[Nettime-bold] call for papers--the language of new media |
The Language of New Media. (apologies for cross posting) (A panel proposed for the American Studies Association annual convention, Houston, TX, November 14-17, 2002) The language associated with new media and connected cultural and economic forces derives almost exclusively from English (the "World Wide Web" is a most obvious example). This panel seeks to explore the cultural contexts surrounding the global dissemination of the language of new media. What associations are implicit in the terms concerning information technologies? How does the terminology circumscribe the use of new media technologies? What are the cultural, political, social and economic ramifications of the spread of this language within and beyond U.S. borders? Please send 500-word abstracts and brief c.v. by January 12, 2002 to Jillana Enteen at jillana@rcnchicago.com Jillana Enteen jillana@rcnchicago.com http://www.rcnchicago.com/~jillana _______________________________________________ Nettime-bold mailing list Nettime-bold@nettime.org http://amsterdam.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-bold
