Call for Papers: 'complex' Edited by Jayde Cahir & Sarah James Sydney's City Rail has recently launched an advertising campaign with the slogan of "untangling our complex rail network". City Rail position Sydney's rail network as a complex system. Describing something as 'complex' can be the answer to many questions. Rather than positioning 'complex' as the end result we would like to explore it as a starting point. What is complex? How is it complex? Why is it complex? In socio-cultural terms 'complex' is used to describe transnational citizenship, communities, identities, multiple belongings, overlapping geographies and competing histories. Subsequently, if we think of 'complex' as something intricate, involved, complicated, dynamic, multi-dimensional, consisting of more than one element or various interconnected systems, 'complex' can therefore be applied to any area of research or topics of interest. We invite you to contribute to this discourse on 'complex' within popular and academic cultures by submitting papers of 3,000 words in length to the editors at complex@journal.media-culture.org.au. Article deadline: 4 May 2007 Issue release date: 27 June 2007 M/C Journal was founded (as "M/C - A Journal of Media and Culture") in 1998 as a place of public intellectualism analysing and critiquing the meeting of media and culture.
