The Art & Politics of Netporn II

Call for contributions
Deadline: 30/11/2006

Open Call for Contributions

deadline November 30

In June 2007 the second international academic conference on internet pornography will take place in Amsterdam. We are currently looking for academics that are working on this subject and would like to present their work for an international audience.

In October of 2005 the Institute of Network Cultures, in collaboration with Katrien Jacobs and Matteo Pasquinelli, hosted the first edition: ‘The Art & Politics of Netporn.’ Some of the speakers were: Mark Dery, Mikita Brottman and Susanna Paasonen. Subjects ranged from the sexual grotesque to feminist matters to realcore and to the issue of online censorship. For more information about this conference you can visit our website: www.networkcultures.org/netporn.

For our second conference writers, critics and people from the industry will talk about their work, research and findings in the field. Next to that, there will be an exhibition and a night with artistic performances.

The topics for the next conference will be:

- the revolution of alt pornography
- porn niches and “trans” gender
- globalization of porn and the influence of ethnic minorities
- politics of netporn: censorship, new rights and nightmares.

If you think your work is suitable, please send us an abstract of approx. 200 words before November 30 to: marije at networkcultures.org The first conference was very successfull and made it possible for people to meet each other and exchange views on this topic that is still a taboo. We are looking forward to a second edition with fresh faces and new insights.
