The Institute of General Semantics invites  submissions for its Discourse, Dialogue, and Democracy Symposium 2, to be held online via Zoom on Saturday, April 25th.

Our April 19th, 2025 online symposium sponsored by the IGS, Communication, Consciousness, & Culture Symposium 2, featured 24 presentations from Australia, Asia, Europe, and South and North America. This year we again continue the theme from this past October’s in-person symposium accompanying our annual Alfred Korzybski Memorial Lecture in New York City.

We welcome presentations on topics related to general semantics, including language and symbolic communication, meaning and perception, epistemology and evaluation, etc.; on topics related to media ecology, including representation and reality, technology and environments, art and awareness, etc.; and topics related to cybernetics and systems theory, etc.

Please send all submissions and queries to IGS President Lance Strate at president@generalsemantics.org by March 1st, 2026.
