A member has alerted us that they received a email claiming to be from SCMS organizers, but which is, in fact, a scam—please check that any email you receive about the conference is from a email address you recognize. Stay vigilant, philosophers and theorists 🫡.

After a very close race, Bernard will now serve as Co-Chair. He will replace Shane Denson @medieninitiativ, who we would like to thank for all that he has done for the SIG during his three years as Co-Chair.
