Funny, I got rejected for an AOIR conference because this topic was "over" and "nobody was talking about it anymore." And that was several years ago! Oops. Anyway, Andrea, I talked about the real/virtual divide and the continuum extensively in my dissertation. You can find it via Google on OhioLink but I have cleaned up the grammar from the initial draft and posted the PDF on my website: http://www.dlfilms.com/professional/dissertation.html

query
by Jonathan Marshall 13 Feb '13

13 Feb '13

Please excuse this query, but i'm looking for work on the sociology of computer modelling. i can find masses of stuff on doing sociology with computers, but almost nothing on the social dynamics of the modeeling process. Given that modelling depends on negotiated guesses, simplifications, broad summaries and so on, it is clearly a social process, and i would have thought there must be masses of stuff. i have only found Paul Edwards 'A Vast Machine' and i'm not quite sure it is what i want.... If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I would greatly appreciate them. jon UTS CRICOS Provider Code: 00099F DISCLAIMER: This email message and any accompanying attachments may contain confidential information.

I am working on my dissertation on “the uses and gratifications of social media among South Asian (Bangladesh, India and Pakistan) diaspora in the U.S”. I am planning to conduct an online survey but I wonder whether I would get a listserv to invite people to participate in the survey. I would really appreciate recommendations. -- ......................................................................................................................

REMINDER: Abstracts due Feb. 22 for Theory of Broadband Experts' Workshop at CITI
by Richard Taylor 12 Feb '13

12 Feb '13

Colleagues, Just to remind to those who are interested that the deadline for submissions of Abstracts for the Workshop below is coming up. Call for Paper Proposals "Theory of Broadband: Regulation, Networks and Applications" A by-invitation Experts' Workshop to be held at The Columbia Institute for Tele-Information, Columbia University New York, NY, May 30-June 1, 2013 As broadband becomes the dominant technology over which all media and telecommunications services are delivered, the traditional differences between content and conduit, mass media and interpersonal communications, and mobile and fixed uses made of technology are blurred. This has been observed and discussed for a while but theoretical dimensions on how technology changes regulatory, societal and economic structures have lagged. As we are moving to an entirely new generation of media, new academic approaches are needed to guide networks, users, content providers, and policy makers, This calls for analysis and new conceptual and methodological models. The Institute for Information Policy at Penn State University (IIP), and the Columbia Institute for Tele-Information (CITI) are pleased to announce this call for paper proposals in which "Theory of Broadband: Regulation, Networks and Applications" serves as the main theme. Authors of selected papers will be invited to present them during a two day by-invitation workshop designed to bring together up to a dozen experts and to be held at Columbia University in New York, NY. This Workshop is one of a series of events on "Making Policy Research Accessible," organized by the IIP, with the support of the Ford Foundation and the Media Democracy Fund. Presenters at the workshop will be invited to submit their completed papers for review by the Journal of Information Policy ( <http://www.jip-online.org/> www.jip-online.org) We seek papers that focus on the next generation of issues. All disciplines are welcome. Invited topics include, but are not limited to: . Theories of broadband networking and/or regulation and regulatory principles . Models of transition to the new broadband marketplace . The role of the FCC and other regulatory agencies in consumer protection, competition policy and merger oversight in the broadband economy . Valuation and regulation of spectrum in the broadband environment . Impacts of technological trends on the fundamental economics of information . Investor approaches and risk in the broadband environment . Access as a social and economic goal in a converged technological environment . Concepts of privacies in the broadband environment . Comparisons of alternative national models of broadband regulatory oversight and their track records . Next generation media and next generation content genres . Understanding audiences in the broadband environment Abstracts of up to 500 words and a short bio of the author(s) should be submitted to <mailto:pennstateiip@psu.edu> pennstateiip(a)psu.edu by February 22, 2013. Please write IIPCITITOB: YOUR NAME in the subject line. Accepted presenters will be notified by March 17, 2013.

Help with sources

A long-time lurker to this point and, as a law prof, feeling like a bit of an outsider, so I'm sorry if this is a bit misplaced ... Background: I am writing an article arguing that images posted to SMS sites should, in some cases, be protected from copyright claims via fair use. In essence, I am arguing that such use is "transformative" (and thus protected by fair use) because it serves a purpose distinct from the original; i.e., originally news, aesthetic, etc., now as markers in offloaded and/or transactive memory. Issue I'm having: I am familiar with the extensive writing about issues attendant to the sharing function of these websites (and I address this to an extent by linking memory to identity), but I can't find much of anything in the legal literature on the archiving or repository function (except re: issues of privacy, post-death protection, evidence, etc., which aren't really on point for my focus on the social and psychological aspects). Request: Can anyone steer me towards literature that I might find helpful? Thanks in advance, and my apologies if this is off track for the list. Brian H. Brian Holland Professor of Law Texas Wesleyan School of Law

The conference explores academically the emerging and frontier-breaking applications of new media in everyday contexts of leisure, business and organizational life. October 2nd is the main Academic MindTrek day with other sessions on the preceding and following days. Due to increasing popularity of the conference, we are extending the scope of Academic MindTrek 2013! The academic conference features six major themes: * Social Media * Ambient & Ubiquitous Media * Business & Media * Human-Computer Interaction (new track!) * Open Source * Digital Games Why participating? -------------------------------------------------------------- The MindTrek Association hosts MindTrek as a yearly conference, where the Academic MindTrek conference has been a part of this unique set of events comprising competitions, world famous keynote speakers, plenary sessions, media festivals, and workshops since 1997. It is a meeting place where researchers, experts and thinkers present results from their latest work regarding the development of Internet, interactive media, and the information society: * Real chance for media enthusiasts to think outside the box * Brings together researchers and practitioners from diverse disciplines that are involved in the development of media in various fields, ranging from sociology and the economy to technology * The highest ranked papers will be published in academic journals (e.g. in 2012 we published a selected set of articles in ACM Computers in Entertainment, Electronic Markets - The International Journal on Networked Business, and the International Journal of Ambient Computing and Intelligence. * Provides a chance to learn from the vast media genre at large * Allows participants to exchange views with cross-disciplinary experts * Aims to provide insights about the convergence of the various media and the future of media * High-level keynote speakers. A few examples from previous years: Keith Partridge, Tomi T.

Also this year we are preparing a wide set of invited speakers & keynotes. Social Media -------------------------------------------------------------- "Get social!" Social media and Web 2.0 technologies are applied in ever diverse practices both in private and public communities. Totally new business models are emerging, traditional communication and expression modalities are challenged, and new practices are constructed in the collaborative, interactive media space. Ambient and Ubiquitous Media -------------------------------------------------------------- "The medium is the message!? - This conference track focuses on the definition of ambient and ubiquitous media with a cross-disciplinary viewpoint: ambient media between technology, art, and content. The focus of this track is on applications, location based services, ubiquitous computation, augmented reality, theory, art-works, mixed reality concepts, the Web 3.0, and user experiences that make ubiquitous and ambient media tick. Media Business, Media Production and Media Management -------------------------------------------------------------- Media business and media management face the challenges of the emergence of new forms of digital media and focuses on leadership practices, business models and value chains. It discusses competition, patterns of media usage, advertising models, and how traditional media can cope with the challenges coming from digital media focusing on media business and media management issues. Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) -------------------------------------------------------------- The wide field of HCI is to discuss issues around human computer interaction modalities, consumer experience, design of computer systems, human aspects, universal media access, ergonomics, communication, novel interaction modalities, privacy, trusted systems, interaction theories, and sociological and psychological factors. This theme of devotes to several of these aspects, and is targeted to the scientific community dealing with several applied and theoretical aspects of HCI and user experience. Open Source -------------------------------------------------------------- The last decade has seen a significant increase in open source initiatives such as open source software, open standards, open content, open media, or even open source hardware. On the one hand, the open movement has created new kinds of opportunities such as new business models and development approaches. On the other hand, it has introduced new kinds of technical and non-technical challenges. Digital Games -------------------------------------------------------------- The culture and business of digital games is becoming increasingly varied. The current trends range from novel interface innovations and digital distribution channels to social game dynamics and player-generated content. The games track is open for theoretical works, empirical case studies and constructive projects. Demonstrations -------------------------------------------------------------- The aim is to gather demonstrations from researchers and professionals from the communities related to the topics of MindTrek. The objective for the demonstrations is to provide a forum for exchanging experiences, practical projects, or media demonstrators. The target audience includes members of the academic community, industry, or laboratories who can demonstrate the results of their research projects with a practical implementation. Special academic sessions (e.g. tutorials, demonstrations, workshops, and multidisciplinary sessions) will be held parallel to the MindTrek business conference. Academic speakers and authors are warmly welcome to register for the business conference tracks as part of the academic conference with our special registration rate. The Academic MindTrek registration includes full service such as coffees, lunches, and social gatherings. The organizing committee invites you to submit original high quality full papers, long or short, addressing the special theme and the topics, for presentation at the conference and inclusion in the proceedings.
