Por Rosa Dalla Costa
A parceria Intercom-Fnac Curitiba (PR) continuará ativa em 2010, e o primeiro Café está marcado para o próximo dia 10 de março, às 19h30, na Fnac do Park Shopping Barigui. Para falar sobre o tema Interatividade no telejornalismo local estarão presentes duas jornalistas da RPC, Mira Graçano e Cristina Graeml, e o jornalista da TV Educativa e professor da UFPR, Elson Faxina.
Os profissionais, com vasta experiência em telejornalismo local, contarão suas experiências sobre as transformações do telejornalismo local, principalmente a partir da utilização das Novas Tecnologias da Informação e da Comunicação, que têm possibilitado uma interação cada vez maior com o telespectador. Essa participação tem mudado o conteúdo dos telejornais? A interatividade cada vez mais evidente nas edições do dia a dia tem contribuído para uma maior participação democrática? Há diferenças nesta interatividade nas emissoras públicas e privadas?
O Café Intercom-Fnac começa o calendário 2010 em Curitiba com força total e convida profissionais, professores e alunos de comunicação, além de interessados em comunicação de um modo geral, a fazer parte desse debate.

Classificados nos prêmios estudantis terão colóquio acadêmico no Congresso da Intercom
Por Rosa Dalla Costa
Os Prêmios Estudantis da Intercom (Vera Giangrande, Francisco Morel e Freitas Nobre) terão uma novidade a partir de 2010. Os três primeiros colocados de cada um desses prêmios vão participar de um Colóquio Acadêmico no dia 1º de setembro, o primeiro dia do XXXIII Congresso Nacional da Intercom, a ser realizado em Caxias do Sul (RS).
No Colóquio, os autores dos trabalhos classificados apresentarão seus trabalhos diante de um júri composto por cinco professores, que apontarão – após a apresentação oral dos trabalhos – os primeiros, segundos e terceiros lugares de cada prêmio. A idéia do Colóquio é a de possibilitar uma aproximação entre os trabalhos classificados de iniciação científica, mestrado e doutorado, bem como uma troca de experiências e um debate acadêmico entre eles e o júri presente. Essa prática, aliás, foi iniciada nos primeiros anos dos prêmios da Intercom e será retomada a partir de 2010.
Os Prêmios Estudantis da Intercom visam incentivar e valorizar a produção científica na área da comunicação desde a graduação até o doutorado. Os melhores trabalhos apresentados nos Grupos de Trabalho são enviados a um júri com representantes de todas as regiões do país. Dessa avaliação dos trabalhos escritos saem três classificados em cada um dos prêmios, que devem então apresentar oralmente os trabalhos no Colóquio Acadêmico para um novo júri.
No Congresso da Intercom de 2009 foram classificados onze trabalhos para o Prêmio Vera Giangrande, vinte e quatro para o Francisco Morel e vinte para o Freitas Nobre. Nos meses de outubro, novembro e dezembro do ano passado esses textos foram lidos e avaliados por um júri formado pelos professores e sócios da Intercom Moacir Barbosa de Sousa, Maria Ataíde Malcher, Maria Helena Weber, Mônica Fort, Jorge Karam, Victor Gentilli, Maria Érica de Oliveira, Thalita Sasse, Ana Lúcia Enne, Maria do Socorro Veloso, Janaína Jordão, Luiza Elayne Correa Azevedo, Marco Roxo e Zeca Marques.
Os três trabalhos classificados em cada um dos prêmios são os seguintes:
Vera Giangrande
- O que você está fazendo? Um estudo da socialidade no twitter, de Filipe Speck, Nani Rios (UFSC)
- Flash Mobs, Movimentos que transcendem o Ciberespaço: uma ferramenta alternativa de comunicação, de Everton Bohn Kist (Unifra)
-Propaganda Política na Sociedade de Consumidores: o mercado eleitoral na disputa pela prefeitura de Juiz de Fora em 2008, de Mário Braga Magalhães Hubner Vieira (UFJF)
Francisco Morel
- A barreira Estético-Produtiva no Cinema Brasileiro, de Bruno Bueno Pinto Leites (Unisinos)
- Telenovela e mediações culturais na conformação da identidade feminina, de Lirian Sifuentes (UFSM)
- Por uma estética fotográfica do instante, de Gabriela Pereira de Freitas (UnB)

- Fanfics: A interação entre Leitura, Escrita e Tecnologias da Informação, de Sérgio Luiz Alves da Rocha (UERJ)
- Fotografia e tempo: vertigem e paradoxo, de Cláudia Gilmar Linhares Sanz (UFF)
Os demais trabalhos classificados receberão um certificado de menção honrosa dos respectivos prêmios, a ser enviado por email na ocasião do Congresso.
Mais informações sobre os prêmios e os resultados podem ser obtidas com a Diretora Cultural da Intercom, Profa. Rosa Dalla Costa, por meio do endereço rmdcosta@uol.com.br.
Revista Iniciacom é relançada com trabalhos indicados ao Prêmio Vera Giangrande
Após uma interrupção de três anos, a Intercom volta a publicar a Iniciacom – Revista Brasileira de Iniciação Científica em Comunicação Social, publicação eletrônica destinada a trabalhos oriundos de pesquisas desenvolvidas nos cursos de graduação em Comunicação Social de todo o país.
A nova edição da Revista Iniciacom – Vol. 2, nº 1 (2010) – pode ser acessada no endereço abaixo e traz uma seleção dos trabalhos apresentados no Intercom Jr., por ocasião do XXXII Congresso Nacional da INTERCOM, realizado na Universidade Positivo (Curitiba – PR) em 2009. Trata-se dos artigos indicados à fase final do Prêmio Vera Giangrande, que homenageia aquela que foi pioneira no cargo de ombudsman no Brasil.
A Revista Iniciacom foi lançada em março de 2006. Nesse mesmo ano, então sob a coordenação dos professores Robson Bastos e Fernando Almeida, lançou-se o número 2 da revista, que, entretanto, teve suas atividades interrompidas nos períodos seguintes.
As próximas edições passarão a ser elaboradas a partir da seleção de trabalhos recebidos em fluxo contínuo. O periódico manterá a periodicidade semestral e aceitará artigos, dossiês, resenhas e entrevistas. As colaborações devem serFonte: Jornal da Intercom

CfP DIGITAL GAME PLAY AS SOCIOTECHNICAL PRACTICE - EASST 2010
*************************************************************************************************************
EASST Conference 2010, European Association for the Study of Science
and Technology
'Practicing Science and Technology, Performing the Social,'
University of Trento, Italy, 2-4 September 2010. Abstract submission

**************************************************************************************************************
TRACK:
DIGITAL GAME PLAY AS SOCIOTECHNICAL PRACTICE
The Digital Game industry has become one of the fastest growing,
innovative and globalised industries in advanced Western economies and
Digital Games have become a key cultural artefact and leisure practice
in contemporary societies. Developing out of the American military
industrial and academic complex in the 1970s the study of Digital
Games design and play is the study of a range of sociotechnical
practices and the negotiations between a range of human and non-human
actors operating within systems of rules. The complexity of these
relationships brings forth a series of questions that can be
investigated using Science and Technology Studies approaches. However,
to date games studies, with few exceptions, have failed to adopt STS
approaches and the STS community has largely ignored this area of
study.
This track seeks to develop the relationship between the game studies
community and the STS community. Several research questions can be
used to guide this: What STS theories can be used to understand
Digital Games as sociotechnical phenomenon? Is the concept of practice
and the practice-based approach useful to investigate Digital Games?
Is there a relationship between power as inscribed and imposed by
artefacts and the technical dimensions of Digital Games? What rules
are inscribed into Digital Games technologies and what social worlds
do these rules describe? What contribution can the study of Digital
Games make to the STS discipline at large? And what contribution can
an STS approach make to game studies? Can we foresee an after-method
approach for Digital Games?
We invite papers that tackle the sociotechnical dimensions of Digital
Games and address some of the questions outlined above. Contributions
might include (but are not restricted to):
• Digital Games as material semiotic artefacts
• Digital Games as sociotechnical assemblages
• The mess of digital games
• Innovation in game design as actor-networking and social shaping
• Digital Game design and/or play as performance and practice
• Disruptive sociotechnical users’ practices (e.g. hacking, modding)
• The scripting of gendered gaming practices
• Governance and regulation of gaming practices

increasing mediation of everyday life in many parts of the world, this book
approaches online religion with a fresh perspective, to account for
contemporary developments in media and spirituality, with implications for
faith and other civic organizations.
Arguably, as institutionalized religions and movements rush to leverage the
Web to improve their reach, religious communication on the Internet takes an
increasingly significant role alongside more traditional venues for such
discourse. It may be, however, that religious use associated with new media
problematizes established faith rituals, and religious community building in
both its conception and operationalization. Changes in the Church can also
be conceived as intertwined with a range of other forms of social and
political developments, such that new media acts as an agent and practice to
challenge and transform the influence and authority of the Church.
Furthermore, as ³new² media is a moving target, there may be past concepts
that are more able to explain the nature of church life (such as evangelical
mission and systematic theology) or new concepts that are being developed
that are better able to address the diversity and complexity of contemporary
social and religious life (such as the ideas of social networking, viral
marketing and church branding).
This edited collection aims to address and inform such issues and debates by
offering new empirical, theoretical, and theological insights into how
religious life continues to transform and be transformed by these new
communication technologies. Current contributors, together with the
editors, include Knut Lundby, Heidi Campbell, Mark Johns and Jørgen
Straarup.
We hereby invite proposals for additional chapters (particularly in the
historical and theological sections as explained below) that will complement
and expand upon these contributions.
Section 1: Theoretical Approaches
This section maps the range of theoretical perspectives on religion and new
media. A number of different theories have proven useful for researchers and
scholars but new media also challenge our theoretical frameworks and
categories. How far do current theories ³work² in helping us research and
understand the complex interactions between religious life and new media
and how far are new theoretical understandings needed? And: what might
these new theoretical understandings ³look like² i.e., are new theoretical
frameworks and categories available that have yet to be fully explored by
scholars and researchers that can be argued to be potentially fruitful?
Section II: Historical Perspectives
This section discusses the presence and significance of historical
perspectives in church and new media research. Transformations in
communication media are deeply interwoven with the history and theology of
Christianity. In light of this history, how do churches respond to the
continued expansion of contemporary communication media? For example, given
the close correlations between distinctive forms and modalities of
communication including the broad categories of orality, literacy, print,
and the secondary orality/literacy of electronic media and conceptions of
self, community, and institutional authority, what does this history suggest
regarding the possible implications and challenges of contemporary shifts
towards new media?
Section III: Empirical Investigations
This section reports on the empirical research studies that investigate
emerging media and social media practices related to the Church. Disciplines
represented include but are not restricted to: sociology of religion,
ethnography and online ethnography, linguistics, and the social sciences and
humanities more broadly as represented within the field of computer-mediated
communication. Contributions may focus on, but not restricted to,
contemporary uses (successful and not so successful) of new media in the
life of religious communities (local, national, international). Guiding
questions for such research and studies include: Do the possibilities and
affordances of new media lead to genuinely new and demonstrable impacts on
the life of congregations? What factors appear to accompany whether or not
a given community or institution embraces or resists specific media? What
factors are at work in both successes and failures for faith believers and
organizations to adopt and adapt to new media? How does religiously related
new media use interact or affect the offline practices of established
religious organizations?
Section IV: Theological Reflections
The last section of the book provides theological reflections on the
Internet, to forward the development of a theology of the Internet which is
a budding field of research. Although practical perspectives and guidelines
for Internet use have been published, a more thorough theological analysis
of new media is missing. The need for theological clarification is apparent
since web-enabled applications challenge churches with a number of difficult
questions.

CHURCH AND NEW MEDIA: PERSPECTIVES, PRACTICES AND FUTURES
Editors: Pauline Hope Cheong, Peter Fischer-Nielsen, Stefan Gelfgren and
Charles Ess
Background and Rationale
This book brings together, for the first time in five years, a collection of
key articles in the area of religion and the Internet, particularly as new
media relates to church, mission and interfaith dialogue. In light of the
increasing mediation of everyday life in many parts of the world, this book
approaches online religion with a fresh perspective, to account for
contemporary developments in media and spirituality, with implications for
faith and other civic organizations.
Arguably, as institutionalized religions and movements rush to leverage the
Web to improve their reach, religious communication on the Internet takes an
increasingly significant role alongside more traditional venues for such
discourse. It may be, however, that religious use associated with new media
problematizes established faith rituals, and religious community building in
both its conception and operationalization. Changes in the Church can also
be conceived as intertwined with a range of other forms of social and
political developments, such that new media acts as an agent and practice to
challenge and transform the influence and authority of the Church.

www.iwips2010.org
London, England, 7 - 10 July 2010
to be held in Thames Valley University.
IWIPS 2010 committee is seeking submissions on the topics of localization and globalization, with an emphasis on this year's theme: Growing Global Design Communities. The objective of the 2010 theme is to focus on the impact of international design teams on the design, evaluation, and development of products and systems. IWIPS invites several types of submissions, including papers, case studies, research-in-progress and tutorials. All submissions are due 15 March 2010. Accepted submissions (except tutorials) will be published in the IWIPS 2010 proceedings.
Suggested Topics for Submissions
As the world's economy recovers from the downturn, the need increases for effective, efficient, and socially responsible strategies for supporting global design communities. Strategies that address both business and human issues are of great importance. Topics of interest for IWIPS 2010 include, but are not limited to the following:
Cross-cultural issues in IT design
User centric strategies for economic and community development IT projects
Revised models for global IT off-shoring, outsourcing and distributed resources
Sociotechnical design and evaluation frameworks
Methods for software localization / globalization
Designing for trust
Dealing with intercultural issues in participatory design
The impact of Social Networks and other CMC tools across cultural boundaries
Interactions between culture and user-centred design
Managing geographically dispersed multicultural design communities
Localising usability evaluation and requirements gathering techniques
Submission Types
Papers - Papers are formal reports of completed research, organized on a modified APA model. The length of the paper should be no more than 10 pages in the proceedings format.
Case Studies - Case studies are structured descriptions of the lessons learned in applied design, evaluation, or development of products or systems within industry. The length of case studies should be between 4 to 8 pages in the proceedings format.

Critical Point of View: Wikipedia Research Conference (Amsterdam, March 26/27)
Critical Point of View: Second international conference of the CPOV Wikipedia Research Initiative
Date: 26-27 March 2010
Location: OBA (Public Library Amsterdam, next to Amsterdam central station), Oosterdokskade 143, Amsterdam
Organized by the Institute of Network Cultures Amsterdam, in cooperation with the Centre for Internet and Society in Bangalore, India.
Website: www.networkcultures.org/cpov
Discussion List: http://p10.alfaservers.com/mailman/listinfo/cpov_listcultures.org
Wikipedia is at the brink of becoming the de facto global reference of dynamic knowledge. The heated debates over its accuracy, anonymity, trust, vandalism and expertise only seem to fuel further growth of Wikipedia and its user base. Apart from leaving its modern counterparts Britannica and Encarta in the dust, such scale and breadth places Wikipedia on par with such historical milestones as Pliny the Elder's Naturalis Historia, the Ming Dynasty's Wen-hsien ta-ch' eng, and the key work of French Enlightenment, the Encyclopédie. The multilingual Wikipedia as digital collaborative and fluid knowledge production platform might be said to be the most visible and successful example of the migration of FLOSS (Free/Libre/Open Source Software) principles into mainstream culture. However, such celebration should contain critical insights, informed by the changing realities of the Internet at large and the Wikipedia project in particular.
The CPOV Research Initiative was founded from the urge to stimulate critical Wikipedia research: quantitative and qualitative research that could benefit both the wide user-base and the active Wikipedia community itself. On top of this, Wikipedia offers critical insights into the contemporary status of knowledge, its organizing principles, function, and impact; its production styles, mechanisms for conflict resolution and power (re-)constitution. The overarching research agenda is at once a philosophical, epistemological and theoretical investigation of knowledge artifacts, cultural production and social relations, and an empirical investigation of the specific phenomenon of the Wikipedia.
Conference Themes: Wiki Theory, Encyclopedia Histories, Wiki Art, Wikipedia Analytics, Designing Debate and Global Issues and Outlooks.
Confirmed speakers: Florian Cramer (DE/NL), Andrew Famiglietti (UK), Stuart Geiger (USA), Hendrik-Jan Grievink (NL), Charles van den Heuvel (NL), Jeanette Hofmann (DE), Athina Karatzogianni (UK), Scott Kildall (USA), Patrick Lichty (USA), Hans Varghese Mathews (IN), Teemu Mikkonen (FI), Mayo Fuster Morell (IT), Mathieu O'Neil (AU), Felipe Ortega (ES), Dan O'Sullivan (UK), Joseph Reagle (USA), Ramón Reichert (AU), Richard Rogers (USA/NL), Alan Shapiro (USA/DE), Maja van der Velden (NL/NO), Gérard Wormser (FR).
Editorial team: Sabine Niederer and Geert Lovink (Amsterdam), Nishant Shah and Sunil Abraham (Bangalore), Johanna Niesyto (Siegen), Nathaniel Tkacz (Melbourne). Project manager CPOV Amsterdam: Margreet Riphagen. Research intern: Juliana Brunello. Production intern: Serena Westra.
The CPOV conference in Amsterdam will be the second conference of the CPOV Wikipedia Research Initiative. The launch of the initiative took place in Bangalore India, with the conference WikiWars in January 2010. After the first two events, the CPOV organization will work on producing a reader, to be launched early 2011.

Appel à publication « industries créatives
Appel à publication : « Industries créatives »
revue tic&société (http://www.ticetsociete.org)
La tentation est de plus en plus forte de regrouper des activités très hétéroclites sous une catégorie unique, celle des industries créatives. La référence à la « créativité » s'est imposée comme une ressource centrale dans les discours et les projets de nombre d'instances : institutions internationales, nationales ou locales, groupements d'acteurs économiques, agences de conseils, etc. Des consultants et des universitaires cherchent à établir une conjonction structurante entre activités artistiques, production de biens culturels industriels et publicité, architecture, tourisme, design, mode, voire gastronomie. La créativité est perçue comme une ressource industrielle et collective pouvant être transformée en ressource économique et la création se voit attribuer un rôle central dans la production et la valorisation de divers biens et services.
Plus précisément, il est suggéré que des contenus culturels et informationnels sont associés à des produits ou supports dont l'objet principal n'est pas d'offrir des produits culturels ou informationnels. Ensuite, les modes et logiques de fonctionnement propres aux industries culturelles sont présentés comme devant s'étendre à des activités non culturelles mais qui incorporent la création dans leurs procès de création, production, diffusion et valorisation. Enfin, des politiques publiques nationales, régionales et locales sont développées ou envisagées. Elles incluent les industries culturelles, voire éducatives, dans cet ensemble plus vaste que constituent les industries créatives.
À l'occasion de l'affirmation de la notion d'industries créatives, nous proposons aux contributeurs et contributrices de nous envoyer une proposition qui prenne place à l'intérieur ou au carrefour des axes de réflexion suivants tout en tenant compte de l'importance de situer leur analyse dans le cadre des rapports entre les technologies de l'information et de la communication (TIC) et la société qui constitue la raison d'être de notre revue.
Nous sommes plus spécifiquement intéressés par les travaux qui mettront l'accent sur les modalités de production, reproduction, diffusion, promotion et valorisation des produits créatifs. La notion d'industries créatives porte-t-elle en elle des formes de rationalisation de la création ? Quel rôle joue la création participative dans l'affirmation de la notion d'industries créatives ? Quelle est la singularité du régime de la créativité ainsi proposée ?
Nous nous intéressons aussi aux liens entre ce label et les problématiques plus anciennes consacrées à la notion d'industries culturelles. Dans quelle mesure est-il possible de faire des liens au niveau du processus de création entre des activités jusqu'alors analysées de façon distincte ? Les spécificités des industries culturelles sont-elles généralisables à l'ensemble des industries créatives ou perdent-elles certaines de leurs spécificités avec ce nouveau cadre analytique ?
En complément, il sera possible de s'interroger :
*sur la généalogie de la notion d'industries créatives. Qui sont les acteurs sociaux qui portent cette notion ? Quels contenus cette notion véhicule-t-elle ? À qui est-elle susceptible de profiter ?
* sur les conséquences potentielles de ces changements sur les politiques publiques mises en place, dont les dispositifs favorisant la diversité culturelle. Les industries culturelles risquent-elles de perdre une partie de leur spécificité, en particulier dans les politiques publiques, locales et nationales ? La question des échanges culturels internationaux, et des règles qui les encadrent, se trouve-t-elle posée en des termes nouveaux ? Par ailleurs, un nouveau partage entre marché et intervention publique ne tend-t-il pas à s'instaurer ?
tic&société accueille des contributions interdisciplinaires et internationales proposant une perspective théorique, une enquête de terrain ou réunissant ces deux approches. La priorité sera donnée aux articles qui répondent à l'un des objectifs proposés ci-dessus ou qui les recoupent. Les contributeurs sont invités à soumettre leurs textes en français, voire en anglais ou en espagnol (mais dans ce cas accompagnés d'un résumé de 3000 caractères en français, en anglais et en espagnol). Les textes doivent faire environ 40000 caractères espaces compris. Les auteurs sont invités à respecter les consignes concernant la mise en forme du manuscrit (consignes disponibles sur le site de la revue, voir la rubrique « Consignes aux auteurs »). Les manuscrits feront l'objet de deux évaluations selon la procédure de lecture à l'aveugle. Les contributions en anglais et espagnol seront évaluées puis traduites en français dans la mesure du possible.
Les textes doivent être envoyés par courriel au plus tard le 30 avril 2010 à l'attention de Philippe Bouquillion ou de Yolande Combès, coordonnateurs de ce numéro thématique « Industries créatives » : p.bouquillion@free.fr ou yolande.combes@wanadoo.fr
Il est aussi possible de proposer des textes hors-thème. Nous nous réservons toutefois le droit, soit de les diffuser dans la rubrique « Varia », soit de les conserver pour un prochain numéro thématique. Merci, dans ce cas, d'envoyer les textes à l'adresse suivante : comite-editorial@ticetsociete.org

Extended CFP MEA Convention June 10-13, 2010 University of Maine
Extended Call for Papers
Media Ecology Association
11th Annual Convention
June 10-13, 2010
University of Maine, Orono
Media Ecology and Natural Environments
The subject of media ecology was formed with two biological metaphors in
mind, Neil Postman wrote in "The Humanism of Media Ecology" (2000). In
biology, a medium is a substance within which a culture grows. Change
"substance" to "technology" and media ecology defines medium as a
technology within which a culture grows, forming its politics, social
organization, and ways of thinking. In biology, ecology is the study of
what constitutes a balanced and healthy natural environment. Media
ecology refers to ways that cultures maintain a healthy symbolic balance
to help keep our natural world in order. Media ecology seeks to make us
more aware that we live in two different environments. We live in both
the natural environment of air, water, animals, and plants, and the
media environment of language, images, symbols, and technologies that
shape us.
The 11th Annual Convention of the Media Ecology Association
<http://www.media-ecology.org> invites papers, panels, creative
projects, and other proposals exploring all facets of media ecology and
those that focus on the convention theme, examining the connections
between the two ecologies, one of culture and communication, the other
of nature and the physical sciences. Convention submissions are welcome
that draw on a wide variety of perspectives in environmental studies in
the sciences and communication, from issues such as climate change,
biodiversity, acid rain, and wildlife ecology. How do media ecology and
natural ecology intersect? How do ecologists in humanities, social
sciences, and natural sciences create dialogue with each other? Can
scholarship bring artists, communication researchers, and scientists
together? What is the relationship between primary natural and virtual
media realities? What is the history of environmental thought?
Electronic submissions of abstracts, full papers, and panel proposals
are preferred and should be sent by March 1 to Paul Grosswiler
<paulg@maine.edu>, Chair, Department of Communication and Journalism,
420 Dunn Hall, University of Maine, Orono, ME 04460. A maximum of two
submissions per author will be accepted. Authors who wish their papers
to be considered for the Top Paper or Top Student Paper award must
indicate that on their submissions. All submissions will be acknowledged.
The convention will be sponsored by the Vice President for Research, the
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and the Department of
Communication and Journalism at the University of Maine. Campus housing
will be available. Tours of Maine's natural environments will be offered.

Memória da imprensa
Há décadas a historiografia contemporânea tem incorporado a imprensa como fonte fundamental para se compreender momentos históricos e a atuação de protagonistas. Mas a fragilidade e as limitações do papel impresso, especialmente seu acesso, representam dificuldades aos pesquisadores.
Com o objetivo de ampliar o acesso a jornais e revistas do século 19 e início do século 20 no Brasil, o Arquivo Público do Estado de São Paulo acaba de lançar o site Memória da Imprensa, uma seleção de periódicos digitalizados do acervo da instituição.
O serviço reúne por enquanto 14 títulos de jornais e revistas de época, que permitem acompanhar a trajetória da imprensa paulista e brasileira a partir da seleção de exemplares de 1854 a 1981.
Jornais e revistas que já estão em formato digital.Parte do acervo já digitalizado ajuda a reconstituir momentos importantes dos mais de 200 anos de história da imprensa no Brasil. Pesquisadores já podem acessar desde publicações que marcaram época, como a revista A Cigarra (1914-1975) e o jornal Última Hora (1951-1971), até títulos menos conhecidos, como o jornal sindical Notícias Gráficas (1945-1964) e o anarquista La Barricata (1912-1913).
O Memória da Imprensa já soma mais de 1.670 páginas de jornais. O Arquivo Público do Estado de São Paulo é um dos maiores arquivos públicos brasileiros. Sua hemeroteca tem cerca de 1,2 mil títulos e 32 mil exemplares de revistas e mais de 200 títulos de jornais.
Já estão disponíveis no site as revistas O Malho (1902-1954), Panóplia (1901-1935), Anauê! (1935), Vida Moderna (1907-1925) e Escrita (1975-1988), além dos jornais Lanterna (1901-1935), Acção (1936), Germinal (1902-1913) e Correio Paulistano (1854-1963), este último o primeiro diário da província de São Paulo.

Critical Point of View: Wikipedia Research Conference (Amsterdam, March 26/27)
Critical Point of View: Second international conference of the CPOV Wikipedia Research Initiative
Date: 26-27 March 2010
Location: OBA (Public Library Amsterdam, next to Amsterdam central station), Oosterdokskade 143, Amsterdam
Organized by the Institute of Network Cultures Amsterdam, in cooperation with the Centre for Internet and Society in Bangalore, India.

Discussion List: http://p10.alfaservers.com/mailman/listinfo/cpov_listcultures.org
Wikipedia is at the brink of becoming the de facto global reference of dynamic knowledge. The heated debates over its accuracy, anonymity, trust, vandalism and expertise only seem to fuel further growth of Wikipedia and its user base. Apart from leaving its modern counterparts Britannica and Encarta in the dust, such scale and breadth places Wikipedia on par with such historical milestones as Pliny the Elder's Naturalis Historia, the Ming Dynasty's Wen-hsien ta-ch' eng, and the key work of French Enlightenment, the Encyclopédie. The multilingual Wikipedia as digital collaborative and fluid knowledge production platform might be said to be the most visible and successful example of the migration of FLOSS (Free/Libre/Open Source Software) principles into mainstream culture. However, such celebration should contain critical insights, informed by the changing realities of the Internet at large and the Wikipedia project in particular.
The CPOV Research Initiative was founded from the urge to stimulate critical Wikipedia research: quantitative and qualitative research that could benefit both the wide user-base and the active Wikipedia community itself. On top of this, Wikipedia offers critical insights into the contemporary status of knowledge, its organizing principles, function, and impact; its production styles, mechanisms for conflict resolution and power (re-)constitution. The overarching research agenda is at once a philosophical, epistemological and theoretical investigation of knowledge artifacts, cultural production and social relations, and an empirical investigation of the specific phenomenon of the Wikipedia.
Conference Themes: Wiki Theory, Encyclopedia Histories, Wiki Art, Wikipedia Analytics, Designing Debate and Global Issues and Outlooks.
Confirmed speakers: Florian Cramer (DE/NL), Andrew Famiglietti (UK), Stuart Geiger (USA), Hendrik-Jan Grievink (NL), Charles van den Heuvel (NL), Jeanette Hofmann (DE), Athina Karatzogianni (UK), Scott Kildall (USA), Patrick Lichty (USA), Hans Varghese Mathews (IN), Teemu Mikkonen (FI), Mayo Fuster Morell (IT), Mathieu O'Neil (AU), Felipe Ortega (ES), Dan O'Sullivan (UK), Joseph Reagle (USA), Ramón Reichert (AU), Richard Rogers (USA/NL), Alan Shapiro (USA/DE), Maja van der Velden (NL/NO), Gérard Wormser (FR).
Editorial team: Sabine Niederer and Geert Lovink (Amsterdam), Nishant Shah and Sunil Abraham (Bangalore), Johanna Niesyto (Siegen), Nathaniel Tkacz (Melbourne). Project manager CPOV Amsterdam: Margreet Riphagen. Research intern: Juliana Brunello. Production intern: Serena Westra.
The CPOV conference in Amsterdam will be the second conference of the CPOV Wikipedia Research Initiative. The launch of the initiative took place in Bangalore India, with the conference WikiWars in January 2010. After the first two events, the CPOV organization will work on producing a reader, to be launched early 2011.
