Here is a list of your seminar topics. Let me know if you want to make any changes or form groups. I will schedule the remaining seminars starting week 7 (the week following Reading Week) and they'll continue through week 12 (about 2 or 3 seminars per class). Your seminar presentations should last about 10 - 15 minutes with 5 minutes for discussion. Please, upload your notes and links to the blog, or post them on another site and provide a link to it on the blog.
I've pasted an in-depth project description of the Seminar Assignment below. I've also e-mailed it to you and posted it on My Courses.

SEMINAR ASSIGNMENT
Individually or in small groups, students will research and prepare for the seminar presentations. Each will take 10 – 15 minutes of class time. Groups may present their seminars using Powerpoint, in digital or web-based form, or using online publication examples. The seminars will introduce topics in digital publication, including net art and issues for new media artists, and new media technologies and aesthetics. Each seminar will be set in a social and historical context. You will submit a 500-word or so post to the blog including an overview of the content, and a bibliography of online resources. Evaluation of Student Seminars will be based on the following criteria:
• research will show depth and originality (not a rehash of one or two online sources)
• ability to give an overview of the topic, and to summarize ideas (synthesis of lots of source material)
• attention to both spoken and visual dimensions of the presentation (well organized and illustrated)
• good research, well documented in a supporting online bibliography and overview
