Panel

Call for papers for a 4S 2026 panel in Toronto on “AI as a performative phenomenon,” inviting abstracts by 30 April 2026.

What a start into the academic week: I submitted to #Aoir2026 (🤞), I filed a grant application for #stsCH2027 (the bi-annual Swiss #STS conference I will be hosting at the University of Fribourg), and I learned that our #4s open panel for Toronto was accepted 🙌
