The Rutgers-Camden Digital Studies Center welcomes panel proposals for the 2018 R-CADE Symposium, April 20, 2018. The Rutgers-Camden Archive of Digital Ephemera (R-CADE) provides scholars and artists the opportunity to do hands-on work with digital ephemera.
Panels are provided with funds (up to $1,000) to purchase hardware, software, or any other resources necessary to complete research or creative activity.
2018 TOPIC: TECHNIQUE
Grant Wythoff, the 2018 R-CADE Curator and Keynote Speaker, invites panel proposals that take up the idea of technique. While many of us increasingly use the same devices, designed and manufactured by the same companies, we all have distinctly unique routines or rituals when it comes to using them. How do we analyze, write about, or celebrate the performance of an individual user? What do these techniques reveal about the values of a digital culture, or its beliefs about how complex technologies actually work?
Panel proposals are due November 10, 2017
