CFP: MEMO sessions for 2010 Kzoo Congress


The 45th International Congress on Medieval Studies (2010)

MEMO is soliciting proposals for two sessions to take place at the 45th (2010) International Congress on Medieval Studies. Please send abstracts of no more than 300 words and a completed Participant Information Form (available on the International Congress website at http://www.wmich.edu/medieval/congress/submissions/index.html#Paper), as well as any questions you may have, to:

N. M. Heckel, 132 Penhurst St., Rochester NY 14619

The deadline for proposals for both the paper session and the workshop is September 15th .

*Sessions:*

* /*Paper Session:*/ *Time, Space, Place: Geographies and Cartographies in Neomedieval Electronic Media*
This session is concerned not only the maps and virtual landscapes created for and used in neomedieval electronic media, but also with the "virtual landscape" of the internet, and the way that it
lends itself to the creation of neomedieval communities and connections vastly different from the real world in which participants live.

* */Workshop:/ Gaming Neomedievally: A Festive Video Game Workshop
and Poster Session*
The gaming workshop and poster session has grown since MEMO started it a few years ago, and once again we're looking for academic gamers who would be willing to share their favorite neo-medieval games with the rest of the medievalist community. Participants need to be able to provide the game and the system to run it (whether a laptop or game console); other A/V equipment such as televisions can be reserved through Congress channels. In addition to bringing the game, participants are asked to provide an informational "poster" that explores some aspect(s) of the game's neo-medievalism. Posters can be in hard copy format or in Powerpoint; if the latter, please also bring or request on your A/V sheet a laptop on which to run the presentation.
