        Subject: Call for Participation] 🇧🇷 Digital Methods in Brazil – Fostering Dialogue and Connection

Dear colleagues,

Here is an invitation that fosters dialogue and connection about the
current state of digital methods for Internet research in Brazil 🇧🇷
This hybrid event will occur on 31 January 2025 from 2 pm to 4:15 pm in
room FWB 1.11 at the Franklin-Wilkins Building, Waterloo Campus, King's
College London.

What are the emerging creative methods that leverage the web, its
technologies and data to address research problems? Which digital
methods are being implemented, and for what purpose? What are their
relevance and broader implications for studying digital media and
culture? Who is developing research software to study digital culture?

This roundtable will address these questions and what one can understand
as “methods” when advancing research with the web as a methodological
landscape. In short, the panellists will discuss mapping initiatives and
labs across five Brazilian regions, the convergences and possibilities
of connecting digital methods with traditional (Digital) Media and
Communication Studies schools, and a brief history of software
development for digital methods research in Brazil and its challenges.
