The conference brings together language-centered research on CMC and
social media in linguistics, philologies, communication sciences,
media, and social sciences with research questions from the fields of
corpus and computational linguistics, language technology, text
technology, and machine learning.
We adhere to a wide definition of CMC and social media, covering
various media of digital communication, including email, newsgroups,
forums, chat and messenger applications (e.g. WhatsApp), social
networks (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok), gaming platforms, as
well as interactions in the communication areas of video portals
(YouTube), learning platforms, gaming apps, online games and virtual
worlds.
