"When we 'were' posthuman. Scanning our lost future?", Rossella Ciocca's plenary, is keeping #aia32 participants on the edge of their seats, both with her words and her visuals!

. @carolosullivan.bsky.social 's plenary, "Researching Audiences for Subtitled Media in the UK," encourages #aia32 participants to reflect on the different audience attitudes and behaviours toward subtitling. The room is packed, and we are all captivated by this insightful and entertaining talk.

Deeply moved by the reading of this poem by Refaat Alareer at the opening of #AIA32.

AIA32 @aia32.bsky.social · 27d

The poem "If I Must Die" by Palestinian writer Refaat Alareer is read as a moment of collective silent reflection on the killing of Palestinians. #aia32 #stayhuman

#AIA32 is in 3 DAYS!! Weather info: Conference days are going to be sunny, but nights in Torino can be a bit chilly. The temperature in university rooms might be a bit cool, too, especially if the A/C is on.

Make sure to pack some layers so you stay comfortable. Looking forward to seeing you all!
