(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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version>02 April 18-20 Calling all artists, designers, activists, multimedia producers, information architects, tactical media agents, programmers, musicians, filmmakers, concerned citizens and critical thinkers: This is a call for a gathering of the digital commons, and we want to hear from you! We are interested in your ideas, projects, sounds, films, papers and proposals concerning the future of the digital commons, and invite you to share them with us during our three-day convergence. The term /digital commons/ is derived from the Common Law movement in England in the 1600s. The movement called for the protection of shared public spaces - the "commons" - its tools and resources. Often, larger, private interests overran the commons, and this failure of the communities to maintain their public resources is known in the discourse as "the tragedy of the commons". This April 18-20, 2002, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago will host Version>02, a digital arts and technology convergence. To initiate the first iteration of this event, we are asking you to consider how the maintenance of this digital commons necessitates a dialogue about intellectual property, the balance between civil liberties and security, freedom of speech and privacy, and the implications of free or limited access to tools and information. We ask you to share your vision of this space, it1s present and future. Version>02 is an exploration of our digital commons and an opportunity to meet those who tend to its gardens, fences, and pathways. It is an investigation into maintaining, expanding and designing the commons, while ensuring the continuation of shared resources and information in all facets of communications. This April, Version>02, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago and participating area galleries will provide a forum for artists, performers, and critical thinkers. For three days and three nights, this digital arts and technology will feature performances, film screenings, web installations, and demonstrations from active minds of the emergent culture.
