3rd and FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS<\/span><\/p>\n

\nThe Electronic Literature as a Model of Creativity and Innovation in Practice (ELMCIP) research project invites paper and presentation proposals for its conference, Remediating the Social. Selected papers will be presented at the conference in Edinburgh, November 1-3, 2012.<\/span><\/p>\n

ELMCIP welcomes abstracts of up to 500 words for papers, presentations and group panel sessions that address network and digitally mediated creative practices that effect and reflect upon the role of creativity in social and community formation. Remediating the Social apprehends people and media as interacting generative agents, remediating one another as a vital part of contemporary social space. Papers that reflect upon “born digital” literary and artistic practice within the context of cultural formation are especially welcome. Papers might present theoretical positions, case studies or artist’s presentations, as well as other forms. We welcome proposals for panel discussions on specific topics that engage the conference theme.<\/span><\/p>\n

Remediating the Social will be hosted at Edinburgh College of Art (eca) of the University of Edinburgh, in collaboration with New Media Scotland and University College Falmouth. The conference will be held at eca. An associated exhibition will be held at Inspace, a purpose-built research and exhibition facility in the University of Edinburgh’s School of Informatics, fully instrumented to facilitate engagement with developments in new technologies, scientific research and creative practice. The exhibition will continue after the conference for three weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

The conference programme will consist of paper presentations, across a range of disciplines and modes of inquiry, addressing examples of creative communities that have formed around various practices, media and discourses. Case studies, papers and panels, including examples arising from the ELMCIP project and other contexts, will be presented. The conference will be web-cast, allowing for remote attendees to monitor events and put questions to conference via a live public feed, employing mediating technologies within the event. Conference proceedings will be peer reviewed and published, with ISBN.<\/span><\/p>\n
