Hi all, I'm co-chairing the Critical Code Studies panel in Toronto in June at the ACM Hypertext conference, and we're looking for short proposals by April 30th.
Critical Code Studies is an emerging discipline which is well demonstrated by this paper by Mark Marino: Disrupting Heteronormative Codes: When Cylons in Slash Goggles Ogle AnnaKournikova http://escholarship.org/uc/item/09q9m0kn Check it out and please consider submitting something to the panel! And please pass it on to people you think might be interested in joining us. More details below... thanks, micha /// ACM Hypertext: Toronto, Canada, June 13-16, 2010 Critical Code Studies ACM Workshop (June 13) Organizers: Micha Cardenas, Jeremy Douglass, Mark Marino http://www.ht2010.org/Workshops_3.html Description: Recent movements in technocultural studies have sent critics “under the hood” of digital texts. This workshop examines the code that produces the creative digital artifacts in order to develop a rich sense of the artistic and social implications of particular coding choices. A primary goal is to develop the ways of speaking about the code to complement the kinds of analyses that have typified Hypertext. We intend to arrange publication of proceedings at the Critical Code Studies website. However, we will seek to arrange further publication in Digital Humanities Quarterly, electronic book review, or Configurations. Discussion will also be conveyed through the Critical Code Studies listserv, which we are forming to commute the work of the CCSWG online discussion forums. Papers in this w/s will focus on close readings of computer source code in hypertext and hypermedia software and related artifacts.
