This special interest group invites participants to critically examine the complex interplay between interventionist Information and Communication Technology (ICT) projects and (historical) contexts of conflict and colonialism. It aims to open ...

Data annotation is indispensable to AI development; annotation tasks ranging from image labelling to toxicity detection capture contextual human judgement needed to train and sustain AI systems. Yet it is often constituted as a repetitive, standardised ...

Algorithms are introducing changes to individuals? jobs, but do algorithms also lead to changes in the structures of organizations themselves? Organizational structures, as often formalized into organization (org) charts, are meant to facilitate ...

Small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are an essential part of the global economy and paramount to local communities and employment markets. They are also considered to be particularly vulnerable to cyberattacks as they lack technical competencies, ...

Information Science (IS) researchers and practitioners aim to understand information seeking and needs across vulnerable communities. These relationships possess insider and outsider dynamics between researchers and participants. To foster ...

This PhD research project (Autumn 2024 – Spring 2027) explores interdisciplinary game development from within game development teams in Denmark. It will consist of three qualitative case studies in Danish game studios and education through which I apply ...

Ethnographic fieldnotes can contain richer and more thorough descriptions of social phenomena compared to other data sources. Their open-ended and flexible character makes them especially useful in explorative research. However, fieldnotes are typically ...

Designing new technologies to support synchronous interaction across distances has for many years focused on creating symmetry for participation between geographically distributed actors. Symmetry in synchronous interaction has, to some extent, been ...

Timbre is a nuanced yet abstractly defined concept. Its inherently subjective qualities make it challenging to design and work with. In this paper, we propose to explore the conceptualisation and negotiation of timbre within the creative practice of ...

Deciding where to work in hybrid environments involves various factors beyond work-life balance. Awareness of colleagues’ tasks arises from overheard conversations, screen glimpses, and other informal exchanges in the office. This knowledge sharing is ...

Participatory design highlights the complexity of individuals' identities, social connections, power relationships to one another, and connections to the environment in which they live. Ideal participation assumes fairness and transparency, however, fair ...

We present an exploratory, in-the-wild study in which a small hobby drone and a game controller were freely used by five people in their domestic environments, indoors and outdoors. All participants had motor disabilities affecting their arms and hands, ...

This study explores how Buddhist mindfulness as a self-reflective practice helps individuals respond to a paradox and ultimately dismantle it. To deeply immerse myself into this context, I conducted a nine-month ethnographic fieldwork in three Korean ...

A small but growing number of empirical studies have attempted to measure the impacts of algorithmic pretrial risk assessments on discrete policy goals such as decarceration, racial equity, and public safety. A separate but related body of work explores ...

Massively multiplayer online (MMO) games boomed in the late 1990s to 2000s. In parallel, ethnographic studies of these communities emerged, generally involving participant observation and interviews. Several decades on, many MMOs have been reconfigured, ...

Modern video game development relies increasingly on live service models and storytelling, putting strain on developer-player interactions and community management, the success of which is key to the success of such games. In this paper we report on a ...

Augmented Reality (AR) offers unique opportunities for contributing to zoos’ objectives of public engagement and education about animal and conservation issues. However, the diversity of animal exhibits pose challenges in designing AR applications that ...

Existing research depicts occupational learning as predominantly happening through formal education, situated learning, or a combination of the two. How career switchers might develop occupational skills outside of these established learning pathways is ...

This paper describes work practices at a public, non-profit healthcare business intelligence unit involved in creating BI reports and sharing these with healthcare management and professionals. Based on ethnographic fieldwork, we detail the various work ...

The rise of capabilities expressed by large language models has been quickly followed by the integration of the same complex systems into application level logic. Algorithms, programs, systems, and companies are built around structured prompting to black ...
