Gloviczki Book Announcement: Mediated Narration in the Digital Age (Nebraska, 2021)
by Peter Joseph Gloviczki PhD 01 Oct '21

01 Oct '21

Friends, I'm delighted to announce that today is publication day for my book *Mediated Narration in the Digital Age: Storying the Media World*, which appears in the Frontiers of Narrative Series at University of Nebraska Press. Below is a bit of information about, and some advance praise, for the book. If you are able to utilize it in your classes, I would love to come Zoom or Skype visit with your groups. Post pandemic, I would also love to visit in person. Here is the website for the book: https://www.nebraskapress.unl.edu/nebraska/9781496217639/ Every good wish, Peter >> About the Book Mediated Narration in the Digital Age examines mediated narration from 1991 through 2018. Peter Joseph Gloviczki considers this pivotal period spanning the rise of the World Wide Web through the growth of social media to understand how contemporary media accounts storied everyday life and times of crisis. He uses examples across media culture to show that complicated issues benefit from a critical poststructuralist approach to journalism, which promotes a communitarian ethos of respect, inclusion, and dialogue. Textual analysis of a wide range of media narratives—from a 2012 YouTube clip outlining a time line of the Sandy Hook school shootings, to coverage of then-newly-discovered footage of President Roosevelt in a wheelchair in 2013, to the Cincinnati Enquirer’s 2017 piece “Seven Days of Heroin”—illustrate how theoretical concepts work in practice while explaining the new media environment. In response to the lack of awareness of news as mediated narration, Gloviczki calls for journalists to be aware of their role in meaning-making and the attendant ethical responsibilities. He provides the analysis essential to effective practice that emphasizes the connection between the individual and the community in order to more fully represent the mediated body. Praise “Gloviczki contributes in important ways to the ongoing debate about the future of journalism, a debate animated by the unprecedented potential for new media technology to revitalize our thinking about—and our commitment to—a more humane world.”—Theodore L. Glasser, professor emeritus of communication at Stanford University “A compelling, provocative, and highly instructive manifesto for new and better ways to practice the art of communication, whether the art of journalism or the art of communication, in everyday life.”—Gerry Philipsen, professor emeritus of communication at the University of Washington “Gloviczki’s book—scaffolded by an intricate grid of theories—offers a personally rooted, poignant, powerful, and accessible exposition of mediated narration’s cultural dimensions, its essential role in helping audiences navigate the complex terrains of school violence, ableism, body politics, drug addiction, and more.”—Radhika Parameswaran, Herman B. Wells Endowed Professor, The Media School at Indiana University–Bloomington “Stunning writing, bold, close to the bone: Gloviczki shows us how to show, not tell.”—Norman K. Denzin, professor emeritus of communications, Institute of Communications Research, University of Illinois “In our troubled times we depend on journalism more than ever. But like many other societal institutions, journalism, too, is challenged to give voice to the variety of our experiences, to go beyond the flatness of portrayals, and, cognizant of its power and its constraints, to encourage society to cherish that narrating differences can unite. Mediated Narration in the Digital Age is a thoughtful and insightful reminder of that.”—Viktor Mayer-Schönberger, professor of Internet governance and regulation at the University of Oxford “Mediated Narration in the Digital Age provides a prescription for a form of storytelling better equipped to ethically represent the various communities that are both journalism’s subjects and its audiences. Both sobering and hopeful, Mediated Narration in the Digital Age is an important book designed to bring twenty-first-century journalism ‘more closely into alignment with the human experience.’”—Michael X.

9th European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing (ESOCC 2022): Second Call for Contributions
by Announce Announcements 01 Oct '21

01 Oct '21

*** Second Call for Contributions *** 9th European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing (ESOCC 2022) March 22-24, 2022, Lutherstadt Wittenberg, Germany https://www.esocc-conf.eu Scope Service-oriented and cloud computing have made a huge impact both on the software industry and on the research community. Today, service and cloud technologies are applied to build large-scale software landscapes as well as to provide single software services to end users. Services today are independently developed and deployed as well as freely composed while they can be implemented in a variety of technologies, a quite important fact from a business perspective. Similarly, cloud computing aims at enabling flexibility by offering a centralised sharing of resources. The industry's need for agile and flexible software and IT systems has made cloud computing the dominating paradigm for provisioning computational resources in a scalable, on- demand fashion. Nevertheless, service developers, providers, and integrators still need to create methods, tools and techniques to support cost-effective and secure development as well as use of dependable devices, platforms, services and service- oriented applications in the cloud. The European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing (ESOCC) is the premier conference on advances in the state of the art and practice of service- oriented computing and cloud computing in Europe. The main objectives of this conference are to facilitate the exchange between researchers and practitioners in the areas of service-oriented computing and cloud computing, as well as to explore the new trends in those areas and foster future collaborations in Europe and beyond.

Breaking Things at Work (Gavin Mueller)
by camrievent 30 Sep '21

30 Sep '21

Please join us at the CAMRI seminar Thursday next week Breaking Things at Work Gavin Mueller (University of Amsterdam) Date: Thursday, 7 October 2021 Time: 17.00-19.00 Location: Online event - Zoom Meeting (please register so that we can send you the Zoom link) Registration: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/breaking-things-at-work-tickets-170527897532 In the nineteenth century, English textile workers responded to the introduction of new technologies on the factory floor by smashing them to bits. For years the Luddites roamed the English countryside, practicing drills and manoeuvres that they would later deploy on unsuspecting machines. The movement has been derided by scholars as a backwards-looking and ultimately ineffectual effort to stem the march of history. For Gavin Mueller, the movement gets at the heart of the antagonistic relationship between all workers, including us today, and the so-called progressive gains secured by new technologies. The luddites weren’t primitive and they are still a force, however unconsciously, in the workplaces of the twenty-first century world. This talk is based on material from the book Breaking Things at Work, published by Verso in 2021. Breaking Things at Work is an innovative rethinking of labour and machines, leaping from textile mills to algorithms, from existentially threatened knife cutters of rural Germany to surveillance-evading truckers driving across the continental United States. Mueller argues that the future stability and empowerment of working-class movements will depend on subverting these technologies and preventing their spread wherever possible. The task is intimidating, but the seeds of this resistance are already present in the neo-Luddite efforts of hackers, pirates, and dark web users who are challenging surveillance and control, often through older systems of communication technology. Biography Gavin Mueller is an Assistant Professor of New Media and Digital Culture at the University of Amsterdam. He is the author of Media Piracy in the Cultural Economy: Intellectual Property and Labor under Neoliberal Restructuring (published by Routledge in 2019). He is a Contributing Editor at Jacobin, and a member of the Viewpoint Magazine editorial collective.
