INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
CULTURAL ATTITUDES TOWARDS TECHNOLOGY AND COMMUNICATION (CATaC'98)

1-3 August 1998, Science Museum, London

catac98@arch.usyd.edu.au

CATaC'98 will explore the complex interactions between culture,
technology, and communication, as these shape local and global
responses to and uses of CMC technologies. CATaC conjoins current
theoretical research and praxis of cross-cultural communication
mediated by new technologies. We seek to avoid the overt and covert
forms of ethnocentrism often at work in current Internet and Web
practices and thereby contribute to a better understanding of the
limits and strengths of these technologies as global communication
media.

Information is the interface between linguistics, logic and computation.
Foundational, introductory and advanced courses together with workshops
cover a wide variety of topics within six areas of interest: Logic,
Computation, Language, Logic and Computation, Computation and Language,
Language and Logic. Previous summer schools have been highly successful,
attracting around 500 students from Europe and elsewhere. The school has

Knowing of a Time, Knowing the Time

Boston University, Boston, MA

November 8 & 9, 1998

The third annual conference of the Center for Millennial Studies
addresses two themes: 1) traditions, around the world and at any point
in time, which anticipate the transformation of the world; and 2) the
role of dating and chronology in inciting and postponing millennial
expectations, and the specific effects an imminent date can have on the
behavior of apocalyptic believers.

these discoveries ... were not achieved through guesswork: our seamen set off
well trained and provided with instruments and rules of astronomy and
geometry."
