Academic Conference
Academic Conference--looking for papers on ARGs

A friend of mine has put out a call for papers as part of the International Conference for the Fantastic Arts. ICFA is a conference held in Florida in March. She's particularly keen on people who are doing work in RPG and ARG. ICFA itself is a lot of fun and I know people who go year after year. It's a little like a cross between a science fiction convention and an academic conference. Neil Gaimen has gone in the past. I don't know if anybody here is into the whole academic thing, but I figured you guys were something of the world's foremost experts on ARGs.

COMMUNITIES & CULTURE IN THE FANTASTIC [formerly PCVA: All aspects of the fantastic in fan cultures and communities, including fan fiction, comics/graphic novels, filking, conventions, hypertexts, viral marketing, RPG]. Division Head: Barbara Lucas, VIS, 31225 Bainbridge Rd, Suite M, Solon OH 44139 (BARBEDWRITINGSPLATYAHOO.COM).

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
In order to be considered for the 2007 program, your proposal to (1) read a paper, (2) recruit and chair a paper session, or (3) organize and chair a panel discussion must be date-stamped no later than November 30, 2006; electronic correspondence is welcome. Proposals must be sent to the appropriate Division Head (address above). Advise the Division Head if you would like to volunteer to chair a paper session. Proposals must include a 500-word abstract and appropriate bibliography indicating the project's scholarly or theoretical context. Presenters must be members of IAFA at the time of the conference. Be sure to indicate all audio-visual equipment needs in this initial proposal; later A/V requests cannot be guaranteed.
