DESCRIPTION: \n\nHardwired Temporalities is a two-day symposium that will s
 tage an important encounter between scholars working on the significance o
 f technology and temporality and their ramifications for social relations\
 , stratifications of power\, and ways of life. International and interdisc
 iplinary in scope\, the symposium brings together a conversation on tempor
 al artifacts and the lived experience of time between researchers working 
 in the fields of communication and media studies\, cultural studies\, hist
 ory of science and technology\, cinema studies\, social science\, and comp
 uter science.\n\nThe event will interrogate the ways in which timekeeping 
 technologies\, time-management practices\, and temporal infrastructures in
 fluence and coordinate the movements and labor of people\, matter\, and si
 gns and how these technologies—from medieval clocks to smartphones and amb
 ient technologies—feed back into temporal orders that both shape and trans
 form socioeconomic realities\, cultural and artistic practice\, and contem
 porary scholarship on time and media.\n\nThe keynote speaker is John Durha
 m Peters\, A. Craig Baird Professor of Communication Studies at the Univer
 sity of Iowa. All speakers represent a cross section of the most innovativ
 e directions of contemporary media research. Nearly half the researchers h
 ave devoted a significant amount of their research to critically investiga
 ting relations of temporality\, while the other half have been invited bec
 ause of their wide-ranging expertise in contemporary network and infrastru
 cture studies to reengage their objects through specific questions of temp
 orality. Creating a conversation between these diverse voices\, the sympos
 ium aims to reevaluate theories of temporality through fresh case studies 
 and new empirical evidence.\n\nHardwired Temporalities is free and open to
  the public. To help us prepare the event we request that you register for
