How does performance (creation, perception and audience response, staging, distribution, etc.) change with the integration of electronic media? Alternatively, what can we gain by reconceiving of internet culture through an awareness of performance theory? For a special issue of Journal of Literacy and Technology and possible book publication, I am seeking work on some aspects of performance on-line. The key phrase performance on-line can be taken as applying either to performance as affected by electronic media in some respects or to performance which occurs entirely in electronic form. Submissions are encouraged from those working in some area which can be construed as performance as well as those approaching performance from a more theoretical perspective. Suggested topics / themes: web as performance space, performative identity on line, cultural poaching, web as extension of IRL, code as performative medium, or others. For more on suggested topics, see the call for papers: http://www.svsu.edu/~glt/CFP.html Please submit 1-2 pp. proposals by Feb. 28, 2003 as attachments (RTF, Word or WordPerfect) to me at glt@svsu.edu . Hard copy may be sent to Gary Thompson, Saginaw Valley State University, University Center, MI 48710.
