Dear all, Along the same line, I think women's role in the NSFNET could be worth mentioning. For example, part of Repucci's work is freely available online at http://www.irma-international.org/viewtitle/12911/ Sincerely, Hang Ryeol

Hi all, this is a new journal part of the Digicult network, addressing interdisciplinary practices in the arts, science, technology and design apologies for any crossposting rb ------------------------------------ DIGIMAG JOURNAL || "PLACES AND SPACES" International Call for Papers Deadline: July 31, 2012 Call: http://www.digicult.it/call-for-papers/ Guidelines: http://www.digicult.it/guidelines-for-authors/ Journal: http://www.digicult.it/journal/ ----- Call for papers: “Places and Spaces” The birth, growth and development of spaces open to the creative and experimental use of Media and Digital technologies have affected the production and dissemination of contents, have enriched the art system and its boundaries, have provided new methodologies of production, modes of art display and creative practices (and the daily work of individuals engaged in the field). These groundbreaking practices span visual art and design, science and technology innovation, social studies and politics, ecology and economy, music and architecture. The context where they take place is hybrid: hacklabs and bureau of research; mailing lists; virtual and physical exhibition spaces; media centers and museums. This call for contributions wishes to assess these emergent places of innovations and this rich proliferation of research, critical thinking and radical praxis based on horizontal cooperation, by addressing the history, present and future, of projects developed to contribute, support, search, create and spread creativity and innovation using Media and digital technologies. The call considers, but is not limited to, the following questions: - How have the reciprocal relationship between spaces, research and creative/artistic processes been transformed? Is it possible to map the historical contexts that gave rise to spaces involved in creative practices based on Media? - How to describe, from a critical perspective, the tension between public and private, institutional and independent space? - What kind of economies have emerged from these spaces working with new media creative practices? What are the links (if any) between these spaces and contemporary art, culture markets and immaterial culture and the city? The institutionalization of independent spaces and their long term development has been in most cases supported by public fundings. Given the recent cuts, what new strategies of survival are available? - How has Media culture affected mainstream culture and its spaces? And in turn, how have spaces been affected by issues of production and dissemination of art and knowledge? Are there new objectives and strategies to be followed by spaces and institutions involved in these fields? - What spaces could (and can today) be considered most relevant to the development of production, exhibition, research and archiving of Media Art? How are methodologies and practices of archiving, preserving and disseminating Media Art evolved? What displaying techniques created by institutional and independent spaces can be considered the most significant and experimental? ------ Digimag is inviting proposals for an issue addressing these and related topics, especially from individuals active in the fields: curators, critics, hackers, fabbers, creative producers, lab managers, activists, designers, theorists, independent and academic writers, scholars, artists, etc. Please, send full manuscripts (Max. 5000 words + 200 words for the abstract), books and events reviews and interviews (1000 to 2000 words) to: journal@digicult.it a) Deadline for submission of full article for consideration: July 31 2012 b) 5 to 10 images at 72 dpi resolution, 700pixels width c) correct captions for images d) please follow the guidlines If you wish to send us inquiries and proposals for a special topics to be featured in the next issues, please, contact journal@digicult.it ------ We look forward to hearing from you!
