Convergence is an international peer-reviewed academic journal which was set up in 1995 to address the creative, social, political and pedagogical issues raised by the advent of what were then ‘emergent’ new media technologies. More than 20 years later we see the intense and ubiquitous integration and absorption of these technologies into almost every aspect of our everyday cultural, social, creative and political lives.

Topics include:

  • Convergent media: histories, cross-cultural/international contexts, emergent products
  • Digital creative production (music, television, art, photography, cinema, kinetic media)
  • Games, gaming and ludic technologies
  • Digital media distribution
  • Mobile media/content
  • Extended Realities (XR) – Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and Mixed Reality
  • Local and Global Media Regulation and Infrastructure (e.g. Intellectual Property (IP), censorship, policy, platforms)
  • Diversity, Inclusion and representational politics
  • New techno-subjects of the anthropocene – Algorithmic, Artificial Intelligence, Artificial Life
  • Democratisation of the digital economy: co-production, open access and block chain and cryptocurrency
  • Distributed data, networked subjects and vulnerable publics
