Aaa! I had an open panel for 4S 2026 (the conference for the Society for Social Studies of Science) approved. My topic, I shit you not, is called “Beyond the Torment Nexus: Science Fiction and the Conditions of Possibility” Submissions are open until April 30th! 4sonline.org/meeting.php #4S #STS #SF
There were rather long TMO reviews in the MLR in the past. Typically accompanied with technical issues, last year the #4s were calling the TMO and then running the phone out to the center referee sometimes. NOT a good look.

Ok anyone doing any cool panels at #4S that I can jump onto? My current project is an ethnography of the intersection of UX and AI (and conversation design). I’ve just been swamped and forgot to ask around until now! @4sweb.bsky.social
Those #4s, they're kinda good
2026 marks the 10 year anniversary of #Brexit. The disinformation era had arrived. What have we learned since then?
@carolecadwalla.bsky.social, @disinfo.eu and @4sweb.bsky.social, any interest in collaborating on an set of panels on this theme?

Why are there 2 #4s and only 6facts?

Fantastic Four Fanfare #4S
Sue's spotlight gets to show off her inventive powers and fierce maternal instincts. A touching moment with Harvey, then stopping the Circus with a firm stare (and a forcefield), and finally witnessing a Namor wrestling smackdown complete with singlets. Great issue.
Thats #4s play
Loved Jessica O'Reilly’s panels at #4s Seattle.
Carrying with me an expanded sense of ice as a great ecological storyteller - telling of the deep time & ecological futures of Earth, & a wider universe of bodies transforming through the same processes…

Back from #4S conference!
Met amazing folks and presented an extension of my Tonii project that questions how we build a practice towards enacting values we aspire to embody, that are foundational to a more human experience. This involved creating an altar and movement ritual in augmented reality.
thank you everyone who came to the TECH/MONEY panel series yesterday at #4S! if you didnt get a sticker and want one, come find me, i have so many and they are all very shiny!
At #4S in Seattle? Come listen to my talk on existential media, Arendt and AI in room 333 at the Summit 1:30 PM.
really really persuasive argument by @thaophan.bsky.social at #4S
I’d be happy to think through and discuss #DataRescue as a form of anticipatory maintenance with anyone who is interest at this year’s #4S!
I had to leave #4S early due bad air quality, but if you're around and concerned about covid (levels are high), you find this spray at the local Walgreens: www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
Mi agenda para hoy #4S .
#ChamartínAvanza .
I'm at Seattle 4S! I'll be part of the "Risks of 'Social Model Collapse' in the Face of Scientific and Technological Advances" panel Friday morning, discussing online community governance of AI-generated content. Would love to meet others studying AI's impact on the info ecosystem!
#STS #4S
Heading to #4s #4S2025 anyone else on the CLT - Seattle flight arriving at 6.41pm? Just checking in case we can share a cab? Looking forward to this!
@4sweb.bsky.social hey #4S, is there any way to show the programme in a different time zone?
They have #4s, an sp15, a uni 1, and I think a challenge (that one was new when I was there last year.) They'll all make sense once you get to know them!
#4S in Seattle is only a few weeks away and I will be joining a brilliant group of people for one of the threaded keynotes. Ours is on Political Water 💧🧊🌊🚰🐠 There will be opportunities for online conversation, hope some of you can join! @4sweb.bsky.social

I'll take all the #4s you got 😊😁
Oh, nice! Good on you for grabbing one of the last ten hardcover #4s we have. Hope you enjoy the hell out of both.
