  "SOUND AND THE MOVING IMAGE: VOICE, MUSIC, EFFECTS"

A three year international research and development project, which will
produce a comprehensive text on the use and history of music, voice and
sound in film, TV, multi-media etc has recently commenced.

This is an alert call for all persons with an interest in suggesting topic
areas, who might be interested in writing on specific subjects, and/or who
have a strong research and/or practice based interest in this field. You
are invited to email the soundmovingimage_at_netscape.net site to register
your interests.

This is a call for papers for the 4th Issue of M/C/T a journal/e-zine
concerned with Media, Culture and Technology. For this issue, we have the
following special theme:

The Fake Issue

What's real? What's true? These may seem like outdated questions in these
hyper wired times of ours. Indeed, as Jean Baudrillard pointed out years
ago, the question of authenticity no longer matters in the same way, now
that we are fully immersed in an environment of virtual simulation. The
quest for authenticity is not only pointless but dissatisfying as well.

Please distribute to all faculty in this department. Feel free to send to
other departments. Thank you.
