                          Call for Papers: 'print'

Print culture has dominated the world - has left its imprint - for the
last five hundred years, and traces back to Chinese inventions some two
millennia earlier. Today its hegemony is under threat, some say, from
the new communication technologies, while other claim that it will
continue to metamorphose and even grow in strength as (hyper)text-based
literacies are ever more crucial for personal and professional success.
Whichever side of the coin we look at, the transitions in print culture
are uneven and incomplete at this point - the paperless office has not
arrived, and (our own and our many colleagues' efforts notwithstanding)
electronic text remains seen as less trustworthy than what is printed
'in black and white'.

Share with us your views on print culture and its future. We'll publish
them - electronically...


The 'print' issue of M/C Journal will discuss these and other themes.
Send us good work about bad ideas in the form of a 1000-1500 word
article to print@journal.media-culture.org.au.

Article deadline:     8 April 2005
Issue release date:   3 June 205
