[-empyre-] Seeking new moderators for our moderating team at -empyre soft-skinned space

[Renate Ferro]

The -empyre moderating team is looking for energetic new media
theorists, practitioners, curators, programmers or others with
interests in new media and other emergent forms who represent
perspectives that are not already represented on the moderating team,
We are particularly interested in welcoming those from outside North
America given the broad global audience of subscribers we enlist.  We
ask that you send an email of intent to Renate Ferro.

See info below and at our website:  http://empyre.library.cornell.edu

-empyre- is a global community of new media artists, curators,
theorists, producers, and others who participate in monthly thematic
discussions via an e-mail listserv.

-empyre- facilitates online discussion encouraging critical
perspectives on contemporary cross-disciplinary issues, practices and
events in networked media. The list is currently co-managed by Renate
Ferro (USA) and Tim Murray (USA) with the moderating team of Simon
Biggs (UK), and Patrick Lichty (USA). Melinda Rackham (AU) initiated
-empyre- as part of her doctoral research in 2002.

-empyre- also welcomes guest moderators who organize discussions for
one month. After more than ten years, -empyre- soft-skinned space
continues to be a platform dedicated to the plurality of global
perspectives reaching out beyond Australia and the Northern Hemisphere
to greater Asia and Latin America.

-empyre- website is generously hosted by the Rose Goldsen Archive of
New Media Art, a repository of emergent ideas amongst those working at
the leading edge of contemporary artistic practice. All discussions
are currently archived by Pandora, a project of the National Library
of Australia. Both of these institutions are dedicated to preserving
online publications of national significance for future generations.
