It appears that we're having some trouble with the list -- some people seem to have seen my post, others not. So here it is again, with apologies to those who did see it the first time.

Thanks for launching us, Keith!
I am most centrally interested in the following themes:
• Cultural studies of science and technology in Africa (which of course also include cultural politics of sci & tech)
• Public spaces, informality and infrastructures in the desegregating city
• The politics of literacy, legibility and expert knowledges in Africa
But would also be intrigued by workshops addressing the following:
• Interrogating Neoliberalism as idea and explanation
• The Global South as an idea and a source of theory
• The perils and possibilities of the digital humanities in Africa
• Narrative, visual forms and biopolitics in the medical humanities
Best
Gabrielle
