The 2012 conference themes (but not limited to) are creation, innovation, and reinvention. Nations, communities, groups and individuals have dynamically participated in the process of artistic, cultural, digital, historical, literary, scientific, and technological (re)invention, and they are increasingly conscious of their ability to (re)invent or (re)shape art, history, literature, science, society and technology. The goal of these themes is to analyze, using interdisciplinary approaches, the course of action that individuals and communities develop for their creation, innovation and reinvention. We invite panels and individual papers on these or related topics, but will give full consideration to any proposal within AHLiST’s scope.
