[Air-l] Looking for conferences...

[Christer Clerwall]

Hi

Naomi, thanks for answering. I’ll try to give you all a little bit more
information.

The reason I'm not being very specific is that I don't want to limit the
possible number of answers, but maybe I'm using the wrong strategy.

I'm in the field of media and communications studies and my dissertation is
on production of large-scale web sites. My focus stems from "the production
of culture perspective" which focus on structural aspects of the production
of symbol products (music, arts, literature, science etc.). I use this
perspective to investigate how the form and content of Swedish university
web sites (that's one part of my empirical work) has changed from 1996 to
2005 (maybe 2006 will be included) due to structural constraints such as
technology and technological progress, market structure, industrial
structure and the structure of the production organization. 

I have come in contact with research on the production of news (both old
studies such as Tuchman and new Swedish studies) and other types of research
on how media is being produced and how the "product" is formed by the milieu
in which it is being produced.

I hope this gives you a little more to go on and that you can help me find
interesting and relevant conferences where this kind of topic can be
presented.

Hi,

one possibility could be the conferences organised by
Design Research Society. they occur every two years in
various parts of the world, but their focus is very
broad and just might cover your area. this year the
conference takes place in portugal and is entitled
Wonderground. the site is http://www.iade.pt/drs2006/

otherwise without knowing more specific information on
what aspects of web production are you actually
covering it is hard to suggest specific conferences
that might be of use to you.

my own specialty is online design of women's web
sites, but as part of my PHD research i talk a lot
about web production. if you could be more specific i
might have some more suggestions.

regards

noemi
