We welcome submissions in a variety of formats, including papers, lecture-performances, artistic interventions, and workshops.

Applicants are invited to submit a 500-word abstract under one of the conference tracks by March, 15th 2025. If no track is selected, the conference organizers will assign the submission to the most appropriate track.

All submissions will undergo a double-blind peer review. Accepted abstracts will be included in the conference program and presented at the event.

Following the conference, authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to submit a full paper (maximum 4,000 words, including references). A formal call for papers will be announced accordingly.

A participation fee is required for accepted submissions and will be announced at a later stage. A secure payment gateway will be provided accordingly. Unfortunately, POM is unable to offer financial support.
