The ways in which writers represent emotional response and immediacy is central to understanding the Gothic as a force that transcends and transmutes culturally enforced structures of (self-) control and the fashioning of gender roles and stereotypes. From extensive phantasmagoric descriptions of imagined encounters with the fear-inspiring "other" to the actual (infectious) touch and the consequent sensations experienced through this Gothic encounter\, the human subject becomes a resonance body as well as a container of emotion the latter of which through fear and the uncanny overflows spontaneously and cathartically releases emotional response. This international conference on "Gothic Sensations - Sensational Gothic" aims to explore the complex fields of emotion in Gothic and sensation fiction from 1765 to 1900. The organizer invites proposals (max. 300 words) for 20-minute papers on any aspect of the conference theme. It is planned to publish revised and expanded versions of selected papers. DEADLINE: 1 June 2009.

You are encouraged to voice your opinion and discuss and debate. Aloha on Rails is read/write. Network\, network\, network! A major advantage of any conference is meeting your peers\, talking story\, and making contacts in your industry.

You’ll make friends and contacts with fellow developers and designers that will last well after the conference is over. Presentations Are a Starting Point No doubt the presentations will be engaging\, informative and extremely relevant to any web developer. However\, we consider the presentations to be more than that: they are gateways to debate and discourse! Our speakers will expose you to new ways of thinking about a problem or a new toolkit that will help you do things easier. They will challenge your assumptions and you will even disagree with some of them. Our presentations are designed to start a discussion that lasts well after the presentation has ended. Many people have said that the power of conferences are the hallway conversations after the presentation. We couldn’t agree more. Rails Training - Learn Rails and Deploy an Application Aloha on Rails embodies the aloha spirit of peace and compassion\, and we welcome everyone from all the web development communities. When we heard that Rails Bridge has formed\, with a mission to create an inclusive and friendly Ruby on Rails community\, we knew we found an organization that help us spread the Aloha of Rails. We are excited to partner with Rails Bridge to bring you Rails Training in Paradise. Sarah Mei will lead you in writing\, testing\, and deploying your own Rails web application! This training is offered as part of your Aloha on Rails registration\, and is designed to “boot strap” you into Rails so that you will be prepared for the conference. If you are new to Rails\, or web development\, this is your chance to experience the productivity and enjoyment of Rails. After your training is done\, you’ll slide right into the conference and you’ll know what all the fuss is about. Family Events We know that many attendees will be bringing their families with them. I’m sure your spouse and/or children wouldn’t let you go to Hawaii by yourself. Aloha on Rails will run family events to the Honolulu Zoo and Honolulu Aquarium during the conference. Both activities are next door to the conference venue\, easy to get to\, and will provide a fun activity for the keiki (kids). Waikiki\, Hawaii OK\, I’ll play the “Hawaii Card.” Yes\, the conference is in Waikiki\, one of the world’s most famous beaches.

Analyzing usability in context is important for connecting empirical work analysis and interaction design. In industry\, a wealth of usability evaluation methods is used to evaluate computer software user interfaces and other interactive products: Inspection methods\, Workplace observation\, Think-Aloud Usability Test\, etc. These techniques often give - seemingly - similar results when applied in diverse social\, cultural and organizational settings\, but experience shows that we need a deep understanding of the cultural\, social and organizational context to interpret the results\, and to transform it into interaction design. The working conference will present current research into and industrial experiences with usability as a way of connecting empirical work analysis and interaction design\, with a special focus on contexts in India. Cultural usability is a comprehensive concept which adheres to all kinds of contexts in which humans are involved (private family\, work\, public and private organizations\, nature and climate\, technological\, etc.). The purpose of the working conference is to enable practitioners and researchers to analyze the concept of usability and how it can be used to connect empirical work analyses and interaction designs in different contexts. The working conference presentations and discussions will be published in a book in the Springer IFIP series.

Mediating Jazz is a two-day multi-disciplinary conference that brings together the leading researchers in the field of new jazz studies. The conference itself will comprise of four key strands\, each of which addresses the overarching themes of mediation in jazz: 1. Jazz and the media We wish to explore the way in which media representation impacts on jazz discourse. The review panel will welcome papers that examine the way in which jazz is represented through various media from Hollywood film to television documentary\, sleeve notes to journalism. 2. Performance and the body Musicians often promote the performance of jazz as an unmediated experience. We invite papers that interrogate this assumption\, exploring the relationship between performance and different types of mediation. This could include discussions of jazz as a transcendent art or a gendered construct\, as well as examining the mythologies of improvisation\, musicianship and the 'jazz life'\, and the codification of performance practice. 3. Politics and identity Within the jazz mainstream\, the radical politics of the 1960s has arguably been replaced with a sense of homogenised culture\, devoid of explicit race and class issues. This strand explores the role mediation plays in the growth and development of identities alongside the promotion/subversion of political messages. 4. Jazz cultures and narratives This strand explores jazz as both narrative trope and changing cultural signifier. We welcome papers that explore the concept of jazz from a range of disciplinary perspectives\, encouraging a discursive approach to the cultural study of jazz. Abstracts of no more than 300 words should be submitted to Dr Tony Whyton (t.whyton@salford.ac.uk) by Wednesday 27 May 2009.
