Substantialist ideas of "the" social and "the" technological are frequently understood to have been effectively replaced by concepts of hybridity, sociotechnicality, naturecultures, spatiality, networks, etc. However, it seems as though these more holistic notions again need to be revised to adress the intersection of power, technology, and normativity in contemporary societies. A more radically relational perspective which adresses modes of experience within and through relational orders may be better suited to grasp both the horizontal (interactive, valuative) as well as vertical (hierarchical, ordering) aspects of realities in the cybernetic sociotechnological condition. It promises to account for the constitution of reflexivity and agency in the co-individuation of technologies, norms, and subjectivity. Recent developments in sociological and media research contribute to this debate with a triadic concept of relationality. The symposium brings together different strands of relational thought and research in social theory and media theory. It adresses the following questions: In what sense is the relation prior to what is being related, such as subjects, other living beings and things? Do technologies supplement, augment or replace institutional, normative power? How can the related entities re-work relations? What are agency and reflexivity in communication, discourses, assemblages, infrastructures, dispositifs, institutions, when these are understood as radically relational phenomena? An attempt to re-think, describe and understand relations at once lived and engineered may allow us to come to terms with the affective, emotional, normative and political underpinnings of contemporary communication societies. The two-day event engages sociologists and media scholars in a dialogue about the artificial nature of contemporary social and technological relations and their epistemic, agentic, political and normative dimensions. *Schedule* Thursday May 19th 9:30 -10:30 Arrival 10:30-11:00 Welcome: Götz Bachmann (Leuphana) Introduction: Boris Traue (Leuphana) 11:00-12:00 Hubert Knoblauch (Technische Universität Berlin) Subjectivity, Reciprocity, and Relationality 12:00-13:00 Anna Tuschling (Universität Bochum) „The forgotten Third?“ Relationality and Affective Computing 13:00-14:30 Lunch (at the venue) 14:30-15:30 Jérémy Grosman (Université de Namur) Youtube's Recommendation System: Relating Contents, Users and Advertisers 15:30-16:30 Michaela Pfadenhauer & Tilo Grenz (Universität Wien) Objectivation as Relationality.
