[Air-L] Reminder: CFP - Writing in a Digital Age due 10/17

[Les Hutchinson]

Hi all,

A reminder that our web text collection on topics surrounding surveillance,
privacy, and writing infrastructures is accepting proposals until 10/17. We
are very interested in inter/cross-disciplinary book chapters that focus on
identity, communities, and cultures.

If interested, please go to this link:

A sample of what we're interested in include:

  *   how community members respond to local to national events where acts
of sur- and sous-veillance occur to protect the interests of those in
authority and those of the citizenry, e.g., Ferguson, Flint, and online.
  *   ways surveillance impact culture(s) and influence daily habits and/or
lives as it connects to digital rhetoric and writing, e.g., algorithmic
discrimination, fitness trackers, Internet of Things objects, social media
habits, intellectual property.
  *   how digital rhetoric and writing scholars/educators or communicators
inform public and private industries to make reforms to surveillance
practices.
  *   how writing educators, WPAs, and administrators address ways
surveillance and privacy impact student & faculty composing acts and
student identity formation.

<mailto:digitalwriting at protonmail.com>Again, the deadline for 500-word
proposals of webtexts is October 17, 2016. We will notify authors on
