Book Announcement: Coping with Illness Digitally
by Rains, Stephen A - (srains) 25 Mar '19

25 Mar '19

Book Announcement Title: Coping with Illness Digitally (MIT Press) By: Steve Rains, University of Arizona Overview: Communication technologies have become a valuable resource for responding to the profound challenges posed by illness. Medical websites make it possible to find information about specific health conditions, e-mail provides a means to communicate with health care providers, social network sites can be used to solidify existing relationships, online communities provide opportunities for expanding support networks, and blogs offer a forum for articulating illness-related experiences. In this book, Stephen Rains examines this kind of “digital coping” involving the use of communication technologies, particularly social media, in responding to illness. Synthesizing a diverse body of existing empirical research, Rains offers the first book-length exploration of what it means to cope with illness digitally. Rains examines the implications of digital communication technologies on a series of specific challenges raised by illness and discusses the unique affordances of these technologies as coping resources. He considers patients' motivations for forging relationships online and the structure of those networks; the exchange of social support and the outcomes of sharing illness experiences; online health information searches by patients and surrogates; the effects of Internet use on patient-provider communication; and digital coping mechanisms for end-of-life and bereavement, including telehospice, social media memorials, and online grief support. Finally, Rains presents an original model of digital coping that builds on issues discussed to summarize how and with what effects patients use communication technologies to cope with illness.

CfP. Caring Media Futures - International Journal of Cultural Studies
by Jaz Choi 25 Mar '19

25 Mar '19

International Journal of Cultural Studies Call for papers: Caring Media Futures Whether it is a moral-ethical imperative, an instinct of survival, or a social responsibility, care and caring are fundamental to human existence, and cultures. This special issue recognises the importance of media cultures and technologies in enabling affective care-at-a-distance and mobile intimacies in the provision of formal and informal, paid and unpaid care. Globally, the rapid increase of ageing populations has required the support of technological services in the form of artificial intelligence, robotics and automation. This form of caring media is increasingly normalised and practiced through wearable safety devices, mobile phones, apps, robots, virtual reality, and animals. All of these operate as care-giving agencies, supporting, replacing and enhancing human-to-human labours of care. These media technologies raise important questions about design capacities and implementations that may enhance or prohibit the agency, privacy, sociality, imagination, and quality of life of those in or receiving care. Taking care seriously requires recalibrating the ways in which it has been feminised and under- valued socially and economically, despite its pivotal role in all societies. Examples include increasing chains of migrant labour to serve more economically developed countries facing burgeoning ageing populations without adequate infrastructures, and; the growing body of digital technologies promoting informal care for self and others without necessarily involving significant professional knowledge or support. How can cultural studies researchers deploy care across their methods, theories and implementation? How might cultural studies bring a critical lens to care practices imagined in tech industries, social services, media discourses and practices? And lastly, how might this critical lens bring into focus temporalities and embodiments of care through media forms and practices? For example, what does it mean to look after someone in this media landscape? And how might predictive automation reconfigure temporal and spatial metaphors in the language/service of care? Caring Media Futures seeks to bring together a variety of interdisciplinary papers exploring how care cultures are shaping, and being shaped by, media practices and theories. Drawing on cultural studies’ strong history in challenging the gendering and undervaluing of certain labour and informal practices, this special issue calls for the need to take care seriously in the imaginaries of future work and life. As such, we are particularly interested in contributions that address the following themes: - Feminist analysis of digital health and care - Informal care cultures around ageing, disability, illness, dying and death - The rise of cyberphysical systems around caring practices - The ‘place’ of non-human companions in labours of care - Cross-cultural and interdisciplinary studies on the relationship between care, labour, and media - Methods of engagement, research, and practice with and for care - Redefinitions of care in future ageing localities - Challenges for urban and regional contexts Guest editors - Margaret Gibson, Senior Lecturer School of Humanities, Languages and Social Science, Griffith University, Australia margaret.gibson(a)griffith.edu.au<mailto:margaret.gibson@griffith.edu.au> - Larissa Hjorth, Director, Design and Creative Practice Platform, RMIT University, Australia larissa.hjorth(a)rmit.edu.au<mailto:larissa.hjorth@rmit.edu.au> - Jaz Hee-jeong Choi, Vice-chancellor’s Senior Research Fellow, College of Design and Social Context, RMIT University, Australia jaz.hee-jeong.choi(a)rmit.edu.au<mailto:jaz.hee-jeong.choi@rmit.edu.au> Timeline Abstract submission deadline: 30 June 2019 Notification of selection/invitation: 31 July 2019 Full paper deadline: 1 January 2020.

Call for Participation: Data & Society Workshop on Tech & Organizations, 6/14
by Elizabeth Anne Watkins 25 Mar '19

25 Mar '19

Dear Colleagues (with apologies for cross-posting), The Data & Society Research Institute in NYC seeks applications for an upcoming multi-disciplinary one-day workshop on the integration of technology into organizations. Please do share with your networks far and wide, and don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. *Call for Workshop Participation* *Algorithms on the Shop Floor: Data-driven Technologies in Organizational Context* Deadline for applications: April 19, 2019 Workshop date: June 14, 2019 in NYC at Data & Society Application link: http://datasociety.net/algorithms-on-the-shop-floor For questions, email events(a)datasociety.net On June 14, 2019, Data & Society will host a workshop in NYC on the intersection of technology and organizational theory and practice. The workshop arises from an increasing need to understand how automated, algorithmic, AI, or otherwise data-driven technologies are being integrated into organizational contexts and processes. The workshop will convene researchers who study how new technologies are introduced, incorporated, resisted or maintained within organized groups, and the changes this integration brings. Such changes might include processes (workflows, tasks, “re-skilling,” “changed” skills, augmentation) or in structures (roles, jurisdictions, authority), or other key sociological issues (such as power, culture, diversity, expertise, risk, rationality, legitimacy, and solidarity). In a world where new technologies are being integrated into organizations of all sizes and types, how can we make sense of what gets lost, what gets gained, and what gets changed? Many of these questions are long standing themes in organizational studies and ethnographies examining the social complexities of working on the machine shop floor, to which the title of our workshop alludes. Still, how do such integrations provoke new shifts in power relations and social values? The range of field sites and research questions appropriate for this event is wide. The only requirements for participation are that: 1) you must be a researcher (with or without an academic affiliation); 2) your research questions must address a dimension of socio-technical practice in the context of a formalized organization. Relevant topics for this workshop might include: How do formations of power, hierarchy, and discretionary decision-making change when automated and AI technologies are introduced? How are issues of diversity and equity brought into and reconstituted when new technologies are introduced? How does the integration of new technologies into organizations intersect with issues of access, inclusion, and disability? What are sites of unintended use, resistance, or deviance with respect to technology in organizations? How are new forms of expertise, skill, and training emerging to meet demands of using new technologies in the workplace? How are new or existing labor organizations confronting the perceived threat of AI? What are organizational formations or organizational processes that build on digital technologies to advance equity and social justice? What lessons does the history of organizational theory and practice hold for contemporary dynamics? How are bureaucratic forms of control (such as auditing or impact policy) integrated into the development of technology? These examples are by no means exhaustive, but intended to provide a flavor of the kind of relevant research questions. We are especially interested in strange outliers and unexpected studies. Key Dates * Application Deadline: April 19, 2019 * Selection Decisions: May 1, 2019 * Full Paper Deadline: May 28, 2019 * Workshop: June 14, 2019 Participation Requirements The structure of the Data & Society Workshop series is designed to maximize scholarly thinking about the evolving and societally important issues surrounding data-driven technologies. Participants will be asked to read three full papers in advance of the event and prepare comments for intensive discussion. Some participants will be asked to be discussants of papers, where they will lead the conversation and engage the room. Authors will not present their work, but rather participate in critical discussion with the assembled group about the paper, with explicit intent of making the work stronger and more interdisciplinary. All participants are required to read three papers in advance of the event and come ready to offer constructively critical feedback. We want researchers to constructively spar with and challenge one another to strengthen ourselves across the board. This is not an event for passive attendance, but an opportunity to engage each other substantively. This event is first and foremost an opportunity to collectively think and help construct a field. Although this event is designed to bring together 30-40 researchers, only 12 papers will be workshopped. Yet, everyone who attends is expected to be an active participant and contribute to rich conversations. We believe that it is through active engagement with other scholars around research that new insights can emerge. In other words, this event is designed to be the kind of intense intellectual engagement that made you fall in love with being a researcher in the first place. Format The day will be organized into three time slots, each 75 minutes long. One paper will be workshopped in each session. Multiple sessions will run in parallel so there will be a total of ~12 papers, but each participant will only be responsible for reading and engaging with 3. Within each group, a discussant will open with a critique of the paper before inviting participants to share their feedback. (If you participate in this event, you may be asked to be a discussant on one paper.) All are expected to share feedback, with author response towards the end of the session. Logistics The event will take place on June 14, 2019, and will run from 8:45am to 6pm. Paper sessions will run until 4:15pm; afterwards, there will be a reception for all participants. All meals will be covered during the event. Unfortunately, we have limited funding to support travel for this workshop; however, we’re happy to provide a formal invitation for participation/“speaking” to anyone who may need it to secure their own funding. Application Process (Deadline: April 19) For this event, we are looking to bring together researchers from diverse disciplines studying technology in organizations. This can include management, organization studies, communications, information studies, computer-supported cooperative work, computer-human interaction, science and technology studies, ethics, labor, law, policy, anthropology, and design research. As a result, attendees should expect to engage with scholars who are outside of their field of study. We ask that attendees think of the Data & Society Workshop series as an opportunity to engage with a broader cross-disciplinary field, and to strengthen both relationships and research through participation in the workshop. Because the paper submission date is only a few weeks after the application deadline, you should only apply as an author if you have a paper that you’re actively writing right now and will be ready to share a draft with others by May 28, 2019. If you aren’t already working on this paper, you probably aren’t in a good position to workshop it at this event. Appropriate papers may be a work-in-progress book chapter or a journal article. (Full-length books are a bit too much for this event, so if you’re writing a book, think about the chapter that you most want to get feedback on.) To apply as an author, please submit the following: * Name, affiliation, title, email address, discipline. * Big research question you’re seeking to answer with your research. * Paper title + 100-250 word abstract. * The current half-baked, thick-outline, total mess of the paper.** ** We are asking for the disaster of a paper to understand where you are with the piece now, and the arguments you intend to make, so that we can appropriately match you to a discussant. We won’t share this version with anyone (we promise). Please note: All co-authors for papers must apply separately. If your co-author doesn’t apply, we will assume that s/he is not interested in attending the workshop. It will be hard to add additional participants later, so make sure your co-authors apply if they want to attend. To apply as a participant/discussant, please submit the following: * Name, affiliation, title, email address, discipline. * Big research question you’re seeking to answer with your research. * 100-250 word description of your research.
