On 13-15 August 2015, the 22nd Nordic conference on media and communication research was held in Denmark. It took place at the Humanities Campus Amager, University of Copenhagen. The Department of Media, Cognition and Communication was the host for the NordMedia conference organised by Associate Professor Christa Lykke Christensen and Professor Anne Jerslev and in collaboration with the Section of Film, Media and Communication. The conference theme was Media Presence – Mobile Modernities. The theme was meant to open up discussions on the changing conditions of human interaction and our changing sense of presence in the modern mediatised world. Ubiquitous media are transforming our cultural and social environments, thus influencing the ways in which we interact both in smaller groups and as participants in the wider society. Digital and mobile media enable people to be virtually co-present in a variety of contexts, irrespective of their physical location. This new media environment is likely to influence both the individual’s sense of presence and our common ability to construct and maintain social relationships. Moreover, the conference theme was meant to bring into focus discussions on how the emerging environment of ubiquitous media has a significant potential for improving democratic participation, for creating new and diverse forms of artistic expressions, and for strengthening social ties across time and space. In order to assess these potentials, however, it remains important to frame and study the present media environment from a historical perspective. From a current perspective, it is further essential to consider the challenges posed by new media, which can fragment public spheres, deepen social divisions, and extend social control. The uses of media for democratic, artistic, and innovative social purposes depend more than ever on the development of appropriate global as well as national regulatory frameworks, on media literacies from cradle to grave, and on the capacity of individuals to manage their own presence in the media.

媒体存在–移动现代性

2015年8月13日至15日，第22届北欧媒体与传播研究会议在丹麦举行。它在哥本哈根大学阿玛格尔人文校园举行。媒体，认知和传播学系是由Christa Lykke Christensen副教授和Anne Jerslev教授与电影，媒体和传播学系合作组织的NordMedia会议的主持人。会议的主题是媒体存在-移动现代性。该主题旨在就人类互动不断变化的条件以及我们在现代中介世界中不断变化的存在感展开讨论。无处不在的媒体正在改变我们的文化和社会环境，从而影响我们在较小的群体中以及作为更广泛的社会参与者的互动方式。数字和移动媒体使人们可以在各种环境中虚拟地共同呈现，而不论他们的地理位置如何。这种新的媒体环境可能会影响个人的存在感以及我们建立和维持社会关系的共同能力。此外，会议主题旨在就无处不在的媒体的新兴环境如何在改善民主参与，创造新颖多样的艺术表现形式以及加强跨时空的社会联系方面具有巨大潜力进行讨论。但是，为了评估这些潜力，从历史的角度来构架和研究当前的媒体环境仍然很重要。从当前的角度来看，进一步考虑新媒体带来的挑战至关重要，可以分散公共领域，加深社会分化并扩展社会控制。将媒体用于民主，艺术和创新的社会目的比以往任何时候都更加依赖于适当的全球和国家监管框架的发展，从摇篮到坟墓的媒体素养以及个人管理自己的存在的能力。媒体。
