How will new technologies, such as GAI, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, and Digital transformation reshape the creative industries: creativity, identities, practices, strategies and IP?
Although we know quite a bit about how new technologies shape industries and work generally, creative industries have been immune because creativity is the one thing that technology traditionally has not been able to replace.
How do emerging technologies like GAI potentially redefine who and what is creative, and will they reshape the experience of creative work and the identity of creative workers?
· How emerging technologies alter roles, relations, and structures in creative production and what are the implications for the value chain?
· How will technological change affect existing or create new organizational forms or organizational identities?
· How do new technologies align with or violate existing copyright law, which underpin economic and business models for defining who has monetary rights from a creative product? What new business models will arise to capitalize on these technologies?
· How does the increase in content creation and distribution via digital means influence cities as sites of creative production, which arose to offer co-location and agglomeration benefits?
· What social movements are emerging from these digital disruptions and what is their impact on the dynamics of creative industries?
We call for submissions to explore these dynamics in creative industries and take full advantage of the mission of the Academy of Management Discoveries (AMD): to publish and promote exploratory research of management and organizational phenomena that are not adequately explained by existing theories or understood by existing research. Submissions due between September 1-31, 2024.
Please see the call for further information:
