Dear SLSA friends,

We, at Notre Dame, are organizing a one-day symposium titled
're:compute::media technologies and alternate futures' that might be of
interest to some of you. Alexander Galloway (NYU), Patrick Jagoda
(University of Chicago), Markus Krajewski (Basel), and Nathan Ensmenger (IU
Bloomington) will be joining us. Full schedule is provided below, please

Bringing together leading scholars from history and philosophy of
technology, media studies, and cultural studies of technology, the
re:compute symposium is a one-day event at the University of Notre Dame
that seeks to investigate political positions on computational media
studies across disciplines. Our goal is to foster discussion along the
tread of re:computation, imagining computationalities (conceptual,
metaphorical, technical) beyond the economic and historical confines
presented to us by Silicon Valley.  If re-computation is not only possible
but also necessary, then what and how can we recompute our computational
world?  Where goes the cultural study of computation today?
