SUMMARY:Global Media Education Summit 2023 Keynote by Wendy Hui Kyong Chun and Amy Harris
DESCRIPTION:KEYNOTE: How to Sense the Future: Global Climate Change and Media Edu-cologies – Wendy Hui Kyong Chun and Amy Harris \nGlobal climate change has been predicted for at least a century\, and yet little has been changed in response. This inaction has revealed the importance and inadequacy of knowledge: at first\, many scientists and activists believed that simply educating the public would be enough\, but the continuing lack of action and the debates over the existence and cause of global climate change – even after many predictions have materialised – has proven otherwise. Although there are many reasons for this failure to act – such as concerted political efforts to sow fear\, uncertainty\, and doubt – our talk explores the difficulty of scale and attempts to overcome it. A fundamental difficulty is the fact that we experience weather\, not climate: climate is an abstraction based on global inputs and dynamics that seem impervious to individual actions. To register the intricate and interwoven impact of climate change\, we turn to arts-based interventions that deploy affectively intense hyper-local experiences. Ranging from individual VR experiences\, to large scale art installations\, they reveal how the senses can be deployed to create affective and effective relationships with our future world. \nThe Global Media Education Summit (MES) brings together an international network of researchers\, educators\, and practitioners across all aspects of media education\, media and digital literacies\, youth media production and media and technology in education. As the leading global showcase for research\, pedagogy\, and innovation\, MES explores the changing currents across media education and media literacy communities around the world. \nHeld at Harbour Centre\, Simon Fraser University\, Vancouver\, Canada on March 2nd – 4th 2023 – in person\, with virtual panels. \nMore information\, including registration here.
