Subject: Call for Papers, The Journal of New Media & Culture
PLEASE CIRCULATE & POST: CALL FOR PAPERS
________________________________________
NMEDIAC : The Journal of New Media & Culture (nmediac.net), an online
peer-reviewed scholarly journal, is accepting paper submissions for its
second issue of 2002: Summer 2002 (August 15 launch date).
The submission deadline for materials to be considered for the Summer 2002
issue is July 1.
NMEDIAC has adopted the mission of publishing peer-reviewed papers and
audiovisual pieces that contextualize encoding/decoding environments and
the discourses, ideologies, and human experiences/uses of new media
technologies. NMEDIAC hopes to provide an intellectual canvas where the
cultural spaces and experiences of new media are theorized and rigorously
explored within both global and local contingencies of the present and
past. Papers that take cultural studies, critical Internet/cyberculture
studies, and new media studies approaches to analyzing new media
technologies are particularly welcome.
All submissions received after submission deadlines will be considered for
subsequent issues. Papers should be submitted by email in .doc, .pdf,
.html, or another format to Jonathan Lillie at: jlillie@email.unc.edu
All submission should follow APA style and citation guidelines. There is
no word/length limit. Embedded images, audiovisual media, and links to
relevant web sites are encouraged. Submissions of both humanities and
social science-oriented research papers and papers that intentionally
bridge, span, breach, and/or blur disciplinary boundaries are also
encouraged.
Audiovisual new media art or presentations may also be submitted or
proposed. Preference is placed on pieces that are submitted along with, or
incorporate, scholarly work/research/discussions.

Subject: [i love u] eurovision - may 2002
http://www.i-love-u.ch http://www.i-love-u.tv
Last night my dear,
I saw you on stage. Afterwards I took a woman up to my room. I had to.
She sat herself upon me rocking back and forth violently, laughing,
shaking her hair, a bottle of champagne in on hand, a broken glass in
the other. But a light beam from the halogen lamp at the ceiling got
caught in the sharp fragments. It caught my eye. And I remembered yours.
How they were sparkling from the stage lights, applause all around, a
rain of flowers showering down covering the floor with a carpet of
roses. And you opened your arms wide, the light changed from red to
blue, as if moonlight. And you sang. Crystal clear your voice, glasses
exploding.
I suddenly pushed the woman of me because my tears had began to flow and
I heard myself sobbing. It lasted for about two minutes and then
stopped. The woman down on the floor went quiet, staring at me in
surprise. So I closed my eyes, threw the broken glass with its glitters,
lights and tingles out of the window and went on making love to her,
trying to forget it was not you. Maybe I will succeed some day.

The Third Edinburgh Financial Cryptography Engineering Conference
28-29 June, 2002
The Signet Library
Parliament Square
Edinburgh, Scotland
C A L L F O R P R E S E N T A T I O N S
Edinburgh is again host to the international *engineering* conference
on Financial Cryptography. Individuals and companies active in the
field are invited to present and especially to demonstrate Running
Code that pushes forward the "state of the art".
STATEMENT OF INTENT
In spite of the excesses and tragedies of the Great Dot Com era,
we have come to the realization that the Internet, Commerce, and
Technology are inextricably related. We are therefore gathered
together to study, as a community, the application of Cryptograpy
and Information Security to the world of Finance. For it is Finance
that drives Commerce, and Commerce, in the modern era, is based on the
'net.
This is a technical, practical meet. Presentations of demonstrable
technology in the field of Financial Cryptography are invited. As this
is a practical conference, we are hoping to accept every demonstrator.
THE RULES OF ENGAGEMENT
This conference is about implementations. Presentations are required
to demonstrate working code within the first five minutes. Note that
we are delighted to accept proposals from work-in-progress projects.
If your demo crashes while honorably attempting to execute, the crowd
will still love you.
THE VENUE
Our Venue is the Upper Library, within the Signet Library, which is a
listed building housing the Society of Writers to Her Majesty's Signet.
This exclusive conference venue is located in the centre of Edinburgh,
within the Royal Mile.
ADMINISTRATION
Included in the conference admission will be breakfast, lunch and
tea & coffee breaks. Also included will be the conference dinner
in a local Edinburgh establishment.
The conference administration will block-book a convenient hotel
in the centre of town. Details to be advised.
NEXT STEPS FOR PRESENTERS
1. Save the dates 28/29 June 2002, Friday and Saturday on your calendar.
It is good to plan on a few extra days, and especially, leaving on
the day after, Sunday, will help to get the best fares.
2. Prepare your presentation. Check the evolving programme at
http://www.efce.net/programme.html.
Propose your presentation by mailing the Programme Chair,
Rodney Thayer, at programme@efce.net.
3. Book passage to Edinburgh. Don't forget to stay a few days on either
side to see the sights. Check the site for Locatives and Logistics.
4. Work on your presentation. Remember, the main rule is that you
demo working code.
5. Get your budget approved / allocated / applied for. Whilst a
commercial conference, accepted presenters will pay a deeply
discounted fee, to be announced in a forthcoming release. For
planning purposes, 200 GBP (approximately 300 dollars or 320
euros) should cover presenter's admission; the hotel should be
about 100 GBP ($150 or E160) per night.
Also include travel and incidentals in your budget.
6. The call for delegates -- attendees who do not present -- will
by published at a later date. If there is someone in your
organisation who needs to survey the state of the financially
cryptographic art, they can attend as a delegate. For planning
purposes, 500 GBP ($750 or E800) should cover the delegate's
admission.
7. If you think the conference can benefit your organisation,
consider sponsoring. Contact the Sponsorship Chair
Fearghas McKay, sponsor@efce.net for more details.
8. Keep an eye on the conference web site (www.efce.net)
for evolving details.

WHAT LIES BEHIND FUNDAMENTALISM
Search for a perfect world of Islam *
by OLIVIER ROY
We have been told for years, and especially since
September, about Islamic fundamentalism. But what it is
and what does it want? A new current within Islam demands
to oust dominant Western culture and build another
universal culture. Yet if it did that, wouldn't it be
mirroring its American model, only with 'halal' McDonalds
rather than the delicacies of the Caliphate? Could this
type of fundamentalism be as much a product as an agent
of cultural loss?
Translated by Harry Forster
MORE FINANCIAL AID, MORE PEACEKEEPERS NEEDED NOW
Afghanistan: in transition to chaos *
by SELIG S HARRISON
The Loya Jirga will meet in June to appoint a new
transition government, but there are still clan struggles
between competing warlords; and the US and its allies are
continuing operations against the Taliban and al-Qaida.
Original text in English
DEATH IN A GIRLS' SCHOOL CHANGES NATIONAL TONE
Saudi Arabia: breaking the silence *
by our special correspondent ALAIN GRESH
US credibility in the Arab world will be damaged unless
Washington pressures Israel to withdraw its troops from
the Palestinian cities: that was the Crown Prince
Abdullah's message to President Bush in Texas this April.
Riyadh is worried at the build-up in the Middle East, and
the feelings of ordinary Saudis are beginning to figure
in the kingdom's decision-making.
Translated by Luke Sandford
PALESTINE FROM NEAR AND FAR
A sideshow to the conquest of Iraq *
by GEOFFREY ARONSON
President Bush allowed Ariel Sharon to do what he wanted.
Why? Because he believes Saddam Hussein's Iraq, not
Palestine, is the key to the region.
Original text in English
Target area *
by AMNON KAPELIOUK
The true death toll in the rubble of the Jenin camp will
never be known even if Israel were to admit the United
Nations investigation team. The events of spring 2002 are
already legends with terrible power on both sides.

The bulldozer war
by CHRISTIAN SALMON
In March, during the worst of the fighting on the West
Bank, a delegation from the International Parliament of

Christian Salmon from France.

WHO RULES: ELECTED PRESIDENT OR SELF-APPOINTED CIVIL SOCIETY?
Venezuela: a coup countered
by our special correspondent MAURICE LEMOINE
Employers, a corrupt trade union, the Church, the middle
classes and the media, with the help of dissident
generals, all calling themselves 'civil society', mounted
a coup last month against the elected president of
Venezuela, Hugo Chávez. Senior officials of the Bush
administration welcomed the potential removal of a leader
whose independence has been anathema to Washington. But
ordinary people and loyal soldiers turned out to resist
the coup. They prevailed. So Chávez stays in power for
now.

GLOBAL MARKET IN MEDICAL WORKERS
Exporting health *
by DOMINIQUE FROMMEL
There is now an international trade in doctors and
nurses, and every year poor countries lose both the $500m
that it has cost them to train health workers recruited
by the developed world, and the health workers, who could
be crucial to a permanent improvement in conditions in
the South.
Translated by Harry Forster
GLOBAL MARKET IN WATER
Commodifying rain *
by our special correspondent FRANCK POUPEAU
People in Argentina and Bolivia have begun openly to defy
the two big French multi-national companies that control
their privatised water supplies. Charges have increased
enormously while the service has worsened.
Translated by Malcolm Greenwood
'GMOS ARE HARMLESS, END OF STORY'
Unfree trade
by SUSAN GEORGE
The United States wants the European Union to lift its
1998 moratorium on the import of new genetically modified
organisms. This is one-sided free trading - as at the
same time the US is adopting protectionist measures to
help its steel industry. The EC, far from resisting, is
doing its undemocratic best to help the US.
Translated by Barry Smerin

WHO ARE EUROPE'S NEW RIGHT AND WHAT DO THEY STAND FOR?
Fascism isn't what it used to be *
by JEAN-YVES CAMUS
Support for the National Front in the French presidential
election was not an isolated phenomenon. Throughout the
European Union and in Eastern Europe, the far right is
growing stronger, and the reactions to it more urgent and
angry; this month successful Dutch rightwing leader Pim
Fortuyn was shot dead in the street, shocking the
Netherlands.
Translated by Luke Sandford
UNCOMMONLY RARE TELEVISION
Jailhouse rocks *
by MARTIN WINCKLER
Television is more than cultural junk food for the
masses; it can provide a platform for talented artists
and creative visionaries. The American series Oz is a
shining example.
