Re: [Yasmin_discussions] McLUHAN EFFECTS

Dear Salvatore.
Thank you for your thoughts on McLuhan and for the information about
the presentation of the scientific research around The Electronic Man
in Portugal at the CCB. I will gladly try to take my students there,
but are the dates announced right? 30/11 – 2/12? Just 3 days in the
middle of a working week? as in:
http://www.artisopensource.net/2011/08/31/the-electronic-man-at-the-planetary-collegium-cr12-in-portugal/
Best wishes.
Vítor Reia
