CASPAR BOWDEN: How the Cloud became a privacy Guantanamo
by Andrew Hoskins 01 Oct '13

01 Oct '13

Apologies for cross-posting CASPAR BOWDEN How the Cloud became a privacy Guantanamo: European complicity in facilitating NSA surveillance ADAM SMITH RESEARCH FOUNDATION LECTURE (followed by reception) Senate Room, University of Glasgow, Wednesday 6th November, 6pm. Abstract: A report<http://t.co/aO07uQGIlg> commissioned for the EU Parliament inquiry into the activities of the US National Security Agency, and effects on fundamental rights, uncovered cold trails of European policymaker complicity, leading back to the EU/US Safe Harbour negotiations around 2000. At this time, official US strategy documents proclaimed the aim of full-spectrum "information dominance", which at the time might have seemed no more that the bombast of hyperbolic military planners. The scale of capabilities that Edward Snowden has revealed, together with other contemporary sources, seem to indicate that these plans have not only been realized but surpassed. This talk will reflect on cultural, political , academic, bureaucratic and economic strata which allowed the construction, in secret, of an apparatus beyond Orwell's (or Terry Gilliam's) imagination in just the past few years. What were the securocrats thinking, and how do they think about the lives and interests of those they claim to protect? Caspar Bowden is an independent advocate for informational privacy rights, and public understanding of privacy research in computer science. He is a specialist in EU Data Protection, European and US surveillance law, PET research, identity management, and information ethics. He co-authored the 2012 report to the European Parliament on Cloud computing, which anticipated risks to EU data sovereignty from "PRISM". For nine years he was Chief Privacy Adviser for Microsoft for forty countries, and previously co-founded and was first director of the Foundation for Information Policy Research (www.fipr.org<http://www.fipr.org/>). He was an expert adviser for UK Parliamentary legislation, and co-organized six public conferences on encryption, data retention, and interception policy. He has previous careers in financial engineering and risk management, and software engineering (systems, 3D games, applied cryptography), including work with Goldman Sachs, Microsoft Consulting Services, Acorn, Research Machines, and IBM. He founded the Award for Outstanding Research in Privacy Enhancing Technologies, is a fellow of the British Computer Society, and a member of the advisory bodies of several civil society associations. This Adam Smith Reseach Foundation<http://www.gla.ac.uk/researchinstitutes/adamsmith/> Lecture is organised in association with the ESRC research seminar series Digital Policy: Connectivity, Creativity and Rights<http://arts.brighton.ac.uk/projects/esrc-research-seminar-series> (ES/I001816/2) led by Prof. Gillian Youngs, University of Brighton.

Deadline extension - Shared Machine Shops
by Mathieu ONeil 01 Oct '13

01 Oct '13

Call for Papers - Special issue of the Journal of Peer Production Shared Machine Shops: Beyond Local Prototyping and Manufacturing Deadline extended by two weeks - 15 October 2013 Editors: Maxigas (Universitat Oberta de Catalunya), Peter Troxler (International Fab Lab Association, Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences) In the last years we have witnessed an incredible proliferation of shared machine shops in a confusing number of genres: hackerspaces, makerspaces, Fab Labs and their more commercial counterparts such as TechShops, co-working spaces, accelerators and incubators. These are currently "fringe phenomena" because they play a minor role in the production of wealth, knowledge, political consensus and the social organisation of life. Interestingly, however, they also experience the same core transformations as contemporary capitalism. That is, for the individual: the convergence of work, labour and other aspects of life. On a systemic level: the rapid development of algorithmically driven technical systems and their intensifying role in social organisation. Finally, as a corollary: the practical and legitimation crisis of modern institutions, echoed by renewed attempts at self-organisation. Arguably, hackers occupied such an ambiguous position since the beginning of hackerdom, but shared machine shops represent a new configuration. They appear as embodied communities organised in research and production units of physical and logical goods; they even appear to escape the subcultural ghetto as educational institutions, museums, and libraries start to integrate them into their ambit. They are eminent laboratories in both their practices and products: as experimental forms of social institutions, and as the developers of technological prototypes projecting new visions of the future. Industry actors, state authorities and policy makers have recognised such milieus as prolific grounds for recruitment and new organisational models, which in itself warrants critical attention. Inspired by all these developments, we dedicate the next special issue of the Journal of Peer Production to Fab Labs and similar places. Some of the questions we are interested in exploring: * What are the historical conditions and concrete genealogies which enabled the emergence of shared machine shops? (Can we talk about the renewed relevance of craftsmanship?) * Are rapid prototyping practices changing the relationships to technology, research and development, and innovation? (Are shared machine shops democratising knowledge and production or rather building a new maker elite?) * How do technologies cultivated in shared machine shops such as personal fabrication intervene in urban and rural geographies? (Is the time ripe for "global villages" or we have to adapt to "smart cities"?) * What new and old anthropologies and ethics are articulated in shared machine shops? (Who is the “New Man” of Peer Production?) * Finally, how do shared machine shops interface with the political economy of contemporary capitalism and the military-industrial complex? (If the means of production are in the hands of the workers, is that free labour, a new form of outsourcing, or the germ for a next revolution?) Beyond local prototyping and manufacturing capability, what is the contribution of shared machine shops to critical practices of technology appropriation, to products, services and consumption patterns, to urban and rural geographies, and to practical political economy and ethics? Contributions are welcome from scholars and practitioners alike. Collaborative efforts are encouraged. We are mainly expecting academic papers on the one hand, and commented project documentations or narrative vignettes on the other hand, but anything that can be presented on a website could work. However, submitters are advised to keep in mind that the content should address questions of consequence to practitioners, based on realities on the ground, while at the same time they should be reflexive and consider their wider intellectual context. Submission proposals of up to 500 words due by September 30th, 2013, and should be sent to fablabissue(a)peerproduction.net. Submissions will be notified by October 30, 2013, and full papers and materials (research papers around 8,000 words, testimonies and documents around 3,000 words) are due by January 31st, 2014, for review. Final submission deadline is June 1st, 2014. The special issue is due to appear in early July 2014. Research papers are peer reviewed according to JoPP review policies.

Four Job Postings: Cluster hire in Civic Media
by Eric Gordon 01 Oct '13

01 Oct '13

We have four assistant professor positions open at Emerson College in the area of civic media, including positions in games, big data, digital media and culture and communication studies. Please read below and follow the link for details. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at eric_gordon(a)emerson.edu<mailto:eric_gordon@emerson.edu> Emerson College is pleased to announce a major faculty hiring initiative in civic media. Building on the Colleges strengths in communication and the arts and supporting the Colleges strategic initiatives in civic and global engagement, we seek to develop a distinguished faculty that addresses connections among media innovation, technologies, social networks and global citizenship. There is a need to consider how the changes brought by digital media are shaping political and social life, along with definitions of governance and citizenship. How people make and use media (whether it's a film or a tweet) to engage with the world, to make change, to be informed, or to connect across national borders, are topic areas that span the arts, sciences, humanities and social sciences. The new faculty hires in Journalism, Visual and Media Arts, Communication Studies, and the Institute for Liberal Arts and Interdisciplinary Studies will form a distinctive interdisciplinary faculty cohort that intersects with students from across the College. While faculty members will have their primary appointments within one of the four participating units, they will share teaching responsibilities with the new College-wide minor in Digital Media and Culture, and have a research affiliation with the Emerson Engagement Labs (EEL). All the new faculty hires will begin August 28, 2014. http://chronicle.com/jobs/0000795328-01/ Eric Gordon Fellow, Berkman Center for Internet and Society Harvard University Director, Engagement Game Lab Associate Professor, Emerson College http://engagementgamelab.org (617) 824-8828

As individuals participate in these platforms and services, we open ourselves up to new forms of surveillance and monitoring, not only by state authorities but also by private marketers. A whole new industry of social media analysis has been created that aims to perfect algorithms in order to turn personal user data into profit. While some may welcome “customized advertising,” the data mining processes that have emerged over the past few years have far-reaching implications for our everyday lives. Teaching Media Quarterly is seeking materials that critically explore the relationship between surveillance and new media. Potential topics engaging with new media surveillance might include, but are not limited to, assignments and lessons that address any of the following: - political economy of social media platforms - data mining, collection, storage, and the use of this data by a range of actors - use of social media by law enforcement agencies - customized/targeted advertising - tracking software/cookies that monitor consumer behavior/patterns - critical interrogations of consumer power and new media - user/student perspectives on data mining and privacy issues - social classification and discrimination through data mining - ethics of data mining - policy and regulation of data mining Teaching Media Quarterly Submission Guidelines & Review Policy Teaching Media Quarterly seeks innovative assignments and lessons that can be used to critically engage with “new media and surveillance” in the undergraduate classroom. All submissions must include: 1) a title, 2) an overview and comprehensive rationale (250-500 words), 3) a detailed lesson plan or assignment instructions, 4) teaching materials (handouts, rubrics, discussion prompts, viewing guides, etc.), 5) a full bibliography of readings, links, and/or media examples, and 6) a short biography (100-150 words). Please email all submissions in ONE Microsoft Word document to teachingmedia.contact(a)gmail.com. SUBMISSION DEADLINE: October 31, 2013 Submissions will be reviewed by each member of the editorial board. Editors will make acceptance decisions based on their vision for the issue and an assessment of contributions. It is the goal of Teaching Media Quarterly to notify submitters of the editors’ decisions within two weeks of submission receipt. Teaching Media Quarterly is dedicated to circulating practical and timely approaches to media concepts and topics from a variety of disciplinary and methodological perspectives. Our goal is to promote collaborative exchange of undergraduate teaching resources between media educators at higher education institutions. As we hope for continuing discussions and exchange as well as contributions to Teaching Media Quarterly we encourage you to visit our website at http://www.teachingmedia.org/ Best, Teaching Media Quarterly Editorial Board Jacquelyn Arcy Mia Fischer Julie Wight Heidi Zimmerman University of Minnesota _______________________________________________ Qstudy-l mailing list Qstudy-l(a)mailman.rice.edu https://mailman.rice.edu/mailman/listinfo/qstudy-l
