Abstract (in English)

Matthew G. Kirschenbaum, a professor of English at the University of Maryland and director of the Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities, explored questions of technology, research, content and writing at the intersection of literary and technological history during an ATLAS Speaker Series presentation Oct. 1, 2012.

Drawing from his book, “Track Changes: A Literary History of Word Processing,” Kirschenbaum talked about how word processors have changed the history and culture of authorship and how technology has changed the relationship of writers to their craft. 

This event was a collaboration between the ATLAS Institute, CU’s Department of English, The ICJMT (Information, Communication, Journalism, Media and Technology) Initiative, University Libraries ScriptaLab and Friends of the Libraries.

The ATLAS Speaker Series is made possible by a generous donation by Idit Harel Caperton and Anat Harel.

Abstract (in English)

"Last year I was invited by Sue Thomas and Kate Pullinger to go up to Leicester to give a lecture about the impact of blogging on writing at their Narrative Laboratory for the Creative Industries seminar, Blogs, Communities and Social Software. This year, I have a return invitation, not to lecture in person again but to be one of several guest lecturers contributing to De Montfort's Online MA in Creative Writing and New Media via a variety of online venues....

"My topic this year is 'open publishing' and everything related, and in the spirit of openness, transparency and discussion, and with the realisation that there are a lot of people out there who know a lot more than I do about this, I have decided to publish all my research here, as I go along. So you'll get to see all my sources, my half-formed thoughts, my wrong turns and my wild goose chases - and you'll be able to join in now, if you feel like it."

Suw Charman delivered her guest lecture via the 'Open Publishing' category in her blog, 'Strange Attractor'.
