[Air-L] "Construction" of Users

[Nicholas John Proferes III]

Hi Alex,

I'd also recommend Sally Wyatt's piece "Non–users also matter: The construction of users and non–users of the Internet" from Oudshoorn and Pinch's edited collection "How users matter: The co-construction of users and technologies."

Best,
Nicholas

Subject: [Air-L] "Construction" of Users

Hi AoIR!

I'm looking for resources on constructions of the user. I know there's some
cultural studies work in this area (e.g., Oudshoorn & Pinch, "How Users
Matter"), but I'm looking for a little more from the technical/design/HCI
side: namely, how users are constructed technically within computational
systems.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Alex
