Extreme TrackingELO’s Visionary Landscapes: CFP for CCS (11/30)
Ξ November 28th, 2007 | → 0 Comments | ∇ conferences |
ELO’s upcoming 2008 conference “Visionary Landscapes” would be an excellent opportunity to meet up and share some more CCS work, focusing this time on the “literary” and the “visionary.” If you are still looking for a paper proposal, consider a Critical Code Studies reading of one of the works from the Electronic Literature Collection, many of which include their source code. We can use the blog to build discussion on whatever object you choose.
Looking at the call (reproduced below), CCS would fit well in at least three of the subcategories:
- Strategies for reading electronic literary works
Reading the code is certainly central here, and the more examples we produce the better.
- Innovative approaches to critiquing electronic literature
Again, since CCS is charting its own territories, most CCS readings would fall into the category of “innovative.”
- Artistic methods of composition used in intermedia storytelling (improvisation, collaboration, sample and remix, postproduction art, codework, hactivism, etc).
Certainly, this part of the call turns our attention to artistry in the code.
Hope to see you all there. And send in your proposals!
