A seminar on socio-history of computing
Dear Colleagues,
This message is to inform you about the first session of the 2024-2025 Socio-History of Computing Seminar, a research seminar organized by the HT2S laboratory research center at the National Conservatory of Arts and Crafts in Paris. The seminar aims to explore new narratives of the long-term history of computing, focusing on how computing intertwines with social, economic, political, and cultural issues. Every two months, we will invite a researcher in the history and/or anthropology and sociology (with a historical or diachronic perspective) of computing to present their work. Some sessions will be held in French, others in English.
A presentation of our approach can be read herehttps://sohistinfo.github.io/english/ and we are lookig forward for lively discussions in the STS community!
The first session will take place online and at the Cnam in Paris on Monday, October 14, 2024, from 3 PM to 5 PM, with Ksenia Ermoshina and Boris Melnichenko (Internet and Societies Center, CNRS) presenting on the topic: "A 'Sovereign Intelligence'? Infrastructures, Representations, and the Geopolitics of Russian AI, a Comparative Approach." The discussion will be moderated by Benjamin Brbaumer (Sciences Po Bordeaux). The presentation will be in French.

A connection link (Big Blue Button) will be sent the day before the presentation for those attending remotely.
On behalf of the organizing committee: Mathilde Fichen (PhD student, HT2S), Adrien Tournier (PhD student, HT2S), et Camille Paloque-Bergs (researcher, HT2S)
Best regards,
