I just came across an amazing-looking multi-disciplinary symposium on privacy and surveillance at Berekely: Unblinking: New Perspectives on Visual Privacy in the 21st Century.
The program is quite impressive, including Ian Kerr (who gave the keynote last week at our IINW symposium), Julie Cohen, and Helen Nissenbaum (my dissertation advisor).
I’d love to attend, but it is the same weekend as the annual meeting of the Society for Social Studies of Science in Vancouver, where I will be presenting the paper on the “Values and pragmatic action: The challenges of engagement with technical design communities” that Noëmi Manders-Huits and I have been working on.
