Journals
Sally to Me:
Hi I'm collaborating with a friend on a paper. We're thinking there might be a cyborg angle to our content. We'd like to check out the journals to see if any would be relevant.
Are there any Cyborg academic journals? Do you have an advised opinion on them?
I'd like to come to Cyborg Camp. What's its duration?
Thanks!

These publications deal with cyberspace and cyborgs, but are not actually called Cyborg.

FibreCulture
Internet theory + criticism + research (I like this one a lot). http://journal.fibreculture.org/
Fibreculture Journal is a peer reviewed international journal that explores the issues and ideas of concern and interest to both the Fibreculture network and wider social formations. The journal encourages critical and speculative interventions in the debate and discussions concerning information and communication technologies and their policy frameworks, network cultures and their informational logic, new media forms and their deployment, and the possibilities of socio-technical invention and sustainability. Other broad topics of interest include the cultural contexts, philosophy and politics of:
- information and creative industries
- national and international strategies for innovation, research and development
- education
- media and culture, and
- new media arts
Fibreculture Journal encourages submissions that extend research into critical and investigative networked theories, knowledges and practices.
Fibreculture Journal values academic scholarship in the field, and demonstrates this through the publication of refereed articles. However, the journal also wishes to expand notions of scholarship to include artistic interventions in the field by featuring collaborative hypertexts, database compositions, and low-band electronic installations that experiment with the philosophy, politics and culture of information and communication technolgies.
ISSN: 1449 - 1443 Published in Australia Publisher: Fibreculture Publications/Open Humanities Press The journal is peer reviewed as per section 4.3.4 of the HERDC Specifications.
