The mission of the France-UT Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies is to bring together French and UT scholars to exchange ideas and collaborate on research of mutual interest. For Fall 2004 the Institute is planning a conference entitled Internet, Culture, and Society: French and American Perspectives, scheduled to take place on November 18, 19, and 20 in the Charles Nelson Prothro Theater of the Harry Ransom Research Center. This is a timely and exciting topic which will be explored from various perspectives, since the internet has developed multifaceted ways of communicating with others, creating new forms of expression, and storing knowledge, and has raised as well a host of complex questions.The conference is organized around topics which highlight the interests and expertise of faculty and students at the University of Texas as well as counterparts and colleagues in France. It deals with the intersections of the social, the cultural, and the technological in plenary sessions, round tables, digital posters, and artistic performances. | |
