Thanks Tama have a good time in Korea and I wish I was going there too. I was just thinking about how my teaching assistant union rep had commented on all the Internet studies I used to read in school saying he never saw such interesting books. Figuring out now that the Internet is more a creative work of many. Sure there are things like Excel or Firefox are an invention not a work of art. I figure I will be tweeting along with the conference with poetry. I will look into this journal call not as an academic but as a practitioner of arts. Safe travels everyone. Peter Timusk This is my own opinion and I do not speak for my employer or associations I am a member of or volunteer with including charities and political parties unless otherwise noted. -----Original Message----- From: Air-L [mailto:air-l-bounces@listserv.aoir.org] On Behalf Of Tama Leaver Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2014 11:20 PM To: aoir list Subject: [Air-L] Call for Papers: Research in the Humanities *May be of interest to some of you ...* *Ctrl-Z: New Media Philosophy* Call for Papers: Research in the Humanities <http://www.ctrl-z.net.au/journal/research-in-the-humanities-call-for-papers/> The editors invite submissions to a forthcoming special issue of *Ctrl-Z: New Media Philosophy* on the question of ‘research’ in the humanities today. What counts as research; what doesn’t; and who decides? Does the traditional distinction between critical and creative work still hold? Is creative work, or any form of non-traditional academic work (i.e. whatever doesn’t conform to a notion of the standard academic essay), quantifiable and measurable according to an idea of research modelled on a certain conception of science? And who or what is humanities research for? What are its most appropriate or effective means of dissemination, and what kinds of effects might be expected of it once—*if*—it reaches its proposed destination? The editors have begun to address these questions in earlier issues—see Briggs & Lucy, ‘Art as Research? <http://www.ctrl-z.net.au/journal?slug=briggs-lucy-art-as-research>’ ( http://www.ctrl-z.net.au/journal?slug=briggs-lucy-art-as-research), for example—but there are many other possible responses. Ctrl-Z welcomes contributions in a variety of forms, including: • Essays between 3,000 and 6,000 words • Reviews (books, films, exhibitions, performances, etc.), up to 2,000 words • Audio-visual texts • Short fiction/creative nonfiction between 3,000 and 6,000 words • Poetry Contributors are encouraged to incorporate images in their work, and the journal favours multidisciplinary approaches. The issue is scheduled for publication in 2015, and the deadline for submissions is 31 December 2014. For the journal’s preferred style of presentation, see previous issues.
