2nd Open Seminar on Sociomateriality
Exchanges on Theory and Empirical Issues Lund University, Dept. of
Informatics, May 14-15th 2018
Lecturers:
Pernille Bj?rn, Department of Computer Science | University of Copenhagen
Ulrike Schultze, Cox School of Business | Southern Methodist University
Dear Colleague,
We invite you to an open seminar on the application of theories discussed
under the umbrella term of sociomateriality (e.g. Orlikowski 2010, Schatzki
2010, Cecez-Kecmanovic et al. 2014). As a continuation of last year?s seminar,
the second Open Seminar on Sociomateriality[1] will be held in Lund, Sweden on
May 14th-15th 2018.
Themes
The purpose of the seminar is to create an environment to facilitate exchange,
discussion and debate on theoretical accounts (including ontological
assumptions) that cut across different disciplines, and, most importantly,
ideas on the operationalization of these theories/ontologies in empirical
research. We aim to foster a supportive community for scholars interested in
sociomateriality and welcome participants who draw on a variety of
perspectives. Some suggested themes are methodological implications of
sociomateriality, social implications of algorithmic phenomena, hybrid agency
and the performativity of technology. The last three themes are based on the
IFIP 8.2 2018 working conference and participants who plan to send a paper
there are encouraged to submit their draft papers.
Submissions
We invite submissions of research in various stages of progress. A wide
variety of formats are welcomed including: papers, data samples, pictorials,
video, essays, prototypes, presentations of initial ideas and reflections etc.
Irrespective of the format you choose, please submit an abstract of 200-500
words. We offer the possibility to participate in a round of written reviews
for paper submissions as well as discussants for all contributions. The
seminar will be free of charge and limited to 30 participants.
Deadlines
Please sign up for the seminar and send in your abstract by April 27th. It is
also possible to attend the seminar without a submission. If you would like to
have your paper reviewed, please state it in the abstract submission and send
us your paper by April 29th. Note that reviewing responsibilities will be
distributed among participants who choose to submit their papers for the round
of written reviews. The written reviews are due on May 7th.
For registration, submission, and any questions, please send an email to
martin.stojanov@im.uu.se.
Best regards,
Styliani Zafeiropoulou (Lund University) Martin Stojanov (Uppsala University)
Siri Wassrin (Link?ping University) Markus Ellmer (University of Salzburg)
