, University of Bologna

Mario Panico is a research fellow and adjunct lecturer at the University of Bologna. He is an active member of the research centre “TraMe- Centre for the Semiotic Study of Memory” at the same university. He is a memory studies scholar, and his research lies in the intersection between visual culture, difficult heritage and affect theory. At the moment he is working on two research projects: the first on the relationship between AI images, war imaginaries, cultural heritage and emotions; the second on the representation of genocide perpetrators in visual arts and memory museums.

, Monash University

Gemma is a Senior Lecturer in Human Geography at Monash University, Melbourne. Her main body of work draws on feminist and postcolonial thought as well as cultural geography to explore how families experience and tackle disasters during their everyday lives. This body of her research aims to develop a more human-centred scholarship on disasters. She is also passionate about working with disaster affected families and artists to produce and theorise creative research outputs.
