Virtually in Vancouver

I'm thinking about you all as I attend the American Comparative Literature Association conference in Vancouver this weekend...I wish you could hear how relevant our class is to current studies!

On my panel alone, which is entitled "Defining the Postcontemporary," people brought up such topics as:

"Gatekeepers"

New media memes like the "doubles guy"

Does e-reading changes the production of literature?

How is the internet an 'institution'?

I'll post again after my panel reconvenes today, as I'm sure more themes that resonate with our class are bound to come up...
