    Local and Mobile: linking mobilities, mobile communication and locative media

    When: March 16-18, 2012
    Where: North Carolina State University, Park Shops Building (BNUM. 33), Raleigh, NC
    Keynote Speakers:
    Paul Dourish (University of California, Irvine)
    Rich Ling (IT University of Copenhagen)
    Teri Rueb (University of Buffalo, SUNY)

    NC State University will be hosting Local and Mobile, a joint international conference of the Pan-American Mobilities Network and the Cosmobilities Network, and the 3rd annual research symposium of the Communication, Rhetoric and Digital Media (CRDM) program at NCSU. The first mobilities conference, Cultures of Movement: Mobile Subjects, Communities, and Technologies in the Americas took place in 2010 in Victoria, British Columbia (Canada). The second instantiation of the conference, Mobilities in Motion: New Approaches to Emergent and Future Mobilities happened this year in Philadelphia.

    Mobilities has become an important framework to understand and analyze contemporary social, spatial, economic and political practices. Being interdisciplinary in its nature, Mobilities focuses on the systematic movement of people, goods and information that “travel” around the world in rates much higher (or much slower) than before. As such, mobility studies challenge traditional scholarship that often ignores the social dimensions of mobility, overlooking how travel, movement, and communication and transportation networks help to constitute modern societies and communities. Mobility has always been critical for the creation of social networks and to the development of connections to places. In addition, Mobilities contributes to study of the technological, social and cultural developments in transportation, border control, mobile communication, “intelligent” infrastructure, surveillance.

    MEDIA ARCHITECTURE COLLOQUIUM

    MEDIA ARCHITECTURE COLLOQUIUM
    2-5pm, Wednesday, March 17, 2010
    301 Crosby Hall, South Campus
    University at Buffalo

    This half-day event brings together artists, architects and researchers to examine the evolving overlaps, intersections, and exchanges between the fields of Architecture and Media Art in the 21st century. As media, communication and information systems become embedded in and distributed throughout the material fabric of our daily lives, new opportunities (and dilemmas) emerge for the design and construction of the built environment. At the same time, these pervasive transformations in how we access, consume and produce contemporary media and information challenge traditional models for how we conceive, perceive and interact within physical space. Bringing together faculty from the departments of Architecture and Media Study at the University at Buffalo with faculty from the Media Architecture program at the Bauhaus–Universität, Weimar, Germany, this international gathering aims to highlight emerging transdisciplinary practices that integrate architectonic and medial space in the creation and construction of these emerging hybrid environments.

    The program consists of a six presentations and pair of panel discussions accompanied by a live, networked event/performance involving students from both Buffalo and Weimar.
