SUMMARY:Digital Mediation and Working Through in Times of Denial\, Disavowal and Splitting: On the Un/Representable
DESCRIPTION:An International Workshop \nOrganised by Dr Orit Dudai and Assoc. Prof. Jacob Johanssen – Supported by the Association for Psychosocial Studies \nThe goal of this workshop is for presenters to share work-in-progress and engage in collegial discussion with each other and attendees. Places are\, therefore\, limited. \nWe live in a time that is characterised by increasing political polarisation\, fake news\, conspiracy theories and other forms of extremism. Recent political developments\, such as the post-Trump moment\, have been credited with an increase in political paranoia and conspiracy theories that have spread far and wide on the internet. Social media such as Facebook\, Twitter or Instagram exhibit high levels of misogyny\, sexism and racism and are described as lacking in empathy\, compassion and love. Traditional media\, such as tabloid and broadsheet journalism or television news\, also find themselves part of “culture wars” and torn between different political positions. \nThis symposium will explore what role psychoanalysis in combination with other disciplines\, such as media and communication studies\, philosophy and sociology\, can play in analysing such phenomena\, as well as finding possible solutions for them. \nDo we need a new form of empathy or spirituality? To what extent are moments of denial\, disavowal and polarization necessary? Can they revitalize political culture and society more generally? What are their limits? What solutions can be found? How are they intrinsically connected to questions of digital mediation and representation? How are they represented in film and popular culture? What tensions are revealed between what can be represented and what remains unrepresentable? \n  \nSpeakers \nDr Jack Black (Sheffield Hallam University) \nDr Alfie Bown (Royal Holloway University) \nDr Orit Dudai (Kibbutzim College of Education\, Technology and the Arts) \nAssoc. Professor Jon Hackett (St. Mary’s University) \nAssoc. Professor Jacob Johanssen (St. Mary’s University) \nDr Anthony Faramelli (Goldsmiths) \nDr Thi Gammon (Independent Scholar) \nDr Steffen Krüger (University of Oslo) \nDr Em. Sandra Meiri (Open University\, Israel) \nDr Mark Murphy (Independent Scholar) \nProfessor Raya Morag (The Hebrew University) \nProfessor Candida Yates (Bournemouth University)
