On behalf of Zachary McDowell, Briankle Chang, and myself, I am pleased
to announce the publication of Issue 2 of communication +1's 10th
Anniversary.

We thank the authors for their excellent contributions to the two issues
in this volume, which marks a decade of communication +1, and we are
excited to share these pieces. Please find below a description of the
new issue (as well as the previous issue companion).

communication +1's 10-year anniversary: A Decade of Futures (of
Communication)
Edited by Zachary McDowell and Peter Royal

What we proposed for this collection was to return again to explore the
boundaries and the future of communication as an area of study and as an
interdisciplinary and intersectional space of inquiry. communication
+1's first issue, Futures of Communication
<https://scholarworks.umass.edu/cpo/vol1/iss1/> (2012), did just that by
addressing a wide variety of topics. The objective to address the
"futures" of communication as a field of inquiry was and is not to
identify research topics that may be popular or fashionable; rather, it
is in the (re)establishment of "communication" as an enduring
theoretical concept that cuts across the humanities and social sciences.
The future of "communication" therefore designates its significance
guaranteed by its interdisciplinary promise (but also arrives with its
own concerns). What we offer here is a continuation of the belief that
the question of “futures” is not a one-time endeavor, but instead a
question that needs to be returned to time and time again, particularly
in this age of changing media landscapes and new interdisciplinary
discourse.

About the Journal

The aim of communication +1 is to promote new approaches to and open new
horizons in the study of communication from an interdisciplinary
perspective. We are particularly committed to promoting research that
seeks to constitute new areas of inquiry and to explore new frontiers of
theoretical activities linking the study of communication to both
established and emerging research programs in the humanities, social
sciences, and arts. Other than the commitment to rigorous scholarship,
communication +1 sets no specific agenda. Its primary objective is to
create a space for thoughtful experiments and for communicating these
experiments.

communication +1 is an open access journal supported by University of
Massachusetts Amherst Libraries and the Department of Communication

        Subject: The Bloomsbury Handbook to the Digital Humanities

Dear colleagues,

This is a quick note to highlight that The Bloomsbury Handbook to the Digital
Humanities has just been published. About 250,000 words in length, the book's 43
essays are intended to offer a re-interrogation of the present & future digital
humanities.

More as follows:
https://bloomsbury.com/us/bloomsbury-handbook-to-the-digital-
humanities-9781350232129/

Bloomsbury's Green OA policy allows chapters to be made public after a 6-month
embargo, so contributions will be openly available in May.

You can keep an eye on the collection's Zotero library to locate deposits as
they become available:

Best wishes,
James
