[Ethnocomm] Blue sky workshops

[Olga Leontovich]

 Dear colleagues,
I think that the discussion of different cultural perspectives on communication research might be fascinating. We, Russian scholars, find it difficult to fit into the Western scholarly discourse, to have our papers published, etc., partially, I think, because of different traditions of inquiry and presentation of results.  I haven't heard Peter Vorderer in Seattle, but he spoke about this in London last year. I don't think I'll be able to make it to Puerto Rico (too far away), but maybe we'll be able to think of other forms of "presence", like Skype?

>As much as possible we would like this (to-be-proposed) workshop to focus on questions and experiences related to scholarly conversations between EC-based research and *theorizing* in other traditions of inquiry. To state our interests
 crudely, we are thinking about inviting folks to address questions like, What happens when ethnographers of communication attempt to make a contribution to the study of subjects with rich and varied theoretical traditions such as memory, globalization, dialogue,
 design, peace, conflict, violence, democracy, social justice, etc., etc.? What are some related challenges, opportunities, trade-offs, and victories?

>Tell me if I'm way off here but it sounds to me like you are interested in a conversation about combining methodological approaches. This is not exactly the type of conversation Leah and I are looking for, but if you (or anyone else
 on this list!) would like to chat more about this BSW feel free to send me an email off-list.

>>>Blue Sky Workshops
>>>Continuing in the tradition begun by Peter Vorderer in Seattle, the 2015 ICA Annual Conference in San Juan will offer “Blue Sky Workshops.” These are designed to be open conversation meetings that session chairs dedicate to specific research or professional
 development issues. The session format is flexible and can be individualized by the chairs. The objective, however, is not to replicate the standard format of single presenters and a listening audience, but rather to facilitate active contribution by each
 attendant. For this reason, participation is limited to approximately 20 attendees, depending on room capacity. Sessions will typically last for one standard time slot of 75 minutes. You can find the Call for Proposals for Blue Sky Workshops at:
>>>http://www.icahdq.org/conf/2015/blueskyworkshops.asp . Proposals must follow the directions outlined in the Call and should be submitted to Amy Jordan ( ajordan at asc.upenn.edu )
 by 31 December 2014. Proposals with incomplete information will not be considered for inclusion in the program.
