[Air-L] Fwd: CALL FOR CHAPTERS: Drone art and creative practices

[Elisa Serafinelli]

*CALL FOR SHORT CHAPTERS*

*Drones in Society: New Visual Aesthetics *

*Palgrave PIVOT edited collection*



We are securing additional chapters for the current book (*In
progress) **Drones
in Society: New Visual Aesthetics* due for publication in 2023.

In the form of an edited collection, it will extend and innovate current
theoretical understandings of and approaches to digital art, visual media,
new technologies, digital culture and society. It will do so by exploring
the implementation of drones from different socio-cultural perspectives.

The content of this book is organised into four thematic areas entitled:

1) Drones in cinema, films and storytelling,

2) Drone aesthetics, sensing and mapping,

3) *Drone art and creative practices*, and

4) Drone uses and new practices.


Currently, we have 10 accepted chapters in relation to these themes but are
seeking to extend the contributions (shorts chapters between 2000 and 5000
words).

If you have original research that fits into the category of ‘drone art and
creative practices’, please send your *abstract (250 words*) to Elisa
Serafinelli (e.serafinelli at sheffield.ac.uk) by the *17th of February 2023*.



Best,
