Hi Late to the visibility/invisibility train, but thought I’d offer the recent IJOC special section this year "The Management of Visibilities in the Digital Age” including pieces by Mikkel Flyverbom, Paul Leonardi, Cynthia Stohl, Michael Stohl, Clare Birchall, Shiv Ganesh, Jack Bratich, and myself.

cheers,

Luke
