the winter term. The submission form will request an abstract of your proposed presentation and basic information, including any relevant research experience.

Decisions about all submissions will be shared in early February. We look forward to sustaining cross-disciplinary conversations and building an inter-departmental community at the UO.
