<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Video Vortex community, </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">*Are you an expert of the ins and outs of
various online video platforms, applications, technologies
etc.? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">*Are you well-versed and interested in
presenting about Skype, Chatroulette, online video streaming,
Foursquare, Seesmic, Netflix, and immediate online news
channels, just to name a few. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">*Are you active in exploring and discussing
the problem of translation that exists across these platforms,
to name but one example.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">*Are you interested in contributing to a
critical conversation that continues to expand the exploration
of online video beyond Youtube?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">*********</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As most of you know, the INC recently put out
a <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://networkcultures.org/wpmu/videovortex/archives/767">call
for the upcoming Video Vortex 6, Amsterdam </a>event on March
11 & 12, 2011. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">While we've been receiving some really
interesting proposals for talks, and the deadline for abstracts
is not until October 11th, 2010, we're currently on an active
hunt for people to contribute to the session:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">'Platforms, Standards and the Trouble with
Translation.' </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">as described in the call: </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This theme seeks to draw forth experts who
will offer strong interventions regarding various platforms and
channels proliferating on the internet that contribute to the
ecology and culture of online video. These include, but are not
limited to: Skype, Chatroulette, streaming video technologies,
Foursquare, Seesmic, Qik video, Netflix, immediate news channels
online etc. The theme focuses on the problem of the translations
across platforms that arise to due to conflicts in standards.
The geo-cultural, and often the national, limits to open sharing
of online content are also significant. How do users and
producers get around the limits of these borders? How do they
work under the radar or tunnel through the firewall in the face
of censorship and content control? Or do people simply submit to
the powers that be?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">**********</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are interested in offering an
abstract, please check out the original call <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://networkcultures.org/wpmu/videovortex/archives/767">here</a>,
for the submission format. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you know of anyone you think could offer a
great contribution, send us ideas to
rachel(at)networkcultures(dot)org and pass along the message!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Abstract Deadline: October 11, 2010. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And of course, we're still interested in
receiving proposals for the other sessions, so check out the
original <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://networkcultures.org/wpmu/videovortex/archives/767">call</a>,
and send us your abstracts! </p>
