[emcai] FW: Studying technologized social interaction II - May 13-14th 2024 (call for participation)

[Hannah Pelikan]

Dear EMCAI-colleagues,

I just wanted to share this event with you – it might overlap with some of the challenges we have discussed in the network. The deadline to register interest in attending is *this Friday*.

During the last network meeting we also had the idea to submit the suggestion to do a small *presentation about the EMCAI network* and some of the challenges/analytic challenges that emerge with studying technology that is autonomous and potentially acts as an agent. I will attend and am happy to lead this effort, just *drop me a line if you would be interested to contribute*.

Kind regards,
Hannah

Studying Technologized Social Interaction II
(In-person seminar)
University of Helsinki, May 13 and 14th, 2024
Call for Participation

This two-day seminar is free of charge and welcomes both doctoral students and more experienced researchers to attend, present, and participate in workshops as we explore common interests, challenges, and experiences on the various topics concerning technologized interaction. We invite scholars working with recorded data from any kind of technology-mediated or technology-supported setting (e.g., educational, professional, mundane) to come and share their research and thoughts, but anyone interested in the topic is also warmly welcome. The aim is to bring together scholars with a shared interest in the study of technologized social interactions (Suchman 1987; Mlynář, González-Martínez, & Lalanne, 2018) and address the following questions:

What are the emerging and persisting trends and possibilities that the use of technologies in our daily lives has created for social interaction research? What are the complexities and challenges when conducting such research (e.g., in data collection and analysis)?
The seminar consists of:
1) A talk by keynote speaker, Professor Ilkka Arminen, from the hosting University of Helsinki, https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Ilkka-Arminen  https://helsinki.academia.edu/IlkkaArminen
2) A workshop where we will explore methodological, conceptual and practical challenges for carrying out research on technologized settings with emphasis on hands-on practice (e.g., data analysis)
3) Presentations (e.g., of research findings/settings/data) by the attendees (30 min/presenter). It is up to each presenter to decide how they wish to spend their time (e.g., how much time to spend on the presentation and joint discussion).
4) Data sessions (tbc, based on interest)

Here is the tentative schedule for the two days:
Monday, May 13th, 2024
10:00-10.30     Opening & introductions
10:30-11:30     Keynote: Ilkka Arminen: Will Artificial Intelligence be the next big technological development since Internet? How can EM/CA researchers study or
