Transforming Spaces: The Topological
Turn in Technology Studies
22 - 24 March, 2002
University of Technology,
Darmstadt, GERMANY
Organized by the post-graduate school "Technology and Society" at
the University of Technology Darmstadt (http://www.ifs.tu-darmstadt.de/gradkoll/index.html).
This conference will problematize the spatial character of the relationship
between technology and human beings. It addresses two interrelated questions:
To what extent do machines and media organize society three-dimensionally
thus ordering the spaces in which modern life takes place? And, conversely,
to what extent do material and communicative structures open up new
mental and physical spacesthus transforming the boundaries of daily
life?
One-page abstracts for papers, accompanied by a one-page CV, may be
sent to:
Professor Mikael Hard,
Department of History,
Technical University Darmstadt,
Schloss, DE-64283
Darmstadt, Germany,
hard@ifs.tu-darmstadt.de
The deadline for submissions is Nov. 1, 2001.
