Subject: Conference on Technology, Knowledge and Society, Berkeley,
February 2005 - Call for Papers


Dear Colleague,

I am writing to you on behalf of the Conference Organising Committee to
inform you of the call-for-papers for:

THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON TECHNOLOGY, KNOWLEDGE AND SOCIETY
University of California, Berkeley, Friday 18 - Sunday 20 February 2005
http://www.Technology-Conference.com

This conference takes a broad and cross-disciplinary approach to technology
in society. With a particular focus on digital information and
communications technologies, the interests addressed by the conference
include: human usability, technologies for citizenship and community
participation, and learning technologies. Participants will include
researchers, teachers and practitioners whose interests are either technical
or humanistic, or whose work crosses over between the applied technological
and social sciences.

As well as an impressive line up of international main speakers, the
conference will also include numerous paper, workshop and colloquium
presentations. We would particularly like to invite you to respond to the
conference call for papers. Papers submitted for the conference proceedings
will be fully peer-refereed and published in print and electronic formats in
the new International Journal of Technology, Knowledge and Society. If you
are unable to attend the conference in person, virtual registrations are
also available which allow you to submit a paper for refereeing and possible
publication in this fully refereed academic journal, as well as access to
the electronic version of the conference proceedings. The deadline for the
first round call for papers is 30 November 2004. Proposals are reviewed
within two weeks of submission.

Full details of the conference, including an online call for papers form,
are to be found at the conference website.

Yours Sincerely,


Dr Christopher Scanlon
The Globalism Institute
RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia
