Subject: Call for Contributions to Notework
Colleagues,
The fine, upstanding editorial team at Notework reminds me that it is
once again the time of year for your contributions to that estimable
publication. Please see details below. And no apologies this time for
cross postings.

NOTEWORK, November 2007.
Now hear this...
We are living in a state of emergency. Information wars, rumour,
conspiracy, sleeper street bombs and dirty plastics, modulation,
transformation, synchronisation, absinthe. As Kittler writes 'a total
media link on a digital base will erase the very concept of medium.
Instead of wiring people and technologies, absolute knowledge will run
as an endless loop', but in the meantime, there are still media, there
is still entertainment. At the centre of this maelstrom we find SCOS,
soldiering on, with its global arsenal of interventionary love,
subversion and symbolic capital. Consultants to the apocalypse,
epistemological priests with kakishnikov rifles, pataphysicians of
organization, rag pickers and dirty sluts in the corridors of academe,
this is a call to arms...
So, lets 'av you. We need your contributions to keep the love alive.
Stories, papers, anecdotes, puzzles, pictures, sound files ... Notework
is the SCOS members newsletter and community broadsheet that collects
and publishes news and stories of interest to scholars working in the
field of organization studies and critical management studies. We are
currently putting together the November 2006 issue of Notework and we
would like to invite members to submit their latest noodles and rants.
Alongside global SCOS rep reports, conference and seminar calls for
papers, competitions, naughty pictures, and the regular columns written
by some of the best writers in the field (Professor Peter Case, Emeritus
Professor Zoe Bertgan etc., Dr Ed Say's, etc.), we invite general
submissions from members and colleagues for publication in Nov 2006.
Please send your submissions to [log in to unmask] and
[log in to unmask]
Our copy deadline is November 24th. Lets the flood begin ....
Damian and Sam.
