----------empyre- soft-skinned space---------------------- The -empyre moderating team is looking for energetic new media theorists, practitioners, curators, programmers or others with interests in new media and other emergent forms who represent perspectives that are not already represented on the moderating team, We are particularly interested in welcoming those from outside North America given the broad global audience of subscribers we enlist. We ask that you send an email of intent to Renate Ferro.
See info below and at our website: http://empyre.library.cornell.edu -empyre- is a global community of new media artists, curators, theorists, producers, and others who participate in monthly thematic discussions via an e-mail listserv. -empyre- facilitates online discussion encouraging critical perspectives on contemporary cross-disciplinary issues, practices and events in networked media. The list is currently co-managed by Renate Ferro (USA) and Tim Murray (USA) with the moderating team of Simon Biggs (UK), and Patrick Lichty (USA). Melinda Rackham (AU) initiated -empyre- as part of her doctoral research in 2002. -empyre- also welcomes guest moderators who organize discussions for one month. After more than ten years, -empyre- soft-skinned space continues to be a platform dedicated to the plurality of global perspectives reaching out beyond Australia and the Northern Hemisphere to greater Asia and Latin America. -empyre- website is generously hosted by the Rose Goldsen Archive of New Media Art, a repository of emergent ideas amongst those working at the leading edge of contemporary artistic practice. All discussions are currently archived by Pandora, a project of the National Library of Australia. Both of these institutions are dedicated to preserving online publications of national significance for future generations. _______________________________________________ empyre forum empyre@lists.cofa.unsw.edu.au http://www.subtle.net/empyre
