<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi All,</div><div><br></div>The e-seminar format David had in mind based on the Ling. Ethnography one, which is similar to a very successful one I'm familiar with of a Media Anthropology network, gives a few days for a discussion of the author of the piece discussed response to be further responded to. This is so as to give an opportunity to disperse the last word among list members. I personally like this format and suggest that we give a few more days, until the originally designated 22/2, to substantive comments. Of course, I have a vested interest this time, as I spent several hours formulating my response.<div><br></div><div>Then, since it is our first try, it would indeed be very good, as Wendy suggests, to debrief about the process and see if we want to modify the format and address the other issues as well. I have my thoughts but will keep them for later.</div><div><br></div><div>And while I'm at it, here's a link to a NY Review of Books article that came out a couple of weeks ago and touches on some of the points relating to the digital environment that came up in our discussion, in case you haven't seen it. It was re-circulated to subscribers today, which I think means it has been widely read</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.nybooks.com/articles/2016/02/25/we-are-hopelessly-hooked/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=NYR%20Scalia%20and%20the%20constitution%20the%20chess%20master%20and%20the%20computer&utm_content=NYR%20Scalia%20and%20the%20constitution%20the%20chess%20master%20and%20the%20computer+CID_2f5f707cfcfac768f69ce5f00a044059&utm_source=Newsletter&utm_term=We%20Are%20Hopelessly%20Hooked">http://www.nybooks.com/articles/2016/02/25/we-are-hopelessly-hooked/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=NYR%20Scalia%20and%20the%20constitution%20the%20chess%20master%20and%20the%20computer&utm_content=NYR%20Scalia%20and%20the%20constitution%20the%20chess%20master%20and%20the%20computer+CID_2f5f707cfcfac768f69ce5f00a044059&utm_source=Newsletter&utm_term=We%20Are%20Hopelessly%20Hooked</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>All best,</div><div>Tamar</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Feb 17, 2016 at 7:04 PM, Wendy Leeds-Hurwitz <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:wendy.leeds.hurwitz@gmail.com" target="_blank">wendy.leeds.hurwitz@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><div>First, of course, I want to add my thanks to David for organizing this e-seminar, to Tamar for the initial and final statements framing the conversation, and to everyone who participated. <br><br></div>Second, rather than picking up any of the threads mentioned to this point, I want to ask the group to spend a little time thinking about what comes next. As we are still at the beginning of figuring out how online
"conversations" of this sort can be retrieved, cited, etc., this should
be a good moment to ask about process, not in EC, but at a meta level,
for this conversation about EC. How does this conversation become more broadly accessible, or was the goal to reach only those who have participated to this point, whether through comments or reading the comments of others? I guess what I am asking is what existing models others are aware of for turning this discussion into a more "stable" form. Of course, anyone can follow the thread on the listserve in future - but do people really do that very often? I've seen all the comments on a topic turned into a PDF that can be downloaded all at once, for example, which has the advantages of preserving the conversational style, while making access a bit easier. In fact, David sent me one such transcript as a model, when he invited me to participate (a Ling-Ethnog e-seminar from 2015). So that's one possibility. Of course, there's always the possibility of planning a conference panel on a related topic, or preparing a publication (a journal special issue or a book, I guess, since an article with all these authors might be a bit difficult). That has the advantage of stability, but would take a lot of time and effort, and loses the spontaneity of an online conversation. What other ideas do others have, whether or not they have been tested previously?<br><br></div>Wendy<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Feb 17, 2016 at 8:45 AM, David Boromisza-Habashi <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:david.boromisza@colorado.edu" target="_blank">david.boromisza@colorado.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<p>Tamar had graciously agreed to write a "response to responses" - please find it attached.</p>

<p>We still have a few days until the official end of this e-seminar (2/22). I would like to encourage all of you to respond to Tamar and to everyone else who joined this conversation over the past couple of weeks.</p>
