Tutorial: Digest - receiving multiple emails as one
by Ulla Bunz 17 Aug '04

17 Aug '04

I am resending these instructions as several people still seem to experience difficulties since the transition to the new listserve software. If you would like to receive all aoir messages of one day in one email, rather than in individual emails, then please follow the instructions below and set your personal options to "digest." Unfortunately, you will have to do this yourself, but you will see it's a quick and easy process. Hope this helps. Ulla 1) Go to http://listserv.aoir.org/listinfo.cgi/air-l-aoir.org 2) scroll all the way down until you see the button "unsubscribe or edit options" 3) enter your email address (the one that is subscribed to the Listserve) and click on the button 4) On the new page (it has blue bars) that loads, the third and last option is to send a password reminder. Click on the button, leave the browser open, then check your email account for a message from aoir that includes your new listserve password. 5) To change the new password back to your own one, or to change the digest and other options, return to the "new" (blue) page and log in 6) On the third page (it has yellow bars and has lots and lots of options) you can change your password, set your delivery options, etc. Just scroll down all the way. If I remember correctly, the "digest" option is in the big grey box. -- Ulla Bunz Assistant Professor Department of Communication Rutgers University 4 Huntington Street New Brunswick, NJ 08901

Dear all I also suspect that what has happened is that, because we have changed comptuer host for the list, there has been a change of the way the email is delivered from digest to individual emails - as indicated in previous posts you can change back to digest easily - follow the directions :). We'd hate to lose all the wonderful discussion here Cheers Matt Dr Matthew Allen Associate Professor Internet Studies Associate Dean Teaching and Learning, Humanities Curtin University of Technology, CRICOS 00301J Australia m.allen(a)curtin.edu.au http://smi.curtin.edu.au/netstudies/allen.htm +61 8 92663511 (v) +61 8 9266 3166 (f) Vice-President, Association of Internet Researchers http://www.aoir.org

CFP: Representations of Digital Identity (CSCW Workshop)
by aoir.z3z＠danah.org 16 Aug '04

Representations of Digital Identity URL :: http://sims.berkeley.edu/~dmb/cscw2004-identity/ CSCW Workshop: Saturday November 6, 2004 - Chicago Position Paper Deadline: September 20, 2004 - cscw04-identity(a)googlegroups.com Organizers: - danah boyd :: http://www.danah.org/ - Michele Chang :: http://www.intel.com/research/people/bios/chang_m.htm - Elizabeth Goodman :: http://www.confectious.net/ The human body operates as a rich site for information. As we pass through the world, we give off information about cultural identity (ethnicity, sex, age, etc), social class, individual personality (through dress or physical alterations) and psychological state (through movement and tone of voice). These cues help others determine the appropriate modes of interaction with us. In computer-mediated communication (CMC), the performance of identity occurs not through direct experience of the body but within the constraints of digital representations constructed by interactive systems. This workshop will address the many ways by which online presentations of self have been and could be constructed. In the absence of the body as a source of accountability and social legibility, individuals project a sense of self through multiple layers of mediation, including email addresses, graphic avatars, "friend lists," and results from search engines. How can we use the body in a mediated world? Or alternately, how can we promote rich modes of interaction that do not rely on the illusion of physical presence? Moving from current practices to future scenarios, the workshop will use a design exercise to produce a conceptual framework promoting accountability, expression, and trust in online interactions. We invite contributions from researchers exploring social aspects of CMC, including, but not limited to: blogging, gaming, online dating, mobile and ubiquitous social devices. Furthermore, researchers interested in reputation, trust, privacy and vulnerability; social networks, identity, persistent conversations, and context are encouraged to apply. Participants will be selected based on demonstrable interest in the topic, as seen through position papers submitted prior to the workshop. Proposals should consist of - A sketch, design, or other constructed representation of digital identity; alternatively, a collage of existing representations of digital identity - A 1-page discussion of the critical issues considered in this representation and the process of producing it. - A 1-page discussion of background, interests, current work and motivation for participating in this workshop Acceptable submission formats include: Word, PDF, HTML, Flash, Quicktime, etc. Contact organizers if you are concerned about the submission format: danah boyd, Michele Chang, Elizabeth Goodman (cscw04-identity(a)googlegroups.com)
