Media-NÕs enticing fall edition took shape over a period of months in partnership with Hexagram, an international community of scholars centered around two major universities in Montreal: Concordia University and UniversitŽ du QuŽbec Ë MontrŽal. As a distinctive thematic publication, it prefaces RE-CREATE 2015 International Conference on the Histories of Media, Art, Science and Technology, a biennial conference hosted this year (2015) by Hexagram in Montreal. The issue represents a collaboration among four guest editors, UniversitŽ du QuŽbec Ë MontrŽal scholars Louis-Claude Paquin and Louise Poissant, and Concordia University scholars Owen Chapman and Kim Sawchuk. The editorial alliance between Media-N and Hexagram was facilitated by Ricardo Dal Farra, Concordia University scholar and Media-NÕs supporting Associate Editor for Research-Creation: Explorations. Pat Badani, Editor-in-Chief.
