cmc-corpora (https://cmc-corpora.org) is a series of yearly conferences established in 2013 and dedicated to the collection, annotation, processing, and analysis of corpora of computer-mediated communication (CMC) and social media.

The conferences bring together language-centered research on CMC and social media in linguistics, philologies, communication sciences, media, and social sciences with research questions from the fields of corpus and computational linguistics, language technology, text technology, and machine learning. The conferences feature research in which computational methods and tools are used for language-centered empirical analysis of CMC and social media phenomena as well as research on building, processing, annotating, representing, and exploiting CMC and social media corpora, including their integration in digital research infrastructures.
