Researching Contemporary Culture summer workshops 2014 (London)
by Zara Dinnen 25 Feb '14

25 Feb '14

AOIR-ers, *with apologies for cross posting The following series of workshops may be of interest: Researching Contemporary Culture is a series of summer workshops for postgraduate and early career researchers. It takes place from the 14th to 16th July 2014 at the Institute of English Studies, Senate House London. Researching Contemporary Culture aims to help researchers in the field address an array of issues that currently define the study of contemporary culture by offering workshops and presentations on: developing the impact of research through exhibition, curation, and the championing of particular artists'/directors'/authors' work; producing research for open access publications; balancing public engagement and research needs; using online participatory culture as a research tool; conducting sustainable research with ephemeral data. The event will bring together specialist workshop leaders, speakers, and librarians to address these challenges through a research skills development programme of participatory workshops and advice and guidance. Researching Contemporary Culture has evolved out of the work of the Contemporary Fiction Seminar at the Institute of English Studies, and will offer a sustainable research skills enrichment programme appropriate for the study of contemporary culture in the arts and humanities disciplines of the twenty-first century. Speakers include: Caroline Bassett, Clare Birchall, Kieran Connell, Jeremy Gilbert, Gary Hall, Matt Hills, Roger Luckhurst, Holly Pester, Ernesto Priego, Agnes Woolley. The three workshop themes are: Public Practices, Archiving Now, and Interpretive Communities. Researching Contemporary Culture is supported by an AHRC Collaborative Skills Award; with additional support from the University of Birmingham, Birkbeck, University of London, and the Institute of English Studies, University of London; it is organised by Dr Zara Dinnen (University of Birmingham) and Dr Tony Venezia (Birkbeck, University of London), conveners of the Contemporary Fiction Seminar. Further information and details of how to apply are available at the website: researchingthecontemporary.net.

CFP: 2014 Digital Societies and Social Technologies (DSST) Summer Institute
by Ingrid Erickson 24 Feb '14

24 Feb '14

**Apologies for Duplication** Call for Participation: 2014 Digital Societies and Social Technologies (DSST) Summer Institute July 8 – July 10, 2014 (arrival July 7; departure July 11 for 3 full days) University of Missouri – Columbia, Columbia, MO http://www.sociotech.net/v2/dsst2014 MOOCs, Education and learning; personal health and well-being; open innovation, eScience, and citizen science; co-production, open source, and new forms of work; cultural heritage and information access; energy management and climate change; civic hacking, engagement and government; disaster response; cybersecurity and privacy – these are just a few problem domains where effective design and robust understanding of complex sociotechnical systems is critical. To meet these challenges a trans-disciplinary community of scholars has come together from fields as wide ranging as CSCW, HCI, social computing, organization studies, information visualization, social informatics, sociology, information systems, medical informatics, computer science, ICT for development, education, learning science, journalism, and political science. Through summer institutes (CSST), extended workshops (Social Webshop), preconference workshops at a wide variety of venues, and other activities (Digital Societies and Technology Research Coordination Network) this community of researchers from academia and industry has developed a strong focus on problems and opportunities arising from the interplay of social and technological systems which span individuals, groups, organizations, and societies. The 2014 Summer Institute builds on this tradition to strengthen and expand this diverse community by bringing together graduate students, post doctoral students, faculty, and other researchers in four groups at the University of Missouri – Columbia on July 8 – 10, 2014: Doctoral students, post doctoral students, pre-tenure faculty, and early career researchers – Through mentoring, peer networking, and skill-building tutorials, doctoral students, post doctoral students, pre-tenure faculty, and early career researchers will identify substantive ways that the theories, approaches, and tools within the larger community can advance their work with the design and study of sociotechnical systems. Established researchers – Prior summer institute/workshop participants and established researchers will network with other researchers (senior and junior), explore ideas and new directions, shape emerging research agendas, articulate critical challenges, and share knowledge about practices, tools, and approaches which have the potential to advance the design and study of sociotechnical systems. Emerging multi-disciplinary research teams – Nascent groups of researchers seeking to develop cross-disciplinary collaborations will work with peers and mentors to refine problem statements and research goals; connect with collaborators with complementary skills and interests; and create actionable research agendas and funding proposals. Preference will be given to groups interested in designing and studying sociotechnical systems that address societal grand challenges such as (but not limited to) healthcare; energy management and climate change; cybersecurity and privacy; education and learning; disaster response; technology development and innovation; economic development and work; and civic engagement and participation. Research infrastructure development teams – Groups of researchers interested in creating computational or analytic tools, data resources, training materials or other infrastructure to support the design and study of sociotechnical systems will work with one another, other Summer institute participants, and local developers. These infrastructure “hackathon” sessions will result in the creation of use cases, prototypes, draft materials, and when possible deployable systems and resources. Applying for DSST 2014 Applications are encouraged from all academic, industry, NGO, and public sector organizations worldwide. To apply for the 2013 Summer Institute, select the group that best fits your needs and situation and send the appropriate materials to the Summer Institute co-coordinator (Sean Goggins) at gogginss(a)missouri.edu by March 20, 2014: Doctoral students, post doctoral students, pre-tenure faculty, and early career researchers should send their CV and a short (~ 1 page) response to: “How does/will your work advance our ability to design and understand critical sociotechnical systems?” Several core references should be included to situate your work within the larger research community. Doctoral students should also provide a letter of recommendation from their advisor/department chair indicating their expected graduation date. Established researchers should send their CV and a short (~ 1 page) response to: “What are the most interesting challenges and opportunities related to the design and study of critical sociotechnical systems? What activity (30 minutes to 4 hours long) could you run that would help the Summer Institute participants better engage these challenges and opportunities?” Proposed activities can be for any (or all) Summer Institute participants and might include, but are not limited to: focused presentations; brainstorming sessions; in-depth problem descriptions; method, tool, or data tutorials; or research agenda setting exercises. Emerging multi-disciplinary research teams should apply as a group, sending their CVs and a short (~ 1 page) response to: “What is the research focus/problem domain? What types of activities/studies are needed to engage that domain? How will pursuing this agenda help advance our ability to design and understand critical sociotechnical systems?” References potential funding sources can be included, if known, to situate the proposal within the larger research community. Groups invited to the Summer Institute will have between 4-6 people. However, only 3 individuals need to be part of an application for it to be considered (assistance will be provided prior to the Summer Institute to help invited teams recruit additional participants as needed). Preference will be given to cross-institutional teams in which junior/mid-career researchers play significant leadership roles. Research infrastructure development teams should apply as a group, sending their CVs and a short (~ 1 page) response to: “What is the problem you are seeking to address? What will you do to address that problem? How will creating these technologies, tools, materials or infrastructure improve our ability to design and understand critical sociotechnical systems?” References to examples from other domains can be included to situate your proposal. Teams invited for the Summer Institute will have between 4-6 people from multiple disciplines and institutions. However, only 3 individuals need to be part of an application to be considered (assistance will be provided prior to the Summer Institute to help invited teams recruit additional participants as needed). Lodging, meals, and other onsite costs will be covered for all Summer Institute participants. Limited travel support is available, if needed, for participants from US and Canadian institutions (with preference given to doctoral and post-doctoral students). Travel support may also be available for other Summer Institute participants. To be considered for all available financial support you should provide the following information when you apply: What college or university do you attend? What is your primary department affiliation? If you are applying from a Canadian university, are you a member of the GRAND network? Materials should be sent to Summer Institute co-coordinator (Sean Goggins) at gogginss(a)missouri.edu by March 20th, 2014. Applications will be reviewed by the Summer Institute Advisory Group beginning March 30th, 2013 using the following criteria: -Clear articulation of the hoped-for contribution to the theory, practice, or design of sociotechnical systems -Likelihood of Summer Institute participation providing significant practical benefit for the individual/team -Contribution to a balanced and diverse group of participants The number of participants selected will depend on the available funding and the fit between applicants’ interests and goals. For more information about the Summer Institute, contact the Summer Institute co-coordinators, Sean Goggins (gogginss(a)missouri.edu) and Diane Bailey (debailey(a)ischool.utexas.edu) For information about the broader community of researchers interested in design and study of sociotechnical systems, see: CSST (www.sociotech.net) the “Researchers of the Socio-Technical” Facebook group, or the CSST listserv (csst(a)listserv.syr.edu) 2014 Mentors Mark Ackerman, University of Michigan Diane Bailey, University of Texas (Co-Director) Paul Dourish, University of California – Irvine Nicole Ellison, University of Michigan Sean Goggins, University of Missouri (Co-Director) Erik Johnston, Arizona State University Tony Salvador, Intel Jennifer Stromer-Galley, Syracuse Susan Stuckey, IBM Steve Sawyer, Syracuse (Digital Societies RCN) Wayne Lutters, UMBC (Digital Societies RCN) Brian Butler, Maryland (Digital Societies RCN) Andrea Hoplight-Tapia, The Pennsylvania State University (Digital Societies RCN)

CFP: PRECONFERENCE WORKSHOP ON INTERNET CATS!
by Andrew Herman 24 Feb '14

24 Feb '14

AOIR Internet Cat Proposal for IR 15 Preconference Proposal Hi All I would like to put together a preconference workshop on thesubject of Internet Cats: LOL Cats and Icanhazcheezbuger; Internet Cat Videos and International Internet Cat Video Festivals; Internet Cat Memes and Gatonovelas; Internet Cat Ur-Demigods such as Keyboard Cat and contemporary luminaries suchas Lil Bub, and documentaries about them, and so on. Clearly, the myth that the Internetis Made of Cats is widely held but nobody really knows why and, with theexception of Kate Miltners MA work at the LSE, there has been little sustainedanalytical consideration of Internet Cats. This is an aporia in Critical Internet Studies that must be addressed as soon as possible. If not now, when? The purpose of the workshop is to bring together scholarswho have interest in pursuing the theorization, conceptualization and empiricalanalysis one of Internet Cats the most important features of evolving Internetculture. Please let me know if you areinterested. All I need at this point is an expression of interest inparticipating, your institutional affiliation, and-if you have one- a title ofa brief presentation. PLEASE CONTACT ME BY FEBRuARY 28 at the latest. Andrew Herman Associate Professor Department of Communication Studies Wilfrid Laurier University Waterloo, ON N2L 3C5

Dear all, Two Post-Docs on ‘Ego-media: The impact of new media on forms and practices of self-presentation’, a European Research Council grant led by Professor Max Saunders here at King's College London that I'm also part of. Cheers Tim Dr Tim Jordan, Senior Lecturer Department of Digital Humanities and Department of Culture, Media and Creative Industries, Creative Arts Administrative Centre, Room 5D, D Floor, Chesham Building, King's College London, Strand, London WC2R 2LS, England Phone: +44 (0)20 78481100 King’s College London is advertising two postdoctoral positions (of 3 years and 5 years) to work on a new collaborative research project in Life Writing and digital media funded by the European Research Council. It is called ‘Ego-media: The impact of new media on forms and practices of self-presentation’, and is being led by Professor Max Saunders, the Director of the Arts and Humanities Research Institute. He will be joined by his Co-Director of the Centre for Life-Writing Research, Professor Clare Brant, and two other King’s academics: Alexandra Georgakopoulou, Professor of Discourse Analysis & Sociolinguistics om the Centre for Language, Discourse & Communication, and Professor Leone Ridsdale, from the Institute of Psychiatry. The project’s steering group also includes colleagues from Culture Media and Creative Industries, Digital Humanities, French, Medical Humanities, Medical Sociology, War Studies, and Education. It aims to study the impact of new media on autobiographical narratives: an impact increasing as habits and practices of self-presentation evolve rapidly in response to constantly fast-changing technology. It will consider the implications of these new forms and practices for such notions as autobiography, selfhood, subjectivity, individuality, self-intelligibility, agency, creativity, privacy, and sociability. The closing date for applications is the 11th March.
