For SLSA 2019, we want to turn our attention towards practices that engage with a world out of balance. We are especially interested in creative, speculative, embodied, and other experimental engagements that take place at the margins of art, science, and literature.<\/h3>\n<p>A few of the concerns we imagine might be addressed at SLSA 2019 include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How new aesthetics and ethics of social engagement arise within individual lives and specific communities of practice<\/li>\n<li>How speculative practices tangle with reigning ideals of the utopic, communitarian, and transcendental<\/li>\n<li>How experimental practices may require working in stealth mode<\/li>\n<li>How marginal practices are defined as such, and how that can be changed<\/li>\n<li>How social media reframes the errors, failures, and missteps of experimentation as well as the possibilities of success<\/li>\n<li>How experimental practices differ from other forms of knowledge-building or making<\/li>\n<li>How counter-dominant forms and practices are attenuated or even flipped through normalization<\/li>\n<li>How engagement avoids such pitfalls as addressing symptoms rather than causes, or devolving into propaganda<\/li>\n<li>How practices and ideas written off by those in power as minor, obsolete, trivial, narrow, or crazy find a toehold<\/li>\n<li>How it might be necessary to change how we teach art, science, and literature to future generations<\/li>\n<li>How it is possible to transformatively address the center from the periphery<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/easychair.org\/conferences\/?conf=slsa19\">SUBMISSION LINK<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>https:\/\/easychair.org\/conferences\/?conf=slsa19<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>DEADLINE: MAY 15, 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><del>MAY 01, 2019 :\u00a0<\/del><\/h4>\n<pre><em>Please note that we have extended our deadline to May 15.\u00a0<\/em><\/pre>\n<p>Submissions for SLSA 2019 will be accepted in three categories:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Individual papers and pre-organized panels<\/li>\n<li>Workshops, roundtables, and unique events<\/li>\n<li>A special art opportunity \u2014 see &#8220;Special Art Opportunity&#8221; in the menu for details<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For <strong>individual papers<\/strong><u>,<\/u>\u00a0please submit a 300-word abstract along with title and affiliation.<\/p>\n<p>Optionally, up to four papers may be <strong>pre-organized into panels<\/strong>.
