You are invited to join members of the Media Ecology Association who are attending AoIR 4.0 in Toronto to join them in a tribute to the late Dr. Neil Postman, which will be hosted by Dr. Paul Levinson, Chair of Communication & Media Studies at Fordhan University. Here is a note from Paul Levinson: AoiR 4.0 conference chair Liss Jeffrey has graciously asked me to MC an hour-long tribute to Neil Postman next Saturday -- October 18 -- from 6-7pm. That's 45 minutes after the cocktail party starts, and right before the gala dinner at 7pm. I hope all of you with an interest in Neil will attend. The tribute will consist of as many of us as possible standing up and saying a few or more words about Neil, and his impact on our work and lives. There's no need to decide beforehand if you'd like to speak, but if you wanted to e-mail me in the few days with an indication that you'll be attending and speaking, that would be ok too. See you next week! All best wishes, Paul www.sff.net/people/paullevinson PS -- I don't know the room as yet; that will no doubt be known by the time of the conference. Flyers announcing the tribute will be distributed at the conference.
