The conference integrates different disciplinary perspectives with the aim of building a unified interdisciplinary research field. Submissions are encouraged to articulate perspectives from literature, linguistics, philosophy, history, informatics and related fields to address questions about intelligence, creativity, and human experience in the digital era, fostering constructive dialogue among various disciplines and highlighting both unique insights and interdisciplinary synergies. We welcome works at different stages of maturity that will be selected by their novelty and relevance to the Text Affects community. Novelty and relevance will be assessed by the community chairs (senior reviewers). Selected papers will receive a detailed peer review by two experts providing recommendations about improvements and presentation at Text Affects. Proposals must be submitted through the OpenReview portal (Text Affects 2025 Venue https://openreview.net/group?id=AFFECTS/2025) open from the 31st of March 2025. As for different stages of maturity, we accept contributions from extended abstracts to short or full papers (2, 6 or 12 pages + references) using the conference template (*author instructions*). The submission deadline is 15 September 2025 but we encourage early submissions as review will be carried out as soon as the paper is received and results notified in three weeks from submission. The topic of this edition is the future of intelligence, a call to reflect on how Text Affects contribute to the development and expression of human and artificial intelligence. Contributions should follow one of the three suggested pathways and inspirational tracks: 1. Intelligence (in text affects) This pathway explores the concept of intelligence—human and artificial—through its narrative, linguistic, and emotional dimensions. It also examines the interplay between humans and machines in text creation and reception, highlighting their collaborative potential and evolving dynamics. It focuses on how texts, both traditional and digital, can be analysed to understand the relationship between creativity, intelligence, and human-technological collaboration. - Literature, Linguistics, and Book History a. Defining intelligence in humans and machines from literary, linguistic, or technological perspectives b. Human-machine interaction and collaboration in text production and reception (historical and synchronic perspectives) c. Linguistic diversity and creativity in machine communication - Sensemaking and Creativity a. Exploring the co-creation of meaning between humans and machines in interpretative processes b. Analysing the impact of linguistic technologies on redefining hermeneutic intelligence c. Bridging computational tools with traditional close reading practices 2. Aesthetics (in text affects) This pathway examines the transformation of aesthetics and cultural experiences in the digital age, including new forms of literature, such as interactive digital storytelling, art, like augmented reality installations, and interactive design seen in narrative-driven video games. It focuses on the aesthetics of digitalisation and curatorial practices, exploring how technology shapes human engagement and the ways cultural and artistic works are consumed. - Phenomenology and Digital Aesthetics a. The transition to born-digital texts and non-linear forms of art and literature b. Modelling user engagement as a facet of human experience c. Digital curatorial practices focusing on aesthetics and interactivity - Hypertext, Electronic Literature, and Games a. The role of hypertexts, digital fiction, and narrative-driven games in challenging or expanding our understanding of intelligence and creativity b. Documenting and analysing non-textual digital artefacts (e.g., tech-demoscene products, machinima) c. Exploring interactive design and game mechanics as models of intelligence and creativity - Cultural Heritage a. Associations between art and text and their role in democratising cultural appreciation b. New technologies supporting the integration of paintings, music, and poetry in digital collections c. Curating and preserving interactive and multimedia narratives 3. Benefits (in text affects) This pathway addresses the role of media and digital technologies in personal and social wellbeing. It also considers issues related to the preservation and accessibility of digital texts, such as ensuring equitable access and long-term cultural sustainability. It includes case studies on how technologies positively impact the social fabric, alongside reflections on preserving emerging digital knowledge forms for future generations. - Positive Intelligent Media a. The role of media technologies and AI in wellbeing and personal and social growth b. Real-life case studies of digital health and wellbeing applications c. Unexpected negative effects of media technologies on individuals and communities - Digital Publishing, Libraries, and Archives Analysis of born-digital texts and emerging digital formats Multimodal, accessible, and inclusive approaches to digital literacy Archival and preservation strategies for digital-only genres and formats Submission deadline: 6 October 2025 Submission link: https://openreview.net/group?id=AFFECTS/2025 Best regards, Francesca Francesca Benatti (she/her), Senior Research Fellow in Digital Humanities Department of English and Creative Writing Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences

Interviews are due to be held on 22nd September. In 2025, the King’s College London and University of Nottingham will launch the new Leverhulme Centre for Research on Slavery in War, funded by the Leverhulme Trust for up to £10 million over ten years. The Centre will be the first to systematically investigate the slavery–war nexus across history and into the future, using novel interdisciplinary methods that span the social sciences, humanities, and data sciences—including forecasting techniques, survivor narratives, and Earth Observation data. By reshaping knowledge and creating innovative tools and early warning systems, the Centre aims to support the global goal of eliminating forced labour, modern slavery, and human trafficking. You will bring information science and data management expertise into the new Leverhulme Centre for Research on Slavery in War. The new Centre for Research on Slavery in War is structured around four interconnected research strands—(Re)conceptualising, Understanding, Forecasting and Tackling—and aims for far-reaching insights that transform global responses to modern slavery in conflict settings. The role is based within the Understanding strand, in the Department of Digital Humanities in the Faculty of Arts and Humanities. The Understanding strand will map the distribution, prevalence and forms of slavery across diverse conflict zones in the modern world, building a new analytical paradigm to understand the phenomenon of slavery in war. Key research questions include: how has slavery manifested in war? How can diverse datasets be synthesised and analysed to research and address slavery in war? By working across the Centre’s datasets and using data analytics and machine learning, this Centre strand will build a blended data resource that can help to gauge the prevalence, forms, and distribution of slavery in wars.
