This new thread presents in short order what scholars today in the field ofliterature, science, and the arts are reading and viewing.
At the December 2007 Chicago meeting of the Modern Language Association, Henry Turner and I decided to adjust the Special Session format by having our panelists present ‘annotated bibliographies’ in our field of research, namely: conjunctions of literature and science. In our discussions with colleagues at the Society for Literature, Science, and the Arts, we expressed surprise and some disappointment that the presence of new media had, thus far, little positive effect on the way scholarship is presented at conferences - not to mention that conferences themselves were expanding in number and further fragmenting into specializations.
music/sound/noise is an ebr thread.

As "sound" approaches ever more closely the condition of music it too approaches a kind of writing, which is then retroactively revealed to have been "noisy" all along.
