I keep thinking about the first AoIR conference call for papers. The announcement about that one was circulated on this obscure list originally - air-l - and the conference was to take place in an out-of-the-way place (Kansas) and the association didn't have a sophisticated website and wasn't really well known... Hm. Must have been conference spam ;) Ulla

CFP: Society for the History of Technology
by Jason Gallo 20 Jan '06

20 Jan '06

2006 Annual Meeting of the Society for the History of Technology Call for Papers The Society for the History of Technology will hold its annual meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada, October 12-16, 2006. The Program Committee is seeking proposals for both individual papers and complete panels. Proposals from those new to SHOT are welcome, regardless of discipline. As usual, the Program Committee invites paper and panel proposals on any topic in the history of technology, broadly defined. Of special interest for 2006 are proposals that engage with the following themes: 1. Technology, Games, and Entertainment 2. Technology, Race, and Ethnicity 3. Conversations between History of Technology and other Disciplines For the 2006 meeting the Program Committee is also encouraging unconventional sessions, that is, session formats that vary in useful ways from the typical three/four papers with comment. These might include (but are not limited to) sessions with no formal commentator, workshop-style sessions with papers that are pre-circulated electronically, or "author meets critics" sessions. The Program Committee's highest priority in evaluating paper and panel proposals is scholarly excellence. In evaluating panel proposals the Program Committee is especially interested in sessions that team established and younger scholars, and/or draw participants from multiple institutions and multiple countries. The deadline for proposals is March 15, 2006. Please submit your proposals to light(a)northwestern.edu. See below for proposal guidelines and submission instructions. Guidelines for Proposals: Proposals for individual papers must include: --A one-page abstract (maximum 600 words) indicating the paper topic, argument(s) made, and evidence base used --A one-page c.v. --A completed AV equipment request form (available on the SHOT website) Proposals for complete sessions must include: --A description of the session that explains how individual papers contribute to an overarching theme --A list of the presenters' names and paper titles --For each presenter, a one-page abstract (maximum 600 words) indicating the paper topic, argument(s) made, and evidence base used, as well as a one-page c.v. --For the commentator (if any), chair, and session organizer (if s/he is not one of the session's panelists), a one-page c.v. --For each presenter, a completed AV equipment request form (available on the SHOT website) --Panel proposals sponsored by any SHOT Special Interest Group should be clearly indicated Submission Instructions: --Materials should be sent in a single email message to light(a)northwestern.edu with electronic copies of all elements of the complete proposal as attachments, formatted in Microsoft Word (any version of Word is fine, but it must be in Word). --Whether submitting an individual paper or a complete panel, the program chair needs to receive a separate attachment for each item (c.v., proposal, and AV request form). --Please save your proposal with your last name and the word "proposal" (for example, "brown.proposal.doc") --Please save your c.v. also with your last name and the word "vitae" (for example, "brown.vitae.doc") --In case of a panel, please save each individual abstract and c.v. with the presenter's last name and the word "abstract" or "vitae" (for example, "brown.abstract.doc" and "brown.vitae.doc") General information: -While SHOT rules exclude multiple submissions (i.e. submitting more than one individual paper proposal, or proposing both an individual paper and a paper as part of a session), scholars may both propose a paper and serve as a commentator or session chair. -Since SHOT 2007 will be the organization's 50th anniversary celebration, scholars interested in presenting work on the history of SHOT are asked to defer those submissions until next year. Presenting at the 2006 meeting will not rule out presenting in 2007, as SHOT is waiving its customary rule preventing scholars from presenting at two consecutive domestic meetings. -Please note that due to cost factors, SHOT cannot guarantee the availability of digital projectors for all sessions. Those with access to projectors are encouraged to bring their own, and to let the Program Committee know if they might have equipment to share. For more information about AV equipment, please see the online AV request form. -Additional information about the 2006 meeting can be found online at http://www.shot.jhu.edu/Annual_Meeting/Annual_Meeting_Main_Page.htm -For questions about the program themes, submission guidelines, or any other aspects of the Call for Papers, please email Jen Light, Program Committee Chair: light(a)northwestern.edu -- Jason Gallo PhD Candidate Media, Technology and Society Program School of Communication Northwestern University jgallo(a)northwestern.edu

Reminder CFP: Special Issue on Public Computing in City Contexts
by Irina Shklovski 20 Jan '06

20 Jan '06

This is a reminder that call for articles for a special issue of IEEE Computer on Public Computing in the City ends **February 15, 2006** We are seeking articles approximately 6000 words in length (including figures and references) Author guidelines and submission instructions are available at www.computer.org/portal/pages/computer/mc/author.html Please send inquiries to the guest editors: Michele Chang <michele.f.chang(a)intel.com> and Irina Shklovski <irinas(a)cs.cmu.edu> --------------------------- Call for Articles for IEEE Computer Computer seeks articles for a special issue on public computing in city contexts, to appear in August 2006. Guest editors are Michele Chang from Intel and Irina Shklovski from Carnegie Mellon University. In recent years, forces of technology, culture, and society have converged to reshape urban life. The urban experience has quickly emerged as a major focus for research on issues of mobility, location-based services, and pervasive computing. A citys complexities, embodied in its social, historical, and technological infrastructures, make it a viable alternative to the controlled environment of the lab. Yet, as urban experience becomes an increasingly explored avenue for pervasive computing research and application design, there is the risk of approaching the city as a backdrop a site for exploratory activities that presumes a dense population of users without considering the more complex aspects of city life. This special issue will be devoted to bringing members of the human-computer interaction community together with researchers and practitioners from the fields of urban planning, architecture, and design to examine public interfaces and their effects on the urban environment. Public interfaces are systems that foster public dialog, facilitate the exchange of information and services, or encourage interaction between public entities and city inhabitants. Computer encourages submissions reporting systematic empirical studies or critical analyses of interdisciplinary research as well as descriptions of technology design and development. Topics of particular interest include computing as a shared resource, surveillance and personal boundaries in public spaces, access as a means of control and discrimination, and supporting individuals in the production of knowledge. The deadline for submitting papers is **15 February 2006**.

Panel Proposal
by bl506＠york.ac.uk 20 Jan '06

20 Jan '06

May I invite anyone interested in contributing to the following proposed panel to contact me please. Proposed Panel for aoir Conference 2006 Health Informatics for Older People This panel is designed to focus upon the convergence of digital technologies to facilitate health and social care practices for older people. In many parts of the world networked digital technologies are seen as an important means to both improve the delivery of clinical and educational services for older people and also to promote and enable independent care in the community and home setting. These could include electronic patient records (EPRs) designed to enable the sharing of information between practitioners and agencies; the use of interactive TV, Internet websites, help-lines to enable users to access information; electronic networks to provide easier on-line appointments booking; electronic messaging for reminders; the adoption of mobile technologies; and remote consultations and assessments through videoconferencing. Very often the key policy objectives informing the design and adoption of ICTs as they relate to the health and social care of older people include the following: § To both acknowledge the importance of older people (aged over 65) as major users of health and social services together with a recognition that existing health and social services are fragmented, provide poor services to older people and are unable to cope with the rising demands of this group; § To provide integrated services whereby health and social service professionals and organisations share user information; § To enable the independent care of older people, whenever possible, within their own homes and communities; § To provide a positive view of old age and include the service user and their carers in their assessment, diagnosis and care programmes; § To share appropriate and easy to use information with older people through a variety of communication means. Please contact me or better still send me an abstract of no more than 500 words if you are interested in joining us. Brian D.

Fwd: CFP: Internationalizing Internet Studies (1/31/06; collection)
by Tarleton Gillespie 18 Jan '06

18 Jan '06

'Internationalizing Internet Studies' Call for papers for a edited collection by Gerard Goggin (University of Sydney) & Mark McLelland (University of Wollongong) From the mid-1990s onwards, the Internet has shifted fundamentally from its co-ordinates in English-speaking countries, especially North America, to become an essential medium in a wide range of countries, cultures, and languages. According to October 2005 statistics, Chinese language now represents 14% of all Internet communication and media use, Spanish 9% and Japanese 9%. At 35% and falling, English use is now a minority in terms of overall online language use. However, communications and media scholarship, especially in the Anglophone world, has not registered the deep ramifications of this shift - and the challenges it poses to the concepts, methods, assumptions, and frameworks used to study the Internet. The vast body of Anglophone scholarship into 'the Internet' is predicated on research on and about English-language websites by academics and other researchers working and publishing in English. Despite the fact that there is also a large body of work being produced by scholars in non-English-speaking cultures and locales, hardly any of this work is being translated and it has had little impact on theorization of the developing fields of Internet and web studies. The purpose of this anthology, 'Internationalizing Internet Studies', is to acknowledge that Internet use and Internet studies take place 'elsewhere' in various national and international contexts. We seek to uncover how non-Anglophone uses of the Internet might challenge certain preconceived notions about the technology and its social impacts as well as the manner in which Internet studies is taken up, valued and taught outside the circuits of understanding prevalent in Anglophone academia. Through bringing together researchers whose daily experience of the Internet is mediated through non-Anglophone languages and cultures as well as researchers situated within the Anglophone academy whose work focuses on cultures outside North America and Europe, we hope to promote the visibility of work already being done outside the Anglophone world. We also aim to encourage new work that critically engages with Anglophone Internet scholarship that is based on research into diverse locales and draws upon a range of intellectual traditions. Accordingly, we wish to gather together a distinctive collection of contributors who can illuminate the key features of the Internet's internationalization, surveying exemplary Internet language groups and cultures. We hope to encourage explorations of the distinctive features of the consumption and use of the Internet by various language groups, and how this expands and questions taken-for-granted notions of Internet studies. We are also interested in contributions that reflect upon this cosmopolitan turn in the Internet, and what it signifies for our methods, tools, and concepts of Internet studies - and for media, communication, and cultural theory themselves. Here we are concerned with the debate - yet to emerge - on the internationalization of 'Internet studies'. Contributions would be welcomed, but are not restricted to, the following topics: * non-anglophone language communities use of the Internet * Asian countries and communities use of the Internet (especially Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) * mobility and the Internet: how the Internet is deployed by people on the move across borders * use of the Internet by diasporic communities * Internet use by minority language speakers in majority Anglophone and other language contexts * Indigenous use of the Internet * how particular Internet technologies (websites, peer-to-peer technologies, blogs, social software, mobile Internet) have been shaped and are used by different language and cultural groups * cell phone, mobile and wireless technologies and the internationalizing of the Internet * how does this change our understanding of Internet cultures and cultural histories? * what the implications of internationalizing of the Internet for debates concerning cultural citizenship and media diversity? (not least Internet governance, open source and commons debates) * what are the implications of increasing 'global governance' of the Internet for local and countercultural communities? * how is Internet studies responding to the internationalizing of the Internet - what new concepts, methods, locations and relationships does it need? Timeframe: Please send abstracts of no more than 500 words to both editors outlining your proposed contribution to the edited collection by 31 January 2006. We will advise acceptance by 1 April 2006. We will be holding a workshop on 'Internationalizing Internet Studies' in Brisbane on 27 September 2006 immediately before the Association of Internet Researchers (AoIR) Annual Conference 7.0, and hope that we will be able to invite some contributors to attend and present drafts of their full papers. (We expect limited travel bursaries will be available for those attending from outside Australia). About the Editors: From January 2006, Dr Gerard Goggin (g.goggin(a)uq.edu.au) will be an ARC Australian Research Fellow in the Department of Media and Communication, the University of Sydney. He has published widely on Internet and new media, including Digital Disability (2003), Virtual Nation: The Internet in Australia (2004) and Cell Phone Culture (forthcoming 2006). Dr Mark McLelland (m.mclelland(a)uq.edu.au) is a Lecturer in the School of Social Sciences, Media and Communication at the University of Wollongong. Recent Internet-related publications include Japanese Cybercultures (2003) and Queer Japan from the Pacific War to the Internet Age (2005).

Call for Applications: Central European University, Media Policy
by Nanne Priebs 18 Jan '06

18 Jan '06

Dear Colleagues, May I ask that you all utilize your own networks and contacts to promote and distribute the call for applications I am posting here widely? We would be very appreciative if you could help to introduce the program to students on your campus as well as hopefully encourage those interested in the MPP Media program to apply. BUDAPEST SEMESTER ABROAD and MA PROGRAM The Center for Media and Communication Studies (CMCS) provides a semester program aimed primarily for US and European law students interested in media and communications policy. In the semester program (offered only in fall), students remain enrolled at their home institution but spend an exciting semester in Budapest, engaging in the Program in "Media, Information and Telecommunication Policy" which is part of CEU's Public Policy Program and taking selected courses (including courses on EU law) from the gifted CEU faculty. Students, after satisfying requirements, can receive up to 12 credits from their home institution. With a highly structured semester, combining coursework on media and communication law and policy topics and research opportunities at the CMCS, the program will appeal to law students seeking to gain a more international or comparative perspective on media. This program has been developed in connection with the University of Pennsylvania (Annenberg School for Communication) and students from the University of Pennsylvania, Tulane and Cardozo law schools have participated. Among the courses available in the semester abroad program are Fundamentals of Communications and Media Policy (4 credits), The Policy Process, Policy Analysis and Public Sector Management (4 credits), Politics, Law and Public Policy (4 credits) as well as classes from the Legal Studies Department such as International and Comparative Broadcasting Law (1 credit), Comparative Free Speech (2 credits). All courses at CEU are taught in English. In their courses, students work with graduate students from around the region and from Western Europe. They will be able to participate in many of the rich offerings and lectures at CEU and are encouraged to become actively involved in the projects hosted by the Center for Media and Communication Studies (see http://www.cmcs.ceu.hu:8080/cmcs/Projects/) The Fall 2006 semester abroad program runs from September through December 2006. Students can remain for the academic year and receive a Master's in Public Policy (http://www.ceu.hu/mpp/) Students can obtain the semester credit at home (with permission from their home institution) and the Master's degree from CEU within the one year span. You application package should include: - Completed application form (http://www.ceu.hu/downloads/non-degree_app.doc) - One letter of recommendation - Official transcripts from all universities attended - Evidence of English language proficiency if you are not a native speaker CEU (www.ceu.hu) is a US-style English language graduate university with a focus on the social sciences and the humanities, accredited both in the United States and in Hungary, and located in Budapest, in the heart of Europe. The university is oriented to interdisciplinary research on, and the study of social change and the policy implications of transition to open societies. In addition, emphasis is placed on European Union affairs, as well as on the special features of non-Western democracies. CMCS (www.cmcs.ceu.hu) aims to be the vehicle for conducting various international research and policy projects; researchers and experts affiliated with CMCS play an important role in shaping national research and development priorities in Eastern Europe. Budapest also provides a unique opportunity for graduate students to travel to regional historical spots such as Bratislava, Belgrade, Prague and Vienna. Please see our brochure at http://www.cmcs.ceu.hu:8080/cmcs/graduate_progs/CMCS_CEU%20Brochure.pdf . Deadline for the Fall semester 2006: March 1 2006.
