Contributions are invited for a special collection of the journal Memory, Mind & Media (MMM) that explores the evolving timescapes of memory.

Titled After Memory: Shifting Perceptions of Time and Temporality in the Digital Condition, this issue seeks to examine how practices of remembering and forgetting are being transformed by information overload, algorithmic narratives, ephemeral archives, and networked patterns of consumption and interaction—and what these transformations mean for how we engage with the past, live in the present, and imagine potential futures. Beyond established theories and hegemonic perspectives, we particularly encourage contributions that examine alternative, marginalised, speculative, and practice-based approaches to the dynamics shaping memory.

Submission Guidelines:  Theoretical, empirical, speculative, and practice-based contributions with interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary perspectives. Please send an abstract (250-350 words) in English stating the medium of the contribution (written, visual, sonic, etc.), author(s), and affiliation(s) (institutional or independent) to opencall@aftermemory.net

Deadline for abstract proposals: 15 December 2025, 11:59 pm, Anywhere on Earth (AoE).

Decisions regarding abstract proposals will be communicated to authors in January 2026. Invited full manuscript submissions will begin on 1st April 2026, and continue until the Special Collection concludes.
