>featuring plenary speakers, a debate between Steve Fuller and Bruno
>Latour, and a retrospective of the films of Trinh-Minh-ha, the Vietnamese

>after each plenary, and at the end of each trio of parallel session papers
>or colloquia [we are accepting proposals for 3-paper or 6-paper
>colloquia]. All discussions will be designed to address key questions or
>issues nominated by the speakers.
