Hello all,

Caroline Jack (a Ph.D. student in communication at Cornell) and I are
putting together an International Communication Association (ICA)
conference panel for the Communication History division on historical cases
of technological reuse, revisioning, and repurposing, and are looking for
fellow panelists with a diverse range of backgrounds and perspectives.

Panel Description:

"Use and reuse factor into the development and deployment of communication
technologies among individuals, groups, and organizations across history in
non-linear and unexpected ways.  This panel focuses attention on historical
cases and themes of reuse, revision and repurposing in areas including (but
not limited to) devices, software, practices and techniques."

If you are interested in taking part or have any questions, please email
Meryl Alper at malper [at] usc [dot] edu.  Feel free to share this call for
panelists with others in your network.

Best,
Meryl
