<div dir="ltr">Dear Colleagues,<div><br></div><div>Please find below the new CBI<i> Bits & Bytes</i>. In addition to write-ups of the October 2020 online symposium CBI's "Just Code: Power, Inequality, and the Global Political Economy of IT" (very special thanks from Con and I to our tremendous authors/presenters and to so many of you for attending), it contains news of a major new AI collection just acquired (and other CBI Archives news), a biography/remembrance of Gideon Gartner, and reminders of the Tomash Fellowship and Norberg Grants (for 2021 remote CBI archives use/scanning) competitions, both with deadlines in about three weeks (Jan. 15, 2021). Amanda and I also encourage submissions of short essays (2,000 to 3,500 words) on any topic/theme in computing and culture to the interdisciplinary journal <i>Interfaces: Essays and Reviews in Computing & Culture</i>. We have some terrific content in the works for <i>Interfaces </i>in early 2021! Wishing everyone a happy and healthy holiday season!</div><div><br></div><div>Best, Jeff<br><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><u></u>
