Meanwhile, Deanna's work as a communication strategist and writer is influenced by her background in linguistics and creative writing. Our efforts to make communication arts more accessible led us to create a multisensory art book. This book combines photography and poetry to visually and conceptually narrate the story of ever-changing urban environments in a constant state of decay.

For the generation that is seeing such books for the first time as objects from another era, how do they interact with their materiality as digital ephemera?

Especially if you position your research within traditional disciplines like literary studies. Likely journals might not publish your work. What do we, especially young researchers and PhD scholars, do in that case where our outputs get measured with specific journal/publication metrics? In this regard, I propose a brainstorming session where we can put on our thinking caps and then throw our best hats in the ring. Could we as a collective propose a special issue in another journal? Work with each other so that it benefits our publication portfolio? In short, what can we do to support each other? Let’s think through some of these issues. Please come to the session having looked at certain journals and publication spaces which you think are good places for your work. side note: the stronger opinions you have about journal metrics, the better friends we can become | Samya Brata Roy | <samyabrataroy@gmail.com> | Prakruti | Samya Brata Roy (he/him) is a PhD scholar at the School of Liberal Arts, IIT Jodhpur.
