Introduction
The GAMER 2026 Conference, titled “Digital Technologies and Gender in Arts and Media: Creation, Representations, Reception”, will be held on March 12–13, 2026, at Sorbonne Nouvelle University, Paris. Organized by the Institute of Communication and Media in collaboration with several academic and research entities, the event invites critical engagement with the ways digital technologies intersect with gender across media and art landscapes.
Aims and Context
As digital platforms reshape the cultural and artistic terrain, this conference foregrounds the enduring inequalities faced by women and gender minorities. From representation in journalism to visibility in the arts, and from algorithmic bias to digital activism, the GAMER Conference seeks to interrogate how gender norms are reproduced, contested, and reimagined in the digital realm.
The initiative highlights the role of digital technologies in both enabling and constraining gendered expressions, and it invites scholars to explore how feminist, queer, and decolonial frameworks can reshape our understanding of media and art in contemporary society.
