20 Feb 2026 CFP: Session @ RGS London: Geographies of Concealment: Temporary Urban Barriers of Masking, Covering, and Hiding

Royal Geographical Society, London 1-4 September 2026

This panel focuses on barriers as affective infrastructural tools (Bosworth, 2023; Henderson, 2008) that physically, visually, and behaviorally establish a temporary relation of masking, covering, or hiding space in the city. Through varying materialities, opacities, and scales, barriers impose a vertical limit that redirects movement, interrupts sightlines, and reshapes everyday spatial politics.

21 Feb 2026 ŠUM Journal - #27 & #28 - ‘Cults’

Paid opportunity (300 EUR)

This open call investigates how the figure of the cult allows us to think more rigorously about the formation, transmission, and normalization of belief. How do minimal collectives produce epistemological shifts that later appear as naturalized worldviews? What does the cult reveal about the memetic power of ideas, their infectious capacity, and the conditions under which they become dominant?

We invite contributions that engage with conspiracy / occultism as a historical, aesthetic, political, and epistemological structure—prior to, during, or beyond the moment of total contagion—and that examine its role in shaping contemporary culture and its possible futures.

23 Feb 2026 CFP: ACH (Association for computers and the humanities) Conference 2026: Emergence/ia

Virtual conference, 24-26 June 2026

Papers accepted in EN, ES

ACH 2026 explores how we create and collaborate through moments of exigency in a bilingual, virtual conference. In Spanish, emergencia can mean both “emergence” and “emergency.” This dual meaning serves as our starting point. While emergence/ia speaks to growth, connection, and creation, emergency/ia signals moments of urgency that demand care, response, and transformation. ACH 2026 seeks to ask: What forms of knowledge creation in the digital humanities (broadly defined) are emerging from pressing challenges across the Americas? How do digital humanists respond to emergencies through knowledge creation, while being mindful of ramifications of computing for environmental crises? What insights do themes of transnationalism and solidarity reveal across the Americas about our work and communities, and the role of emerging technology in shaping both?

26 Feb 2026 Funding: Research Revival Fund

Research Revival is an experimental fund restoring neglected, illegible, or prematurely dismissed research to active circulation.
