*The Urban Culture area of MPCA/ACA* seeks presenters who explore the 
varied ways in which humans inhabit the city (real, imaginary, lost) and 
negotiate their urban desires. Papers addressing issues such as 
displacement, multi-cultural encounter, hybridization, and the 
production or loss of public space in the context of the metropolitan 
city are welcome.

How do the home, the museum, world's fairs, ethnic food, architecture, 
spoken and written word, street performance, photography, film, sound, 
music, and movement, help us inscribe the city and to what end? How does 
the city inscribe us? Historical or ethnographic studies of cities, 
poetic accounts of personal geographies through cities, and explorations 
of highly orchestrated or surprisingly improvised events in designated 
areas in the city are encouraged. If interested in participating in a 
workshop on "writing the urban," in addition to presenting a paper, 
please, indicate so.

Please, send your 1-page paper abstracts and 1-paragraph recent bios as 
virus-free, Word attachments, to Blagovesta Momchedjikova, 
bmm202@nyu.edu, by June 25th, 2004.

The Mid-Atlantic Popular Culture/American Culture Association meets in 
Buffalo, New York, November 5-7th, 2004.
