SUMMARY:Society for the Anthropology of Consciousness Spring Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Don’t we all love a little magic and mystery? Ancient mystery schools taught ways of navigating the universe\, connecting with the divine\, and gaining wisdom. Magic was a method of interacting with the supernatural and to influence desired outcomes. Yet\, even as science has changed our understanding of the world and our place in it\, people still seek out the mystical. Many seek out spiritual experiences\, delight in being fooled by illusionists\, attend role-playing mysteries\, and hope their Hogwarts letter will arrive. For the upcoming conference we invite members to explore how and why mystery and magic are so enchanting to us. While there have been many anthropological studies of magic in the past\, there are still many meaningful ways in which we can look at how magic and mystery impact humanity. We are looking for topics from personal experiences of magic\, magic as control\, connection\, self-actualization\, even to the mystery of consciousness itself.

SUMMARY:The 2025 Society for Linguistic Anthropology Biennial Conference
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to imagine today?\nThe 2025 Society for Linguistic Anthropology Conference invites participants to explore the many ways that imagination critically shapes\, reproduces\, and transforms social worlds across times\, spaces\, and scales through discursive and non-discursive processes and practices. \nStarting with the idea of imagination as movement toward a thing\, state of affairs\, and/or set of ideas that does not (yet) exist\, we prompt participants to ask: Who imagines? What gets imagined? Toward what ends and with what effects? How do particular imaginaries resist or engage practices and technologies of mediation?  What happens when imagination is not just linked to\, but is also untethered from temporal terms and logics? What is the relationship between imagination and forms of individual and collective action\, including narrative\, claims-making\, and other rhetorical modes? How can we understand the myriad instantiations of imagination\, creation\, and critique—from innovation\, construction\, or invention to destruction\, violence\, or the reinforcement of the status quo?
