CFP:(dis)junctions:Eliterature and Cybertext Theory

This is a call for papers for a proposed panel to be held at (dis)junctions: theory reloaded at the University of California Riverside's 12th Annual Humanities Graduate Conference on April 8-9, 2005.

Along with the field of game studies, researchers in electronic literature continue to develop aesthetic and political readings of the new forms of narrative born from computerized and networked communications. Theorists are developing terminology for an aesthetics at the same time that artists are reshaping the poetics.

Contributors are invited to submit essays that analyze works of new media. Potential areas of analysis include (but are not limited to):

            Networked Performances, Hacktavism

            Interactive Art, Cybertext, Ludology

            Hypertexts/Hypermedia, Tactical Media

            Immersive or Emergent Art, Pervasive Play

This panel is extending the work of the global_interface workshop, an ongoing colloquium on digital arts and new media at UCR made possible by a Mellon grant. Throughout the year, global_interface promotes discussion of such international and interdisciplinary issues as video games, intelligent robotics, Afrofuturism, post-humanism, digital music, and online sexuality.
