[Air-L] Birds of a Feather at 2019 AoIR Conference

Tue Sep 17 14:28:23 PDT 2019

Hi Zoe,
Let's connect. I do digital ethnography work as well, but will not be in Brisbane for the conference. Let's connect after and see if there are similar research interests!

    Hi everyone,

    I really like the idea of these 'Birds of a Feather' meetings, it seems like a great opportunity to meet people with similar research interests/problems.

    With that in mind, I would like to propose a meeting of digital ethnographers! My background is in anthropology and I combine online-, offline- and autoethnography in my PhD research on the labour of YouTube creators. It would be great to meet some fellow digital ethnographers, especially as they're hard to find in my local academic community, and talk about approaches/problems.

    Can I propose, as Jonathon suggested below, going to a pub or park or something on Thursday evening? Reply directly to let me know if you're interested and if there are enough of us (say 5+) then I'll send an email to the group.

    Can't wait to be in Brisbane soon (though can wait for the 24 hour flight 🤯)

    Best,
    Zoe

    Subject: [Air-L] Birds of a Feather at 2019 AoIR Conference

    Hello AoIRists,

    This year at the 2019 AoIR conference, we are once again encouraging attendees to gather together to discuss areas of shared interest. These meetings are referred to as ‘Birds of a Feather’, because they, well, flock together.

    While these meetings are not formally organised by the Conference Committee, we encourage AoIR members to post ideas on potential areas of interest, research, and projects to the AoIR mailing-list to seek interest from other members and conference attendees.

    Ideally, areas of interest will flock organically and in an inclusive manner, so please don’t be afraid to nominate your idea (and yourself!) for one of these sessions.

    The conference program this year leaves your time free on the Thursday evening, and if you opt out of our expertly crafted social outings, you might also consider flocking together on Friday evening.

    We think the best way to gather is in a social setting in one of the amazing spaces located around Brisbane’s city centre. Below is a list of places we think suit the Birds of a Feather concept very well, but please do get in touch if you require specific kinds of locations and/or resources. And if you’re gathering together as a large group, do make sure to book a table or room at your venue ahead of time, to make sure there’s enough space.

    On Brisbane’s South Bank, just across the river from QUT, you’ll find bars and cafes around Stanley St Plaza: https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eatsouthbank.com.au%2Fdining-guide%2Fprecincts%2Fstanley-street-plaza%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C4132e55967ae46cec97608d73b5d3b5b%7C2526db3cd5034dfea0e60c41a20b52d2%7C0%7C0%7C637043143934697616&sdata=wqbXJqdflXKCkt%2FkfyivgGtJ4aN4e6H9Fn%2BOPkGbbFA%3D&reserved=0, and more cafes and restaurants on Little Stanley St: https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eatsouthbank.com.au%2Fdining-guide%2Fprecincts%2Flittle-stanley-street%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C4132e55967ae46cec97608d73b5d3b5b%7C2526db3cd5034dfea0e60c41a20b52d2%7C0%7C0%7C637043143934697616&sdata=F3z%2BRMxrf%2FD3vx6SKpR9lUSVmbFKK%2Bev8UDnIqtefGA%3D&reserved=0

    At Howard Smith Wharves, under the Story Bridge, various new pubs, bars, and restaurants have opened recently: https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fhowardsmithwharves.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C4132e55967ae46cec97608d73b5d3b5b%7C2526db3cd5034dfea0e60c41a20b52d2%7C0%7C0%7C637043143934697616&sdata=x8Zf0gp3TKdzFGj7b%2FknV%2Fo%2F1KMVRXSNio0C%2FhaVTmM%3D&reserved=0

    In Fish Lane, South Brisbane, there are various quirky bars and restaurants: https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fexplorefishlane.com.au%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C4132e55967ae46cec97608d73b5d3b5b%7C2526db3cd5034dfea0e60c41a20b52d2%7C0%7C0%7C637043143934697616&sdata=JOJdSYxqj878pa3ldENug96gg8BhitWV2mOp0mDE6fY%3D&reserved=0
