PrObs Private Ordering Perspectives Series at HBI (June, July, September)
by David Morar 08 Jun '21

08 Jun '21

Hello all, Apologies for crossposting. This week marks the first of a summer-long series of webinars hosted by the Private Ordering Observatory (PrObs <http://probs.org/>) at the Leibniz Institute for Media Research │ Hans-Bredow-Institut (HBI) entitled *Private Ordering Perspectives: Who Gets to Say Who Gets to Speak <https://www.hans-bredow-institut.de/en/projects/private-ordering-observatory>*. Click here <http://bit.ly/HBI-POP> to register. Further information below. Private Ordering Perspectives is a series of online talks spread out across the months of June, July and September 2021, each month with its own perspective. The three questions that the series is built on each tackle a general framework of private ordering, while simultaneously highlighting a particular case. *Query I*: Who gets to speak? What deplatforming can teach us - *June* *Query II*: What can we speak? The dealing with disinformation tells us - *July* *Query III*: Who makes the rules? Designing for better speech governance - * September* The first question in June is a fundamental one, “Who gets to speak?” *On June 10th, 1–2 CEST, Prof. Maura Conway <https://www.dcu.ie/lawandgovernment/people/maura-conway> of Dublin City University will talk to us about deplatforming and why one size does not fit all.Paper: Maura Conway (2020) Routing the Extreme Right <https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/03071847.2020.1727157>, The RUSI Journal, 165:1, 108-113On June 17th, 12–1 CEST, Prof. Richard Rogers <https://www.uva.nl/en/profile/r/o/r.a.rogers/r.a.rogers.html> of the University of Amsterdam will talk to us about what happens after deplatforming.Paper: Richard Rogers (2020) Deplatforming: Following extreme Internet celebrities to Telegram and alternative social media <https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0267323120922066>, European Journal of Communication, 35:3, 213–229.On June 24th, 1–2 CEST, Prof. Elizabeth Pearson <https://pure.royalholloway.ac.uk/portal/en/persons/elizabeth-pearson(dd2e73…> of Royal Holloway University will talk about how deplatforming can be seen as a positive by those deplatformed.Paper: Elizabeth Pearson (2018) Online as the New Frontline: Affect, Gender, and ISIS-Take-Down on Social Media <https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/1057610X.2017.1352280>, Studies in Conflict & Terrorism, 41:11, 850-874* In July, the Private Ordering Perspectives series will feature the second fundamental question, “What can we speak?” and will focus primarily on the case of disinformation with three experts providing thought-provoking lectures on specific actions, interventions and regulatory responses surrounding misinformation online. The calendar for the July series will be released shortly, but we are able to confirm that Stephan Lewandowsky (University of Bristol), Farnaz Jahanbakhsh (MIT) and Owen Bennet (Mozilla) will be our speakers, discussing their recent works. In September, the Private Ordering Perspectives series will tackle the final of three questions, “Who makes the rules?”. More specifically, the final of the three parts of the series will look at who, how and why designs rules related to online speech. Registration for the series is here <http://bit.ly/HBI-POP>. Webinar information will be sent shortly before the events. Questions about the event? Please contact the organizers, Matthias C. Kettemann <m.kettemann(a)leibniz-hbi.de> or David Morar <morar(a)nyu.edu>.

Seeking Co-Editor for "International Handbook of Online Deviance"
by Rod Graham 08 Jun '21

08 Jun '21

To AOIR Community - I am developing a book proposal for Routledge to edit a volume on online deviance tentatively entitled "International Handbook of Online Deviance." I have been asked to undertake this project by a commissioning editor at Routledge. I believe that having a co-editor on this project would be beneficial - preferably someone with a more critical theoretical orientation to crime and deviance online, or someone whose methodological expertise is in qualitative methods. If you are interested in co-editing this volume, please contact me at rgraham(a)odu.edu.

Research larp about machine vision - Scandinavian language required
by Jill Walker Rettberg 08 Jun '21

08 Jun '21

Dear AoIR researchers, We are organising a research larp (larp=live action roleplaying game) about machine vision in Bergen, Norway 21-23 Nov 2021, and are looking for researchers who can communicate in a Scandinavian language (Norwegian, Swedish or Danish) to participate. Sorry about the language requirement – but I know there are many Scandinavian-speaking scholars on this mailing list who may be interested, and if it’s a success, maybe we’ll do an international version later. The goal is to allow participants to experience ethical dilemmas relating to new technologies, and for them to make ethical choices that have (simulated) consequences – the idea is that technology has developed so fast that our societies haven’t fully developed practical ethical frameworks for it yet, and that larping could be a way to develop such ethics. If you’re interested, please sign up at http://sivilisasjonensventerom.no before 16 June, and also send me an email explaining why you’d like to participate – we have funding to cover travel expenses from the Nordic region for at least some scholars, so may be able to cover your costs. The larp – a live action role playing game - is called Sivilisasjonens Venterom (Civilization’s Waiting Room) and is funded by the Norwegian Research Council as an experiment in research dissemination, and it’s also connected to the ERC project Machine Vision in Everyday Life: Playful Interactions with Visual Technologies in Digital Art, Games, Narratives and Social Media. The actual larp takes place on Monday 22 Nov from morning until evening. The day before we’ll be workshopping and preparing for the larp, and the day after we’ll have a debriefing, and for the researchers, also a discussion to see what we thought of the larp as a research tool. Could we develop this into a teaching tool? Perhaps simulating worlds or societies that are NOT like our own could be used as a more deliberate research method? Sivilisasjonens venterom is set in a post-apocalyptic future where most of the world is a barren wasteland, but refugees clamour to enter Civilization, a town run by a benevolent AI system that offers the ultimate democracy: it makes decisions for society based on all of our data. We are also developing other larps in the same world – a children’s larp where 10-14 year olds are brought up by robots who tell the kids there are no other humans in the world (the kids may outwit the rather simple machine learning algorithms used by the robots, or perhaps they’ll just accept the robot leaders) and a short larp designed for conferences. The larp is developed by experience Nordic larp developers, and we’re hoping to recruit about 20 researchers working on AI, machine vision and related areas, and 20 experienced larpers. If you’re both, and can speak a Scandinavian language, you are basically our dream participant, but we do want to include researchers who are new to larping as well. (To be honest I’ve not larped much myself and am really nervous about it – but I’m convinced it’ll be fun!) So if you’re interested, please sign up – and feel free to forward this email to anyone else you know who might be interested.

But how can we teach civics and ethics? How are we already learning this? My new book, *We the Gamers*, explores *how we connect, communicate, analyze, and discover* when we play games. Games can be used in ethics, civics, and social studies education to inspire learning, critical thinking, and civic change. *We the Gamers* shares *a range of examples* including board and card games, online games, virtual reality and augmented reality games, and digital games like *Minecraft*,* Executive Command*, *Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes*, *Fortnite*, *When Rivers Were Trails*, *PolitiCraft*, *Quandary*, and *Animal Crossing: New Horizons*. *We the Gamers* also explores the obstacles to learning with games and *how to overcome those obstacles* by encouraging equity and inclusion, care and compassion, and fairness and justice. Featuring helpful tips and case studies, *We the Gamers* shows educators the strengths and limitations of using games in civics education. *Let’s imagine how we might repair and remake our world through gaming, together.* Take care, Kat ----------------------------------------- Dr. Karen (Kat) Schrier http://www.karenschrier.com www.twitter.com/drgamermom Associate Professor & Director, Games & Emerging Media program, Marist College Author, *We the Gamers* <https://gamesforcivics.com/> (Oxford University Press) Author, *Knowledge Games <https://jhupbooks.press.jhu.edu/content/knowledge-games>* (Johns Hopkins University Press) Editor, *Learning, Education, & Games <https://gamesforgrowing.com/> book *series (ETC Press/Carnegie Mellon) Author, Designing Ourselves <https://www.adl.org/media/13011/download> (Center for Technology & Society)
