Rice University, Humanities Research Center
Visiting Faculty Scholars and Postdoctoral Fellowships
Institution Type: | College / University |
Location: | Texas, United States |
Position: | Post-Doctoral Fellow, Visiting Professor |
Rice University’s Humanities Research Center seeks visiting faculty scholars and postdoctoral fellows for the 2016-17 Rice Seminar, “Chronotopic Imaginaries: The City in Signs, Signals, and Scripts.” The multi-disciplinary cohort of fellows will examine how the ongoing production, collection, and curation of unimaginable amounts of chronotopically located data constitute a treasure trove for scholarship to be undertaken at a never before seen scale. The implied ‘connectedness’ of how we live together depends, however, on distributed networks, rules, codes, protocols, and infrastructures, all bound by a paradoxical, if not panopticistic, social contract now located in Cyberia. Deadline for both positions: December 4, 2015. Details: hrc.rice.edu/call_mellonpostdocs , hrc.rice.edu/call_autreyfellows.
