15 May '14

Apologies if this appears twice. I tried to post it yesterday but did not see it show up. MB *CFP: Commemoration of the 60th Anniversary of Lord of the Rings (The Mithril Turtle)* 2014 is the sixtieth anniversary of *Lord of the Rings*. The Mithril Turtle is the University of Maryland College Park’s commemoration of this important literary and cultural milestone. A variety of events are planned for September 1 – October 17, 2014. Among these is an interdisciplinary discussion series. Tolkien's created world is realistically and compellingly realized, making it ideal for creative exploration of a wide range of disciplines. We invite proposals that use the lens of *Lord of the Rings* and Middle-earth to focus attention upon cutting edge research and scholarship. Topics might include (but are not limited to): · Mithril and Materials Science: How close are we? [Materials Science] · Does formal education exist in Middle-earth? [Higher Education] · Tolkien as poet [Literature] · Jackson’s films or other adaptations [Film Studies] · Middle-earth, Tolkien, and the internet [Media and Pop Culture Studies] · Tolkien’s contemporary art world and its influence on his art [Art] · Tolkien-inspired artists and artwork [Contemporary Art] · Tolkien’s cartography and medieval maps [Geography] · Would Aragorn need an EPA? Land use in Middle-earth [Ecology, Public Policy] · The economy of Middle-earth [Business and Economics] · Tolkien’s medieval sources [History] · Tolkien’s invented languages [Linguistics] · Hobbit holes and earth homes: energy efficiency in Middle-earth [Architecture] · Shelob, balrogs, and giant eagles: physiology in Middle-earth [Biology] Short proposals (~one page) are welcome. For best consideration, send materials to Michelle Markey Butler (mbutler5(a)umd.edu) by July 20, 2014. For more information about the LOTR Research Discussion Series, possible topics, or the Mithril Turtle event schedule, see mithrilturtle.umd.edu.

Two opportunities for HICSS -- please join us -- pper deadline June 15, 2014. /Caroline Haythornthwaite ================================================================================================= CFP: HICSS Social Networking and Communities Chairs: Anatoliy Gruzd, Caroline Haythornthwaite, Karine Nahon Track: Digital and Social Media Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS) 48, January 5-8, 2015, Kauai, HI http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu/ FULL PAPERS DUE: June 15, 2014 via the HICSS conference system http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu/hicss_48/48CFP-final.pdf http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu/HICSS_48/Tracks/DSM/DSMCommunities.pdf This minitrack calls for papers that address social networks and communities supported and/or complemented by social media for work, learning, socializing, economic and/or political processes, and/or that address design, practices, use or evaluation of such social media use. Papers are encouraged that address communities in a broad sense of its use, including communities of practice, epistemic communities, or communities of inquiry; as well as fully virtual communities, and social media use that supports or complements geographically based community. We particularly encourage papers that: advance our understanding of social network growth, formation, structure and outcomes through social media; advance out understanding of the design of social media technologies and practices for effective community development and maintenance; studies of socio-technical aspects of social media use that explore how the technology relates to social outcomes; theoretical studies that explore models and principles of social media design, use and outcomes. ================================================================================================= CFP: HICSS Social Media & Learning Minitrack Chairs: Maarten de Laat, Caroline Haythornthwaite, Shane Dawson & Dan Suthers Track: Digital and Social Media Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS) 48, January 5-8, 2015, Kauai, HI http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu/ FULL PAPERS DUE: June 15, 2014 via the HICSS conference system http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu/hicss_48/48CFP-final.pdf http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu/HICSS_48/Tracks/DSM/DSMLearning.pdf This minitrack calls for papers that address leading edge innovation, research methods and design to analyze and support learning through digital and social media. The ability to generate and maintain rich networked connections through social media, social networking, crowdsourcing, cloud technology, and social computing has a profound impact on the way we solve problems, learn, innovate and develop our identities, and the value this creates for individuals and groups. This minitrack will bring together state of the art research that furthers social theories of learning (such as networked learning, learning analytics, collaborative learning, viral learning, and social capital) situated in formal, non-formal and informal learning settings such as schools, higher education, organizations, workplace, leisure, communities and crowds. We call for papers that use, analyze and/or develop technologies, practices, and policies that examine social media and learning. We use the term 'social media' broadly to include many ways of interacting online and many forms of organizing online. We also use the term to include use of multiple media and welcome studies that address use across multiple platforms. We specifically welcome papers that address new and exciting areas of research in the potential of social media for new forms of learning, and the potential value social media creates for connectivity, development, and knowledge growth.

Reminder: Concepts and Methods Workshop, UC, 27 August
by Mathieu.O'neil 15 May '14

15 May '14

Reminder - two weeks to deadline! Concepts and Methods Workshop: Structural Approaches to Online Communities and Networks News & Media Research Centre, University of Canberra Wednesday 27 August 2014 In this workshop graduate students and early-career researchers will have the opportunity to present their work (including work-in-progress) and obtain feedback from a panel of specialists. The workshop will be open to the public. The workshop has two main objectives. First, we wish to assess to what extent the methodological and conceptual tools used to analyse online communities can be applied to the personal networking behaviour of social media users. Second, we are interested in fostering a dialogue between, broadly speaking, ethnographic ("qualitative") and structural ("quantitative") researchers. Specialist panel: Professor Caroline Haythornthwaite, School of Library, Archival and Information Studies, The iSchool at The University of British Columbia Associate Professor Robert Ackland, Research School of Social Sciences, Australian National University Associate Professor Mathieu O'Neil, Faculty of Arts and Design, University of Canberra Panel members will discuss some of the latest conceptual and methodological developments in web social science, social network analysis, and online field theory. In addition, the workshop will represent an opportunity to explore connections and confrontations with: -content analysis -critical and feminist approaches -diffusion and information cascades -frame analysis -issue ballistics -mixed methods -organizational behaviour -sentiment analysis -social influence Applicants are encouraged to focus on key characteristics of online communities and networks, including but not limited to: -activist, diasporic and health communities -codes of conduct, rules and norms -emergence and disappearance -influentials and followers -mobilization and engagement -participant capabilities and skills -personal and collective identity -topologies of online communities Submission process: Proposals should be emailed to Mathieu O'Neil <mathieu[dot]oneil[at]canberra[dot]edu[dot]au> by 31 May 2014. As the research may not be complete, we do not expect abstracts to include all findings and conclusions. However abstracts should outline what kind of findings and conclusions the authors expect to present. Specifically the abstract should include: -the name, institutional affiliation, email address and contact telephone number of the presenter(s) -a title -a description of the paper's core topic, case, and/or argument -the methodological approach and theoretical background -the paper's relevance to related academic literature -expected findings or conclusions Proposal length should not exceed 400 words. More information can be found at the Workshop webpage: http://www.canberra.edu.au/faculties/arts-design/research/research-centres/…

The research context involves the aesthetic function arranged in school work digital home videos published on the internet, especially on YouTube digital sharing interface.This interface where the publications of the videos that are presented in a trial time of technological, market, cultural and social convergence are localizated, in particular has a speaker - in this case the young’s - as its main “spect-author” who lives and moves between this school and Digital Culture.The analytical theoretical line research in this composition is built on the concepts of Aesthetics and Attractor in dialogue with Bakhtin and Canevacci.On the threshold of this communication support, Massimo Canevacci discusses the concept of visual attractor while the high value fetish code that, coupled with good contemporary communication, seduces espetc-actors and performs silenced puzzles.From the philosophical inquiry and under his guidance, was used as a methodological tool for assessing the notion of aesthetic from the ethical-aesthetic principle that understands the Bakhtinian theoretical thinking articulated to life, focused on the socio-historical perspective same as the creation and the expression. The relevance of this process emerges from the single young enunciative chronotope that is manifested in the form of home made videos with a typical stylistic trait and systematically establishing “itself” in their incompleteness and digital dialogicity.An experience not only nurtured by intertextuality already offered by social digital networks, but also by the aesthetic activity around school spaces which this young people are now immersed. 2014-05-14 19:00 GMT-03:00 <air-l-request(a)listserv.aoir.org>: > Send Air-L mailing list submissions to > air-l(a)listserv.aoir.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://listserv.aoir.org/listinfo.cgi/air-l-aoir.org > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > air-l-request(a)listserv.aoir.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > air-l-owner(a)listserv.aoir.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Air-L digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
