    Articulating Media

    A major thread in discussions at ASECS 2000 was the status of
    disciplinarity, interdisciplinarity, and multidisciplinarity. The
    Cultural Studies Caucus seeks to extend these conversations at ASECS 2001
    by taking up the question of how we come to articulate both the objects
    we study in the various disciplines and the relationships sustained
    between and among those objects. Specifically, this panel will explore
    questions of "intermediality," the connections among the various media as
    modes of representation. What links do we forge when we read different
    kinds of objects and ranges of cultural practices together? What forms of
    play are there among the various modes of representation? How do we
    theorize connections between texts and texts, texts and images, images
    and events? What are we doing when we group together disparate objects
    and media? This panel solicits papers that foreground the problem of
    articulation between, among, and through various disciplines, media, and
    cultural practices. We especially invite papers that take up the
    problematic of analyzing the relationship between material objects and
    visual images, manuscript and print, and various forms of performance.
