Dear all,

This is a reminder, in a week there's the deadline for this year's NSU and our circle "cybioses" (on the 12th of may). The event is on the 27th of july and lasts till the 3th of august.

Below is the previous email with all the details and the link to our website. Perhaps it's useful that we have slots for scholarships/grants (5 of them). These will cover the costs of attending, but not your travel. Please provide a motivation. For more information see: Scholarship and Grant Program: Information for Applicants – Nordic Summer University Please note that our deadline for applications is the same as the deadline for abstracts (we need a little time to get it organized)

The symposium is part of the Nordic Summer University (NSU), which organizes Nordic networks for interdisciplinary study and research, pioneering topics like technology, environmentalism, feminism within its tradition (see www.nsuweb.org). During the summer symposium there are many different symposia that are held at the same location, where all participants stay during its entire duration (see the link above for more information and the costs).

Deadline for Abstract Submission: Monday the 12th of May, 2023.

Date & Place of the Symposium: July 27th– August 3th, 2023, Palanga Lithuania

We invite scholars, artists, students, technologists, theorists and other professionals working or writing on topics related to "waste" to submit. Are approaches to "waste" as a meaningful intellectual category. Accordingly, the title "What a waste", begs the question of how to act with a less obvious lack of care and to act with purpose, which also extends to (our own) intellectual concerns and related practices. Which ones should have value, which should not? How do we decide what about art, theory and tékhnē are a waste, and what not?

We welcome experimental approaches to presenting and collaborating and we hope this topic will deepen and re-new our collaboration, with previous and new participants. Feel free to contact us if you are wondering how you would fit in.

Please send your abstracts with a short motivation letter and bio to us by the 12th of May to eric.deibel@nsuweb.org. And, please, help us spread the word.

We look forward to your submissions and ask questions if you have them,

Eric Deibel, (Assistant Professor/Lecturer, Bilkent University STS program),

also on behalf of:

Palle Dahlstedt (Professor of Interaction Design, University of Gothenburg / Chalmers) and

Maru Mushtrieva (Researcher and text- and sound-artist with a background in literature and based between Berlin and Brussels.)
