network and wider social formations. Themes of recent issues of the =20

Fibreculture Journal=92s interests, as below.

at <http://journal.fibreculture.org/> . These guidelines need to be =20
followed in all cases. Contributions should be sent electronically, =20
as attachments, to Andrew Murphie at a.murphie_at_unsw.edu.au. Articles =20

always able to publish articles that require extensive editing in =20
order to conform to the standards of the journal.

The deadline for submissions is April 30, 2006.

The Fibreculture Journal encourages critical and speculative =20
interventions in the debate and discussions concerning information =20
and communication technologies and their policy frameworks, network =20
cultures and their informational logic, new media forms and their =20
deployment, and the possibilities of socio-technical invention and =20
sustainability. Other broad topics of interest include the cultural =20
contexts, philosophy and politics of:

:: information and creative industries
:: national strategies for innovation, research and development
:: education
:: media and culture, and
:: new media arts

The Fibreculture Journal encourages submissions that extend research =20
into critical and investigative networked theories, knowledges and =20
practices.
