Уважаемые коллеги!
Да и в принципе: To Whom It May Concern!
Родилась в беспокойных и обеспокоенных насущными проблемами тематической Интернет-коммуникации, инстигированной рецепцией артефактов масс-культуры - сиречь, фандома - головах (моей и моей коллеги) идея свести в некое информативно-когнитивное целое, систематизировать, а также, открыть для продуктивной дисскусии насущные проблемы сего сегмента коммуникативной деятельности человества на заре третьего тысячелетия.
А посему, вызрела концептиция специфической тематической он-лайн конференции.
К участию приглашаются все желающие, заинтересованные в плодотворной дискуссии.
Платформой для непосредсвенной синхронизации дискуссии послужит специализированный форум. Исходные данные будут сообщены участникам дополнительно.
По вопросам предварительной подачи заявок/тезисов публикации, организационным и дискуссионным вопросам и т.п. - просьба обращаться по адресу idicmc@gmail.com или на http://idicmc.ucoz.com/ (официальный сайт конференции + дискуссионный форум).

Forum Description and Manifest:
Vast and varied paradigm of contemporary mass-culture evokes a dynamic, expressive and diverse cognitive, communicative and cultural feedback, constituting thus an integrated interactive discourse otherwise known as fandom. While the scope of practices for fannish indulgement have been functionally employed worldwide for quite a while, the subject matter of fandom as an interactive communicative medium and ambient has been heretofore marginalized by theoretical mainstream of modern humanities, social science and cultural anthropology. The objective of First Interdisciplinary Conference-Forum “Interactive Discourse of Contemporary Mass Culture: Literature, TV, Cinema” is to supply a coherent framework for key communicative and interactive aspects and parameters of fandom construction and dynamics. Thematic scope of the forum presupposes an interdisciplinary approach of the phenomenon in question in order to attain comprehensive results that would facilitate an integrated vision of the interactive communicative environment of modern mass-culture in the expanse of its forms.
