ZeMKI-News (2)

In the autumn of 2025, the Centre for Media, Communication and Information Research (ZeMKI) at the University of Bremen welcomes Dr. Berber Hagedoorn as a Visiting Research Fellow.

On October 20, 2025, ZeMKI member Dr. Philip Sinner was invited by Prof. Dr. Bram Constandt and Prof. Dr. Liselot Hudders (UGent, Belgium) to participate as an expert in a co-creation session of the GAMSPON project in Brussels.

Today's get-together at the Bremen Press-Club marks the start of the celebrations for ZeMKI's 20th anniversary and provides an opportunity for people to meet, exchange ideas, and reminisce together.

Under the title “From Analyses of the Present to Futuring”, the DFG Research Unit Communicative AI (ComAI) together with the Section for Sociology of Knowledge of the German Sociological Association (DGS) invites submissions for an interdisciplinary workshop on methods of future-oriented generation of practice and knowledge.

This year’s theme is “Video Games and Our Futures.” Currently in 21st Century society, we face a range of complex issues and wide-sweeping changes and challenges, ranging from radical political and economic shifts, to the implications of climate change and related environmental threats, migration, the impacts of wars, and the long legacies and effects of colonialism, gender inequities and other related power imbalances.

In a recent article in i2b-express (a Bremen-based journal for innovation in the metropolitan region), ZeMKI member Alex Krause explains what makes the molo platform so special.

The PhD Program at ZeMKI will conduct Exposé Workshops for First Year PhD Candidates this November.

From September 28 to October 2, 2025, a group of ZeMKI PhD students participated in a writing retreat on the island of Spiekeroog, located in the Wadden Sea National Park.
