Date: Thu, 2 May 1996 08:26:01 -0400 (EDT) From: Radhika Gajjala <rxgst6+-AT-pitt.edu> Subject: virtual speeches - looking for volunteers too ANNOUNCING A SERIES OF VIRTUAL SPEECHES (for the virtual dissemination of knowledges) The Virtual Site is "Seminar-13" a space provided by the Spoon Collective. The Process: The "speaker" sends out a text of hir speech either to me at gajjala+-AT-pitt.edu (and I will forward the "speech" to seminar-13) or to the list, after the speech has been advertised for at least a week. The speech will be sent out in parts or all at once depending on the length of the text. The virtual audience will have about a week or so to read the text and respond with comments, questions and so on. The "speaker" will engage in discussion with the audience for a limited amount of time. The "speech" and the discussion that follows will also be placed at a website so that those of you who do not want to receive large messages can access the speech from the web. The First Speech: The First speech will be held at seminar-13 (of spoon collective fame). It will be sent out in the second week of May (and placed at the website). You will be informed about when and how to interact with the "speaker" soon after the virtual speech is sent out (if it is long, you will receive it in "chewable" parts) About the Speaker: The speaker will be Professor John Beverley who is currently at the Univ of Pittsburgh and is known for his work on Latin American Subaltern studies. SPEECH TITLE: ON THE PROJECT OF THE LATIN AMERICAN SUBALTERN STUDIES GROUP { the website for this - HTTP://WWW.PITT.EDU/~GAJJALA/VIRTUAL-JOHN.HTML} To participate in this virtual event, send a message to majordomo-AT-jefferson.village.virginia.edu with the message SUBSCRIBE SEMINAR-13 [NOTE:I am seeking volunteer speakers - if interested please send me a direct message at gajjala+-AT-pitt.edu or rxgst6+-AT-pitt.edu ] thanks, Radhika Gajjala (moderator third-world-women co-moderator sa-cyborgs co-moderator postcolonial) ******************************************************** homepage:: http://www.pitt.edu/~rxgst6/jabberwocky.html sa-cyborgs archives can be viewed at:: gopher://jefferson.village.virginia.EDU:70/11/ pubs/listservs/spoons/sa-cyborgs.archive ********************************************************
